Thx @LSHTM_Nutrition 🙏 In contexts of poverty alleviating hunger often a bigger food/nutrition concern for communities/govts than micronutrient malnutrition. Speaks to issues of competing actor priorities + need for policy design mindful of system synergies/trade-offs. @Miry58n

Food system change - and transformation - involves grappling with tensions, trade-offs and synergies between different (food) system goals. Our new article addresses this based on empirical findings from Malawi. @Miry58n @DFC_Program @GlobalHealthBMJ 💥 shorturl.at/jnpx1

The need for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza is getting more urgent with every passing hour. The parties to the conflict & the international community face an immediate & fundamental responsibility: Stop this inhuman collective suffering & dramatically expand humanitarian aid.

Policy change/impact is shaped by the actors involved. We extend the 'street level bureaucrats' (bottom-up) model of policy implementation to the role of those targeted by a policy in also shaping implementation processes. 🙏 @DFC_Program @PLOSGPH Link: shorturl.at/aDFGS

How good is UK food resilience? Science has long warned of risks. New survey of food experts found most think significant civil unrest in UK is possible in next 50 years. Shortage of carbs eg wheat, bread, pasta, cereal are most likely food triggers. mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/2…

Empirical evidence trumps mechanistic certainty. We don’t/didn’t know how many drugs work but we still use them if the evidence is there. Research is still uncovering the various mechanisms of harm from alcohol - policies are held up by lobby power, not gaps in our knowledge
