Building on the success of 2021, the second consecutive Action Against Stunting Day will explore how to advance a just transition to sustainable food systems and food security through appropriate policies, investments and support. The second Action Against Stunting Day will take place on 8 September 2022. 

In the first edition last year, we defined the key priorities in the battle against stunting. We brought together a global panel of policymakers, donors and academics to commit to promoting research and interventions to reduce stunting by 2025

The second Action Against Stunting Day will take place on 8 September 2022 both in-person and online, from 11:00am – 13:00pm UK time in the John Snow Room at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Keppel St, London WC1E 7HT (LSHTM).

To commemorate Action Against Stunting Day, we are holding our first hybrid meeting at LSHTM to convene key changemakers in the field of nutrition such as:

  • Grainne Moloney (Senior Nutrition Advisor at UNICEF)
  • Liam Smeeth (Director at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine)
  • Saul Morris (Director of Programme Services, Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition), amongst many more.

Following the event will include a photo exhibition of our work in India by Liz Hingley, and refreshments for all attendees at the school, a great opportunity for networking.
