Food security and nutrition are crucial issues that impact the well-being of individuals and communities around the world. Food security refers to the ability of people to access sufficient, safe, and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and preferences. Nutrition, on the other hand, is the science of food and its effect on the body, encompassing aspects such as macronutrients, micronutrients, and dietary patterns. Together, food security and nutrition are essential for promoting healthy lifestyles and reducing the risk of malnutrition and chronic diseases.
WOTECC is steadfast on addressing food security and nutrition since it requires a multi-sectoral approach that involves improving food production and distribution, promoting education and awareness about healthy eating habits, and supporting policies that prioritize the availability and accessibility of nutritious food for all.
