The World Trade Organization (WTO) and Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) are stressing the need to leverage international trade policies to enhance global nutrition security, reduce malnutrition and align food systems with public health goals. Nearly 5,000 trillion kilocalories are traded daily for global nutrition security, which has reached a value of US$2.3 trillion, say WTO’s deputy director-general, Jean-Marie Paugam and GAIN’s executive director, Lawrence Haddad.
