IIMSAM’ LEGACY OF ADVOCACY AND RESILIENT LOBBYING AT UNHQ IN NY MAKES INROADS: During the sixtieth session of the United Nations General Assembly (Second Committee, Agenda item 52). IIMSAM initiated a revised draft resolution on the “Use of Spirulina to combat hunger and malnutrition and help achieve sustainable development” sponsored by Burundi, Cameroon, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, and Paraguay. As a follow-up on this resolution, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) was requested to prepare a draft position on Spirulina. FAO’s report was presented in 2008 and includes the following selected recommendations: To improve technical and economic solutions to Spirulina production in poor environmental conditions, as well as to prepare tested production packages for rapid deployment in emergency situations. To develop a practical guide to small-scale Spirulina production that could be useful for development mythologies, oriented towards Providing nutritional supplements for the use in rural and urban communities where the diet is inadequate.

IIMSAM is an entirely Humanitarian IGO which has been playing a proactive role in providing nutritious Spirulina as aid worldwide. IIMSAM’s Flagship Program “Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan Spirulina Feeding Centre” in Kisumu, Kenya is one of the exemplary free feeding centers with an estimated 800,000 + recipients since its inception in 2009.
IIMSAM’s fiat is to realize its ambition of making Spirulina a global driver to eradicate malnutrition and achieve food security so as to bridge the critical health divide.
IIMSAM recognizes that hunger and malnutrition are a major impediment to sustainable development reaffirming that reducing these both is a primary goal of the UN-Sustainable Development Goals 2030 Agenda.
