@RobertJenrick I don’t know about you but I care about children going hungry wherever they live

[Sarah Champion @SarahChampionMP]

40% cuts to our foreign aid will have a dramatic impact internationally; both to the poorest & to the UK international standing and influence. Today it felt like Ministers were trying to buy the consequences @CommonsIDC ⁦@LabourCID⁩ ⁦@bondngo⁩ https://t.co/EvSzMNXYKV

Every single minute, the global hunger crisis pushes another child into severe malnutrition.

As @HickmanRach of @savechildrenuk says, we have the tools and knowledge to save lives.

We just need the political will to put it all to use. #WorldHungerDay

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

Last year the government's manifesto promised to return aid spending to 0.7% as soon as the fiscal situation allowed.

Now it's reducing the aid budget to levels never seen before.

Nutrition support to the world's poorest countries is to be slashed by nearly 90%, while the climate crisis is putting food systems under strain: https://t.co/IiyXyq7ImJ

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

At the Nutrition for Growth Summit this week we committed $663 million to help prevent and treat child malnutrition.

We think the UK should be stepping up too and we're calling on them to make a strong financial pledge to tackle malnutrition, as soon as possible.

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

Now is the time to invest. Global cuts to aid will mean 2.3 million severely acutely malnourished children may lose access to life-saving treatment, leading to 369,000 additional child deaths per year.

We will not abandon children now or in the future.

4/5

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

As the summit comes to a close, the UK has still made no financial commitment to nutrition as we continue to battle against a backdrop of cuts to UK aid.

3/5

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

But this important work needs resourcing. The summit has successfully leveraged $28 billion to fight malnutrition globally.

Yet one partner is missing when it comes to financial commitments - the UK.

2/5

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

We welcome the UK Government's launch of the Nutrition Integration Compact at the Nutrition for Growth Summit in Paris.

We hope it will help bring partners together to drive multi-sector action and tackle the underlying causes of malnutrition.

At #NutritionForGrowth Summit in #Paris" @save_children will spend a minimum investment of $663 million between 2025 – 2027 to support child nutrition & help ensure children survive and thrive. We will not abandon children" @SaveCEO_Intl Inger Ashing

Great to hear @AlNewlands speak about the amazing work of the @SUNCSN to champion nutrition integration & accountability across the world. From growing nutritious, climate resilient, indigenous crops to using AI to track violations of the breast milk substitutes marketing code 👏

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

The UK can & must take action to fix the governance of global debt so the lowest-income countries have the money needed to invest in their own development priorities, particularly given the latest UK aid budget cuts to a historical low.
