| dc.description | Malnutrition presents one of the biggest challenges in many countries and agrifood systems are failing to deliver healthy diets to a growing world population. To ensure that agrifood systems help meet required safe and nutritious food availability and accessibility, market-based and business-driven solutions are needed. In this context, there is increased awareness of the crucial role of micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in supplying safe and nutritious foods in local markets and reaching vulnerable populations. However, only a few policies, programmes and initiatives acknowledge their role and specifically aim at leveraging MSMEs as part of strategies to improve safe and nutritious food availability and accessibility in local markets. The project targeted territories in Malawi and Kenya ranked as highly vulnerable in the United Nations Global Action Plan on Child Wasting and built on local food markets and their gaps in local nutritious food availability. The overall goal of the project was to increase the demand and supply of nutritious and sustainably produced local foods in the priority territories. | |
