LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To mark the launch of the 2016 Access to Nutrition Index you are invited to the online launch event at 14.00 (GMT) on Thursday 14th January. Please RSVP to Gillian Gallanagh at ATNI@Webershandwick.com.
ABOUT THE 2016 ACCESS TO NUTRITION INDEX
With one in three people worldwide either overweight or undernourished, the Access to Nutrition Index (ATNI) is based on the premise that companies can - and must - work alongside governments, international organizations and civil society to address the spiralling ‘double burden’ of undernutrition and obesity. The 2016 Index ranks the world’s biggest 22 food and beverage companies on how far they are, among other things, producing healthier foods, making them more affordable and accessible and influencing consumer choice by marketing and labeling their products more responsibly. The 2016 ATNI also includes an assessment of the breast-milk substitute marketing practices of the six largest baby food companies. The Index was first released in 2013.
