Abstract:
The NFNSP 2018-2023 seeks to significantly
improve food security and nutritional status.
It therefore sets out impact targets covering
interventions to address vulnerability to
hunger; undernutrition and under overweight
and obesity, which are at least as ambitious
as the global targets and in some cases (e.g.
stunting and exclusive breastfeeding rates)
more ambitious. The selection of 17 indicators
was inspired by three imperatives: (a) Key
national goals to reduce poverty, inequality
and unemployment, as set out in the National
Development Plan 2030; (b) The six World
Health Assembly indicators for nutrition1 and
(c) Food security indicators from the General
Household Survey.
