On #UHCDay, Julia Hanne of @globalpolicyforum.bsky.social highlights how aid cuts are putting millions of children at risk.

Strong health systems and political commitment are essential to protecting nutrition and health for all.

3 ways governments can tackle the global nutrition crisis and keep health for all within reach as budgets shrink | Action for Global Health Nutrition services are being cut as needs rise. Protecting nutrition services is essential for countries pursuing universal health coverage.

All six insights come from this powerful new blog by Julia Hanne — on why integrating nutrition into UHC is essential, especially as global nutrition financing collapses.

Read the full piece ⬇️

actionforglobalhealth.org.uk/nutrition-cr...

Integrating nutrition into UHC isn’t optional — it’s one of the smartest ways countries can stretch tight budgets and protect future generations.

Primary health care (PHC) is the backbone of universal health coverage (UHC) — and the delivery of essential nutrition services depends on countries’ UHC commitments.

The systems exist — what’s missing is political commitment and reliable financing to keep nutrition services running for those who need them most.

On #UHCDay, we can’t ignore the reality: nutrition programmes are being cut just as needs are skyrocketing.

On the eve of #UHCDay, the numbers speak for themselves: millions of children risk losing the nutrition services that keep them alive and healthy.

With #UHCDay approaching, sharp aid cuts are leaving millions without essential nutrition services.

Protecting nutrition is protecting universal health — for children, families, and futures.

This #HumanRightsDay, we stand against the erosion of the right to health.

But cuts to UK aid are doing exactly that.

@resultsuk.bsky.social @resultscanada.bsky.social @debtjustice.bsky.social

Debt shouldn’t stand in the way of people’s right to health.

Countries facing hunger and malnutrition are being forced to channel billions into debt payments instead of care.
