Good Nutrition offers a wide-ranging view of the challenges and opportunities for nutrition in the era of the Sustainable Development Guide (SDGs). Nutrition has a role to play in all 17 goals. If nutrition is accepted as a human right, then its potential to bring about positive change on a global scale is vast. If it is not, however, even our best efforts to implement the SDGs will be very limited in their effect. [Ed.].

This is a work of advocacy, whose prime objective is to inform people about the relationship between nutrition security and public health. It draws on the thinking and experience of a selected number of experts in the field of nutrition and public health. Collating up-to-the-minute information in a clear and accessible way, the book forms a ‘one-stop information source’, and paves the way for further, science-led publications in this field. ‘The Road to Good Nutrition’ puts the topic of nutrition security on the agenda of policy-makers, academics, private sector organizations and civil society, as well as of organizations dedicated to the nutrition space. It is also of interest to the educated lay reader who is generally well informed in matters of health, nutrition and sustainability.
