Abstract

The present National Plan of Action on Nutrition (NPAN) is based on the National Nutrition Strategy (NNS). It is structured in line with the strategic framework which envisages 3 Strategic Directions: address immediate causes; address underlying causes and address basic causes. The specific objective of this Plan of Action is to provide a detailed overview of which interventions should be implemented by whom until when. Interventions within this document constitute not only the delivery of nutrition and food security services via a certain delivery channel to a beneficiary, but also more fundamental tasks such as formulating a legislation or developing an information system. The Plan stops at the intervention level and does not detail individual activities. Thus, it can be regarded as a “plan for a plan” and the starting point for annual operational plans of the implementing stakeholders. Chapter 2 forms the core component of the Plan. It consists of ten logframes, one for every strategic objective. Each logframe provides a detailed overview of the planned action areas and interventions.
