About GAIN
The Global Alliance for
Improved Nutrition (GAIN) is a Swiss-based foundation launched at the
United Nations in 2002 to tackle the human suffering caused by
malnutrition.
Due to COVID19, conflict in Ukraine and climate
change, malnutrition and hunger have worsened significantly since 2019,
reversing a decade of progress. There is growing recognition that our
food systems need to change if we are to reverse these trends.
GAIN’s
Strategy aims to transform food systems to make healthier diets from
sustainable food systems accessible to all people and especially those
whose are most vulnerable to shocks.
By 2027, we aim to improve
the access of 1.5 billion people to nutritionally enhanced staple foods,
improve the access of 25 million people to healthier diets, and support
positive food system change in 10 countries.
This is bold and
complex, and the only way to achieve this is to work together with
partners including governments, businesses, and civil society at the
country and global level.
These goals, and the ways of achieving
them, build on our twenty-year legacy of transforming people’s lives
with improved nutrition through concerted action and effective policy
change.
