Concern Worldwide UK’s report Nutrition and climate integration for transformative actions, raises the importance of tackling the malnutrition and climate change crises simultaneously, by integrating nutrition and climate actions as an essential response to these crises.

The report advocates for integration, as a process of planning and implementing policies and programmes that address nutrition needs and adaptation to the impact of climate change. It highlights the need for higher political and financial commitments for nutrition-climate integration.

As Concern operates in fragile contexts where the climate and malnutrition crises are interlinked, the report also shares learning and practices to build on evidence of what works best in terms of integration of climate change adaptation and nutrition programmes.
