Nutritional health issues have continued to remain as public health problems across the
world. India being a developing country with wider socio-economic, demographic, cultural
and behavioral diversities contributes to significant burden of nutritional problems globally.
Though the country offers large-scale community nutrition programs and interventions, there
is still a lot to do in improving the nutritional status of its population. India is committed to
strive for achieving the UN Sustainable development goals set in the year 2015. Improving the
nutritional status of people plays a major role in achieving goal 2 – zero hunger; goal 3 - good
health and wellbeing; goal 12 - sustainable consumption and production. Nevertheless, other
SDGs are also going to get indirectly influenced by achieving these three major SDG's related
to nutrition and health.
