Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps the Government plans to take to promote good nutrition in developing countries (a) before and (b) after the G7 meeting in May 2017.
DFID will co-host a call to action on nutrition with the World Bank in Washington in April and will continue to emphasise the importance of nutrition with our G7 partners. We continue to support a range of nutrition programmes in countries in Africa, Asia and the Middle East and remain on track to meet the government’s commitment to improve the nutrition of 50 million people by 2020.
