Our objectives

Increasing the nutrition impact of Dutch stakeholders targeting the SDGs in low- and middle income countries.

The NWGN believes that improving nutrition through both nutrition-specific as well as nutrition-sensitive actions contributes to the achievement of many SDGs, while vice versa the achievement of most SDGs contributes to improving nutrition as they all relate in one way or another to food system transformation.
