Aligner les actions sur des résultats communs

The Common Results Framework is the Strategic Plan for Nutrition. It was developed on the basis of the National Nutrition Policy, which serves as the reference. Data on food and nutrition security are integrated into the country’s main consolidated reports, specifically Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys and the Nutrition Monitoring System (SISSAN). Joint planning, monitoring and evaluation sessions are held periodically, at the national, regional and sectoral levels, to share information and experiences. Joint mechanisms for the coordination of interventions, monitoring and evaluation have been set up. Strengthening and greater investment for technical capacity is needed.

Procéder au suivi financier et mobiliser des ressources

Most of the resources for funding actions on nutrition are provided by development partners, which have recently been joined by the European Union and the World Bank. The Government has shown willingness to mobilise more resources for nutrition. Strategies for financial stability are being developed for some programmes. For example, the WFP buys food from rural women which is distributed in schools, ensuring local development and the empowerment of women.

Priorités 2020-2021
