Global health and foreign policy: accelerating the fight against diseases driven by social determinants of health A/RES/80/265 Acknowledging that food security and food safety, adequate and accessible nutrition, as well as sustainable, resilient and diverse nutrition -sensitive food systems and open food markets, promote healthier populations and are important elements to address malnutrition in all its forms, and in that regard the importance of reaching Sustainable Development Goal 2, which aims to end hunger and achieve food security and improved nutrition, and the interlinked targets of other Goals, while recalling that the period 2016–2025, subsequently extended to 2030, is the United Nations Decade of Action on Nutrition, which aims to achieve the global nutrition and diet -related noncommunicable disease targets and to contribute to the realization of the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, Remaining deeply concerned about ongoing food insecurity and malnutrition in different regions of the world and their ongoing negative impact on health and nutrition, especially in Africa, parts of Asia, in particular West Asia, in the Pacific and in parts of Latin America and the Caribbean, and in this regard underlining the urgent need for joint efforts at all levels to respond to the situation in a coherent and effective manner, Conscious of the need to eradicate hunger and prevent all forms of malnutrition worldwide, particularly undernourishment, stunting, wasting, underweight and overweight in children under 5 years of age and anaemia in women and children, particularly girls, among other micronutrient deficiencies, ensure access to healthy diets, as well as reverse the rising trends in overweight and obesity and reduce the burden of diet-related noncommunicable diseases in all age groups, Recognizing that the human and economic cost of noncommunicable diseases and mental health conditions contributes to poverty and inequities and threatens the health of peoples and the development of countries, that the main modifiable risk factors of noncommunicable diseases are largely preventable and require crosssectoral actions and that there are public health risks associated with increased urbanization, including unhealthy diets, malnutrition and hunger, sedentary lifestyles and physical inactivity, and exposure to air pollution, requiring commitments to mobilize and allocate adequate, predictable and sustained resources for national responses to prevent and control noncommunicable diseases, including through international cooperation and official development assistance, Recognizing also the consequence of the adverse impact of climate change, natural disasters, extreme weather events as well as other environmental determinants of health, such as clean air, safe drinking water, sanitation, safe, sufficient and nutritious food and secure shelter, for health, and in this regard underscoring the need to foster health in climate change adaptation efforts, underlining that resilient and people-centred health systems are necessary to protect the health of all people, particularly women and girls, and those who are vulnerable or in vulnerable situations, and recalling the adoption, by the World Health Assembly at its seventy eighth session, of decision 78(27) of 27 May 2025 on the global action plan on climate change and health (2025–2028), Recognizing further the value and diversity of the culture and traditional knowledge of Indigenous Peoples and local communities, including evidence -based traditional medicine, in strengthening health systems, and the role that the World Health Organization Global Traditional Medicine Centre could play in optimizing the contribution of traditional medicine to global health and sustainable development, Acknowledging the necessity of operationalizing the One Health approach that fosters cooperation between the human, animal and plant health, as well as environmental and other relevant sectors, taking into account national contexts and priorities, including through strengthened cooperation and collaboration among the 26-07986 5/10
