Iodine Global Network Details
The Iodine Global Network is a non-profit, non governmental organization for the elimination of iodine deficiency worldwide. Lack of iodine reduces the brain development of children. It affects rich and poor in all geographic regions of the world and up to 2 billion people worldwide are affected.The most effective and sustainable solution is to make sure all salt consumed by humans is iodized. Our vision is a world where all people have optimal iodine nutrition and children can reach their full potential in life. We support and catalyze programs to eliminate iodine deficiency at country and at global level working with national governments, private sector, scientists and civil society.We work to improve and sustain adequate iodine intake, primarily through iodization of food grade salt for home use and for use in processed foods. According to the World Bank, and the Copenhagen Consensus, salt iodization is one of the best nutritional investments around: there's probably no other technology that offers as large an opportunity to improve lives at such low cost and in such a short time.For every dollar spent, we get $30 in return productivity. For every $100 invested, we can protect 10,000 people against iodine deficiency via salt iodization programs for 1 year.Learn more at www.ign.org.
