Dual challenges, shared wins: unlocking climate financing for nutrition.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The intertwined challenges of climate change and malnutrition amplify each other, with climate change exacerbating malnutrition, particularly in vulnerable populations; and food systems significantly contributing to emissions and environmental degradation.

Methods

Using the Climate Funds Update database, 18 active climate funds were systematically reviewed and rated based on
