| dc.description | Despite progress on population health outcomes in recent decades, malnutrition remains a policy concern in Bhutan, especially in rural areas and in the eastern region of the country. Addressing malnutrition is high on the government agenda, with clear targets, strategies, and action plans designed to address some specific malnutrition-related challenges. Assessing the level, distribution, and composition of public financing for nutrition is key to informing the design and implementation of corrective policies. Considering the growing burden of disease attributable to overnutrition, it is important that Bhutan’s nutrition action plan prioritizes overnutrition in addition to undernutrition. | |
