Women and girls face unique challenges to attaining good health and nutrition. What are we doing to challenge these, and what can we do better? Join World Vision and partners at this Women Deliver side event as we deconstruct the barriers and build a better approach to integrating gender equality and nutrition.
Following a panel discussion by leaders in nutrition policy, delivery, and financing, participants will engage in facilitated sessions to identify gaps and develop recommendations for advancing our work at the intersection of nutrition and gender equality.
