World Vision International
78th WHA Individual Statements
World Vision International welcomes the extension of the Global Nutrition Targets to 2030 and has been a leading Non-State Actor in mobilising Member State support for this important resolution since September 2024. We thank the governments of Ireland and Ethiopia for their leadership and partnership in this process. With only 5 countries achieving 4 of the 6 Global Nutrition Targets, all Health Ministries must urgently take ownership of accelerating progress on the operational and outcomes targets by 2030. WHO’s Essential Nutrition Actions can prevent, detect and treat all forms of malnutrition through the health system, while contributing to Universal Health Coverage. Member States must take immediate action to prioritise and sustainably finance the comprehensive implementation of the Essential Nutrition Actions to realise the right to nutrition for all.
