  "summary": "DawnMedia is organizing a national conference titled ‘Act for Nutrition’ on September 2-3 at the Serena Hotel in Islamabad, aiming to address Pakistan's severe malnutrition and stunting crisis. The conference will gather policymakers, development partners, healthcare professionals, economists, academics, civil society organizations, humanitarian agencies, and the private sector to discuss the issue from various perspectives including poverty, health, education, climate resilience, governance, and human rights. With nearly 40% of children under five in Pakistan being stunted and the country ranking among the top for child malnutrition globally, the event seeks to elevate malnutrition from a health issue to a national development priority. The conference is supported by the Sindh health ministry, the government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and English Biscuit Manufacturers, with knowledge partners such as Globesight, International Research Force, and the Maternal, Neonatal and Child Health Research Network.",
