The upcoming Learning From Global Food and Nutrition Insecurity Across Borders webinar will launch the Global Food and Nutrition Security Research supplement recently published in Frontiers, which evolved from a three-part webinar series presented by the Fogarty International Center in the Fall of 2022. The 15-article supplement addresses the growing issue of food and nutrition insecurity, especially among low-income populations worldwide as well as the critical need for broader sharing and collaboration across contexts. This work responds to the priorities called out in the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based strategies to combat food insecurity.
