Can Fish Fix the Global Nutrition Crisis? Nearly 800 million people still go to bed hungry every night, and millions more are missing the vital nutrients needed for growth and health. Fish and other aquatic foods are among the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, yet access, affordability, and policy gaps keep them out of reach for many. In this episode of The Deep Dive, we test the promise of fish against the realities of price, distribution, and culture and ask, can fish really help fix the global nutrition crisis? Hosted by: Dr. Wanjiku Gichohi, Senior Scientist and Nutrition Lead | WorldFish Featuring • Prof. Christina Hicks, Environmental Social Scientist | Lancaster University • Dr. Gianna Bonis-Profumo, Social Scientist | WorldFish Timor-Leste • Dr. Imelda Angeles-Agdeppa, Scientist & Nutrition Leader | Food and Nutrition Research Institute, Philippines • Tendai Gunda, Regional Representative | Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement Secretariat • Prof. Rashid Sumaila, Fisheries Economist | University of British Columbia The Deep Dive is an endorsed UN Ocean Decade Activity.
