Deferred
Paragraph: 38
Food insecurity remains a development challenge in Pakistan.
Conclusion
Food insecurity remains a development challenge in Pakistan. As adequate nutrition is central to maintaining progress in key areas for development such as health, education, and economic growth, failing to have a joined-up strategy towards nutrition undermines the UK Government’s work in other areas, such as in education and economic empowerment for women and girls.
Government response summary AI-generated
The UK facilitates health sector policy coordination as convenors of a Development Partners Group, but has exited bilateral ODA finance of nutrition, prioritizing interventions in other areas while continuing to fund UN agencies that provide specific nutrition policy and services.
