A Policy Dialogue for Nutrition of Women and Adolescent Girls: Sustainable Development Goals Matters Arising

Malnutrition among adolescent girls and women in Rwanda requires a multisectoral approach across all systems and sectors throughout their lifecycles. This policy dialogue document emphasizes the importance of progress on nutrition for overall sustainable development in the country. The study provides a call to action to tackle these “wicked problems” and highlights the implications for the UN sustainable development goals. Positioned as a practitioner/ academic paper, the implications go well beyond three SDGs (i.e., SDG2, SDG3, SDG5 and SDG17).
