Descripción
The project was developed to address the critical issue of malnutrition, a significant barrier to achieving the SDGs. Nutrition is embedded across all SDGs, serving both as an input and an output of sustainable development, with healthy diets and sustainable food systems playing a major role in preventing malnutrition. Addressing malnutrition in all its forms requires a cross-sectoral approach, collaboration among diverse stakeholders and the integration of nutrition into relevant policies, supported by coherent United Nations (UN) efforts. In some countries, progress has been impeded by coordination challenges, arising from differing working practices, multiple administrative layers and competition among UN agencies for the nutrition lead.The project, implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) through the UN-Nutrition Secretariat, built on the successes of the Renewed Efforts Against Child Hunger and Undernutrition (REACH) approach and previous support to the UN Network for SUN, with the aim to strengthen UN leadership on nutrition, focusing on aligned advocacy, policy coherence, strategic coordination, knowledge management and the translation of global guidance into country-level actions.
