Genesis of ReportMalnutrition affects nearly every country in the world, and, although substantial resources are continuously funneled into its prevention and alleviation, most countries are far from reaching international goals in this regard.One reason for slow progress is lack of coordinated effort to track and report global efforts and outcomes aimed at reducing malnutrition.In response to the unacceptable rate of progress, 96 signatories that participated in the 2013 Nutrition for Growth Summit in London agreed to support the creation of a comprehensive report on global nutrition.This report was projected to be annual and written by a group of independent, international experts.Development and publication of the first edition of this report, the Global Nutrition Report 2014, was funded by both private foundations (e.g., the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation) and governmental entities (e.g., the government of Canada) and published by the International Food Policy Research Institute in November 2014.Its content is briefly described here.
