The Alliance

United Against Malnutrition and Hunger is an alliance for global action on malnutrition and hunger.

We will bring people together from scientific, business, finance, military, diplomatic, faith, philanthropic and civil society backgrounds who want to see a world in which everyone has access to the nutrition they need to thrive and to contribute to prosperous and stable communities.
