High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development Side Event

On 19 July 2016, the Government of the Republic of Uganda and the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany hosted a side-event at the High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development with the support of WHO, the SUN Movement and UNSCN.
Marking the launch of the UN Decade of Action on Nutrition (2016-2025), the event explored how governments, from across the world, are working with their partners in sustainable development to improve nutrition outcomes. Panelists discussed their progress and the challenges as they embed nutrition in national strategies for development. 

A recorded version of the event is available on: webtv.un.org.
