Sugary drinks are still far too cheap 🥤 , and our health systems are paying the price.

New World Health Organization (WHO) report released today shows that while 116 countries now tax sugary drinks, these taxes are typically very weak and often exclude products like fruit juices, sweetened milk drinks and ready-to-drink coffees and teas 🧋 .

As a result, high-sugar beverages 🧃 remain widely affordable, driving rising rates of obesity, diabetes and other diet-related NCDs; all while governments lose a powerful tool to both protect healthy diets and raise resources for health and nutrition.

We join WHO in calling on countries to strengthen and expand sugary drink taxes to make unhealthy products less affordable over time.

SUN Countries: have you introduced or strengthened a sugary drink tax?

Meet Mr. Mouamba!

In the Republic of Congo, he is transforming nutrition with affordable, locally made porridge 🌾.

With support from the SUN Movement, Biover connected with health centres, received certification, and now reaches vulnerable families,while supporting local farmers, creating jobs and strengthening the economy.

This is what sustainable, country-led solutions look like. What homegrown solutions is your community supporting?

Rencontrez M. Mouamba. 👋

En République du Congo 🇨🇬, il a fondé Biover, une entreprise locale qui produit une bouillie nutritive et abordable à partir d’ingrédients locaux🌾. Avec l’appui du Mouvement SUN, Biover a pu se connecter aux centres de santé, obtenir les certifications nécessaires et toucher davantage de familles vulnérables — tout en soutenant les agriculteurs et l’emploi local.

Un bel exemple de solution portée par le pays pour lutter durablement contre la malnutrition.

The SUN Movement is proud to co-host in Nepal, bringing together government leaders, SUN networks, and partners from across South Asia to advance data and evidence for better nutrition. 📊

As our Coordinator Afshan Khan highlighted in her opening remarks, strong science has always powered the SUN Movement.
Strong evidence is essential to show how better nutrition strengthens productivity, resilience and economic growth — and why integrating nutrition across sectors delivers more impact for every dollar.

The ideas and collaboration happening here in Kathmandu will help accelerate progress across the region.

We have just concluded an energising Regional Learning Exchange on Multisectoral Coordination of Nutrition for Anglophone Africa, hosted by the Government of Zimbabwe FNC Zimbabwe with support from the SUN Secretariat and the FIAP Project.

Over 2.5 days, representatives from eight SUN countries immersed themselves in Zimbabwe’s coordination model — from high-level structures to community action in Murehwa — seeing how clear roles, strong accountability and local leadership can drive real progress.

What stood out:
➡️ Coordination works when it’s clearly structured, well-resourced and anchored at the highest Government level above sectors
➡️ Youth and traditional leaders are powerful drivers of change at local level
➡️ Institutionalising coordination is essential for long-term impact
➡️ Peer learning accelerates solutions countries can put into practice

A big thank you to Zimbabwe and all participating countries for an inspiring exchange.

And now… we’re ready to kick off the Regional Leadership Workshop on MSP Strengthening!

Today is Food Day, where countries are focusing on the foundations of our food systems — agriculture, food security, fisheries, family farming, women and gender equity.

Across the SUN Movement, the message is clear:
🗣️ Nutrition must be at the centre of these discussions
🗣️ Healthy, affordable diets are essential for climate resilience and sustainable development

Nutrition is the link between strong food systems, equity and climate action.

Let’s keep it front and centre throughout COP30.
