The summit rightly focuses on the direct links between nutrition and productivity, economic growth, and political stability. Investment in nutrition is investment in generations of children in poor communities, and the summit must place women and mothers at the center of proposed solutions.
营养不良每五秒钟就要夺走一名无辜儿童的生命，全球死亡人数中有11%是因为营养不良引起的。本次峰会正确地将注意力集中于营养和生产率、经济增长和政治稳定之间的直接关系上。营养投资就是投资于贫困社会的儿童，峰会必须把妇女和母亲作为解决方案的核心。
