This webinar will introduce the FSD 2024 competition winners, provide them with a platform to share their experiences utilizing the Food Systems Dashboard (FSD) in their work.
The session will highlight how participants can leverage the FSD to access and analyse food systems data.
Every year, unsafe food makes 600 million people sick and claims 420,000 lives – including 125,000 children under five (World Health Organization, 2015). These aren’t just numbers; they’re a call to action. At GAIN, we are using science and evidence to change this. For World Food Safety Day, we are spotlighting 10 ways we’ve advanced food safety over the past year.
The world is facing multiple interconnected crises, including climate change and escalating conflicts, which pose significant challenges to food systems. These issues highlight the need for systemic transformation to improve food security, nutrition, and environmental sustainability. In response, GAIN's Nourishing Food Pathways (NFP) programme aims to strengthen and support the implementation of food system pathways in 11 countries.
One focus of NFP is exploring the intersection between food and environment, including climate change, to identify consumer actions that promote both nutrition and environmental sustainability in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Specifically, GAIN is interested in understanding if our Emotivate™ approach, which leverages emotions to motivate consumers to want better diets, can be extended to include emotions or values associated with environmental sustainability. Our initial hypothesis was that consumers felt emotional tensions related to environmental sustainability as a driver of food choices, which could be leveraged to develop an emotionally resonant campaign.
Incofin Investment Management and the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN), through the Nutritious Food Financing Facility (N3F), have announced new investments in three pioneering food enterprises in East Africa: Soy Afric in Kenya, and Mkuza Chicks Ltd and Rainbow Haulage in Tanzania.
The GAIN Student Challenge returns in November 2025 for its fourth edition! This unique, two-day challenge will bring together 50 students from across the Netherlands to co-develop, alongside peers from a Sub-Saharan African University, sustainable and innovative solutions to real-world food system challenges from one of GAIN’s projects.
This brief shares an analysis of trends in stunting and overweight among children under five – two of the six Global Nutrition Targets set by the World Health Assembly (WHA) for achievement by 2025 – in 12 focus countries.
This global gathering will bring together governments, UNFSS national convenors, Rio Convention negotiators, civil society, private sector actors and more, to co-create practical, equitable, and integrated solutions across food, climate, biodiversity, and nutrition policies.
