This grant contributes to the planning and logistical coordination of the Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement High Level Event scheduled on the margins of the 67th United Nations General Assembly on 27 September 2012. The event is an opportunity for the SUN Lead Group to demonstrate progress of the movement and inspire continued high-level political engagement in nutrition. The event brings together approximately 400 people including representatives from SUN member states, the United Nations, multilateral agencies, civil society and the private sector. This serves an opportunity to galvanize continued high-level political engagement in nutrition and action at the country-level by SUN Countries, the donor community, private sector, UN and civil society to scale up efforts to fight under nutrition. This is critical given the impact that undernutrition can have on impeding development, including reducing the potential of citizens to contribute to a productive economy.

Return to topThe expected outputs for this project include: (i) background reviews for advancement of technical policy and programmatic guidance for countries; (ii) detailed documentation with descriptions of the current activities and initiatives of different United Nations agencies, institutions and other stakeholders addressing nutrition-sensitive agriculture, food security and humanitarian assistance; and (iii) a desk review on documented policy and programmatic experience of United Nations agencies and their partners with regards to nutrition-sensitive agriculture, food security and humanitarian assistance with key lessons learned, main challenges and opportunities. These outputs contribute to an increased inclusion of nutrition considerations in CIDA’s policy and programming in the sectors of agriculture, food security, and humanitarian assistance and to enhanced dialogue and best practices relating to nutrition-sensitive programming and policy at the global level.
