3. Choices – at micro and macro levels – have
a direct bearing on nutrition outcomes
Good nutrition contributes to cognitive
development, better opportunities for
children to realize their potential, and
higher earnings later in life, which in
turn support macro-economic and
societal growth.
Poor nutrition impairs productivity,
acting as an impediment to national
growth.

14. Conclusions
• African governments CAN successfully reduce malnutrition.
• Nutrition needs to be prioritized and be at the heart of all efforts.
• Policies and interventions beyond just increasing agricultural
production are necessary:
• improvements in the provision and quality of diets,
• leveraging the potential of the agriculture sector and
• other rural services such as health, water, sanitation, and hygiene.
• Concerted effort - climate change and protracted crises, coupled
with urbanization and all forms of malnutrition.
