Ahead of the 2025 World Bank Annual Meetings, the Multilateral Development Bank Nutrition Financing Advocacy Coalition has issued a joint statement

World Vision welcomes a Gaza peace deal, marking a vital step toward healing for millions of children affected by two years of devastating conflict.

Matthew Pickard, Regional Director for World Vision Southern Africa, reflects on Mozambique’s powerful example of post-conflict recovery and resilience. Drawing from personal experience in Niassa Province after the civil war, he emphasises that peace is not solely the product of political agreements—it is built and sustained by communities. Yet, Mozambique’s peace remains fragile. In Cabo Delgado, ongoing insurgency has displaced over 50,000 people since early 2024. He reaffirms that Mozambique’s story underscores a critical development truth: sustainable peace is people-powered. When local leadership, civil society, and governments collaborate, transformation is not only possible—it’s inevitable.

The coalition’s call comes at a defining moment for global development. Investing in nutrition is an imperative for human development and children’s right to thrive.

800,000 children in the West Bank are starting a new school year while facing violence, movement restrictions, economic hardship and reduced learning time.
