Abstract in brief

  • The research explores how historical economic policies and global influences, like the IMF and World Bank, have shaped Ghana's current food and nutrition policies, often prioritizing economic growth over nutrition.
  • Despite efforts to improve nutrition, Ghana’s food policies mainly focus on production and economic benefits, with limited integration of nutrition-specific goals, partly due to a legacy of liberal economic approaches and past policy failures.
  • The study emphasizes the importance of understanding policy paradigms and historical context to effectively reform food and nutrition systems, suggesting that deeper attention to these factors can help better address malnutrition issues.]
