Despite steps taken to address the global burden of nutrition, malnutrition and food insecurity remain critical issues, especially among women and children. The 2017 Global Nutrition Report highlights core areas of the Sustainable Development Goals that nutrition can both contribute to and benefit from, including sustainable food production, infrastructure, health systems, equity and inclusion, and peace and stability. The report sets a global agenda for addressing food security and malnutrition, including anemia among women of reproductive age, and establishes targets and indicators for monitoring progress to guide global efforts.
