Feed the Future, the U.S. Government’s global hunger and food security initiative, is establishing a lasting foundation for progress against global hunger. With a focus on smallholder farmers, particularly women, Feed the Future supports partner countries in developing their agriculture sectors to spur economic growth that increases incomes and reduces hunger, poverty, and undernutrition. Feed the Future efforts are driven by country-led priorities and rooted in partnership with donor organizations, the private sector, and civil society to enable long-term success. Feed the Future aims to assist millions of vulnerable women, children, and family members to escape hunger and poverty, while also reaching significant numbers of children with highly effective nutrition interventions to prevent stunting and child mortality.
Over the next five years in Malawi, Feed the Future aims to help an estimated 281,000 vulnerable Malawian women, children, and family members—mostly smallholder farmers—escape hunger and poverty. More than 293,000 children will be reached with services to improve their nutrition and prevent stunting and child mortality. Significant numbers of additional rural populations will achieve improved income and nutritional status from strategic policy engagement and institutional investments.
","The USG will make investments in nutrition across three critical sectors; agriculture, health, and social protection, with nutrition as the lynchpin between these sectors. As such, the USG will implement a comprehensive approach that maximizes all three sectors and strengthens and links the nutrition components of each. These investments will be underpinned by a core set of nutrition indicators that are common across all programs, and will be supported by policy investments that mirror the comprehensive nature of nutrition programming by working with the Office of the President’s Cabinet (OPC) and the Ministries of Agriculture and Food Security, Health, and Gender.
Building on lessons and experiences from current programs implementing preventive nutrition activities (e.g., the WALA and BASICS projects), USG resources will scale up prevention of undernutrition and resiliency of communities, while maintaining critical investments in treatment and nutrition service delivery. The rationale for this shift is due to the overall high prevalence of chronic undernutrition (47 percent) and the low prevalence of acute undernutrition (4 percent), the latter of which has been achieved by sustained commitment to scaling up CMAM. As a result, the USG will aim to drive a decrease in stunting as the highest level objective in FTF. The USG plans to focus on cost-effective preventive nutrition interventions targeting the 1,000 days window of development (pregnancy through two years), including maternal nutrition; early and exclusive breastfeeding through six months; use of appropriate, diverse foods beginning at six months of age; targeted micronutrient supplementation; and improved hygiene and sanitation. Activities will be integrated into health, HIV, and agriculture platforms, taking full advantage of the resources that these programs have. These investments leverage funding from health (Global Health and Child Survival), agriculture (Development Assistance), and Title II to advance nutrition objectives. The Care Group model encompasses a combined FTF and GHI approach to reduce poverty, hunger, and undernutrition by joining two complementary lines of investment at an operational level:
The objectives of the Care Groups complement value chain development activities by building capacity of:
Community-Level Organizations and Integration with Government of Malawi Systems for Health and Agricultural Extension
The Care Group in the context of this model is notable in that it supports a sustainable and simultaneous approach to agriculture, nutrition, and microfinance. Cross-fertilization of nutrition and agricultural messaging and skill building, as well as the opportunity to create cross-sector targets and results frameworks allows for a uniquely comprehensive approach.
Volunteers are trained and facilitated to conduct community outreach and follow-up in both agricultural- and health-focused nutrition interventions, thus supporting an operational link between nutrition and agriculture programming. Each volunteer takes on responsibility for conducting outreach and follow-up to some 10-12 nearby households. Care Group volunteers also have access to agricultural inputs to start and maintain community gardens, as well as engage in income-diversification through activities such as establishing voluntary savings and loan activities. Access to these inputs provides motivation and support for implementing targeted nutrition-focused interventions focused on behavior change, including:
Linking the agriculture and value chain components of the project with health and nutrition promotion at the community level is especially advantageous in that it provides opportunities to address two key crosscutting areas:
Prevention Linked with Health Service Delivery
The USG’s approach to service delivery covers community level action, improvement of quality at all levels of facilities, and strengthening the central and district level systems of management. This provides a common platform for multi-thematic messages and programs, ensuring that there are ―no missed opportunities‖. It also ensures a focused yet comprehensive basic package accessible to the Malawian population that stretches across the continuum of care from community to facility and from facility to community. At the community level, the Health Surveillance Assistants (HSAs) and health volunteers will continue to focus on interpersonal counseling, limited preventive and curative care through village clinics and drug boxes, and to create demand for services at the health facilities across family planning, maternal and neonatal health, child health, nutrition, malaria and HIV areas. At the facility level, the USG will support improved quality of care for existing interventions that target integrated and comprehensive primary health care provision and performance based incentives. At the national, zonal and district levels, USG programs will continue to strengthen the financial, management and leadership capabilities of the Ministry of Health staff. Also, programs will work closely with the technical staff to provide technical assistance and work toward meaningful policy changes. At all levels, USG resources will focus on integration of social and behavior change communication efforts through community and facility level entry points.
An important element of the multi-year FTF Strategy is monitoring and evaluation, which is an iterative learning process that will put into place the principle of a sustained and accountable delivery approach. Program activities must be monitored through periodic field visits by Mission staff and ongoing monitoring and learning by implementing partners. Mission staff has a key role to play in monitoring and learning from partners both through oversight and input to design of project level M&E plans and systems and also through follow-up on quarterly reports and other communication with partners.
The integration of agricultural, nutrition, and health elements into a joint strategic plan provides a unique opportunity to innovate, document, and demonstrate best practices associated with a concurrent multi-sector investment model. Also, the Malawi FTF Strategy will foster linkages among existing programs, which will harmonize key agriculture and nutrition and indicators across relevant areas of focus.
Building on this collaboration, both the Health and Sustainable Economic Growth (SEG) teams at USAID/Malawi will work together to integrate M&E systems and processes in order to track synergies and multiplier effects between the two sectors not captured through the agriculture/nutrition overlap. There is currently significant USG investment on the part of USAID through PEPFAR and GHI in health systems strengthening, family planning, and malaria and tuberculosis reduction among others in the geographic areas targeted through FTF. We believe it is critical to capture at the highest level the combined impact of FTF and GHI/PEPFAR in order to reduce duplication, increase the applicability of data across interventions and most importantly, learn across programs in order to improve and increase efficiency and impact of all USAID investments in Malawi. This integration of M&E function may take the form of harmonized M&E plans at the implementer level combined with joint monitoring visits by SEG and Health team members.
Reliable and well-defined monitoring, reporting and evaluation methods, roles and communication channels result in improved project and program management, promote ongoing learning and testing of development hypotheses and ensure accountability. A fully functioning M&E team and system further help to illustrate the Mission’s value added to overall development not only to key stakeholders in the USG, but also to the GoM and other development partners.
USAID/Malawi is currently refining Mission processes in line with the requirements and recommendations of the newly announced USAID Evaluation Policy. To that end, and in preparation for the Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS), SEG will identify further impact evaluation questions and set aside funds for impact evaluation in 2011. This will serve as solid preparation for FTF-focused evaluation activities in subsequent years.

","Although the main focus will be on preventing childhood undernutrition, USAID/Malawi will continue to support CMAM, building on past investments. Since 2005, USAID has supported the integration of CMAM in existing health care services. Partners are working at both the policy and community levels to ensure this integration. As of December 2009, 24 out of 28 districts are implementing CMAM in over 240 health facilities. The USG will support one additional year of the MoH’s CMAM Advisory Service to finalize the transition of complete CMAM scale-up to the GoM. An evaluation in 2012 will help inform the USG on the areas needing further investment.
Through two GDAs with Project Peanut Butter, a local producer of ready-to use therapeutic food (RUTF), USAID/Malawi’s support has resulted in an annual production capacity of over 1,200 MT of RUTF, which, when combined with production from a second local producer of RUTF, more than meets the total requirements of RUTF for Malawi, with capacity to export to neighboring countries. The USG will take advantage of this existing capacity to explore the development and promotion of ready to use supplementary and complementary foods.

","The USG will support GoM's efforts towards fortification of prioritized centrally processed foods, namely: sugar, oil, wheat and maize flour, and complementary baby foods. Data from the National Micronutrient Survey shows that the consumption of these foods has increased over the last ten years. USAID health funding will continue to support the universal salt iodization program in order to sustain the gains made with previous investments. Although not sufficient to forestall stunting in children under five, one necessary input is a high quality, low-cost complementary food. The legume and dairy value chains present a unique opportunity for the development of such a product. Malawi will take advantage and work with existing food processors (e.g., Rab processors, Project Peanut Butter and Valid Nutrition) to develop a suitable product.
Prevention and control of micronutrient malnutrition will require a concerted effort by all USAID/Malawi’s health programs, namely, malaria, family planning, maternal, neonatal and child health, HIV/AIDS and nutrition. Possible USG support to SUN for specific activities with deliverables in FY11 include the following:

","USG investments in legume and dairy value chains are designed to boost competitiveness and promote diversification into higher-return value chains that will also spawn non-farm employment opportunities. While these investments in economic growth will be necessary to reduce poverty and hunger, they will be insufficient by themselves. Beyond growth, poverty reduction will require targeted interventions that address the needs of smallholder farmers (the rural poor) as well as more vulnerable populations. A significant smallholder need is to produce more from a very limited resource base. Conservation farming practices offer promise in this regard, by increasing yields, soil fertility and soil moisture content per unit area. Importantly CF offers a window of opportunity to increase yield from a fixed unit area, freeing up land for diversification of both other cereals and legumes. Improving market and input access and the affordability of business development and financial services tailored to the needs of smallholders is critical in order to ―pull‖ rural households into income-raising activities.
Integrating Nutrition with Value Chains (INVC)
INVC is designed to combine the livelihood benefits of an agricultural value chain approach with the nutrition benefits of increased dietary diversification. This centerpiece of Malawi’s FTF strategy will invest in the competitiveness of food staple value chains in which large numbers of smallholders, over 56 percent of whom are below the poverty line, participate, and link increased household production of nutritious crops to household consumption and improved nutritional status. INVC will link value chain development and increased household income to improved nutrition through diet diversification, and improvements in food storage, preparation, and consumption practices at the household level.
INVC’s value chain approach will focus on legumes (groundnuts and soy) and dairy, and is designed to facilitate change in both the individual value chains and the broader market and household-farming systems, looking for synergies across value chains such as common constraints and/or actors. A strong emphasis will be placed on improving the demand side of the value chain, by working to improve market linkages between input and output dealers through improved and more reliable services, including financial, business development, agronomic and livestock-related services. While most of INVC’s efforts will further develop and strengthen Malawi’s existing input and output markets serving the legumes and dairy value chains, the program will also include strengthening the capacity of processors and agribusinesses to meet export market demands, as well as building the capacity of smallholder suppliers to meet buyer demands. At the same time, INVC will work to mitigate the risks for rural households to diversify their income and food sources beyond maize through an option of conducting a vulnerability assessment for its target population and to access nutritional education that will help them translate a more diverse basket of food into improved nutrition. INVC will place a particular emphasis on women’s economic empowerment across all of its activities, including additional support and guidance to women owned businesses and women producers.
INVC will spur investment and innovation in the legume and dairy value chains through an Innovation and Investment Facility meant to provide INVC a tool to identify and support specific opportunities that can further strengthen the selected value chains and market systems within which they operate. An important use of the facility will be to buy down risk for a firm, farmer, or other value chain actor in order to encourage early adoption of new technologies, such as CF by smallholders, and spur sector-wide innovation. Facility partners may include private firms, GoM agencies, research institutes, NGOs or other local organizations, as well as other donors best placed to identify new solutions to key value chain and systemic43 constraints. This Innovation and Investment Facility will be a key instrument for developing the capacity of the private sector and will also have targets and incentives for the participation of women-owned enterprises or individuals.
A core principle of INVC will also be to build the capacity of the key value chain actors to address the competitiveness of their value chain through their own projects and interventions. As such, INVC will place a strong emphasis on building local capacity to contribute to and invest in agricultural transformation. While Malawi has numerous small businesses, local NGOs and private sector and civil society organizations, few, if any, have both the technical and administrative capacity to implement USAID projects without support. As such, INVC’s approach to capacity building will be to invest resources in local partners while leveraging their local knowledge and capacity to generate results. The project will have a target for graduating local partners to independent status that would allow them to receive USAID funds directly. As partners reach this independent status, they would take on current functions of INVC.

Given the importance of reliable input supplies to Malawi’s FTF strategy, USAID and Irish Aid will partner to expand local capacity for production of quality, certified legume seed. USAID will invest in expanding the existing revolving fund and link in the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture to enable the expansion of their efforts in soy breeder seed production.

With a focus on smallholder farmers, particularly women, Feed the Future supports partner countries in developing their agriculture sectors to spur economic growth that increases incomes and reduces hunger, poverty, and undernutrition. Feed the Future efforts are driven by country-led priorities and rooted in partnership with donor organizations, the private sector, and civil society to enable long-term success. Feed the Future aims to assist millions of vulnerable women, children, and family members to escape hunger and poverty, while also reaching significant numbers of children with highly effective nutrition interventions to prevent stunting and child mortality.
Over the next five years in Malawi, Feed the Future aims to help an estimated 281,000 vulnerable Malawian women, children, and family members—mostly smallholder farmers—escape hunger and poverty. More than 293,000 children will be reached with services to improve their nutrition and prevent stunting and child mortality. Significant numbers of additional rural populations will achieve improved income and nutritional status from strategic policy engagement and institutional investments.
","In view of the capacity challenges that exist, USAID will strengthen the capacity of the GoM to plan, implement, monitor and evaluate nutrition programs. With substantial funding increases anticipated through the FTF, USAID/Malawi will ensure that GoM institutions have adequate capacity to implement the various programs that will be designed under the initiative. This activity is in line with Strategic Objective Three of the NNPSP, which clearly outlines the capacity gaps and needs for the nutrition sector in Malawi. The USG will strengthen capacity of its partners, both government and non- governmental, as well as the private sector. USG support will be at three levels: community, institutional and tertiary. Irish Aid, the World Bank, CIDA, and the EU are all key donors in capacity building.
Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System (SAKSS)
Since 2008, USAID/Malawi has supported a SAKSS unit implemented through the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) at the MoAFS. The objectives of this activity are threefold: 1) generate demand-driven diagnostic and strategic research to fill key knowledge gaps, 2) establish an information and knowledge support system, in cooperation with the Southern Africa Regional Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System that has been set up to help promote peer and progress review of the CAADP, and 3) strengthen the capacity of national institutions, such as the MoAFS, in policy and strategy research. The Malawi Mission plans to extend the work of the SAKSS unit as part of capacity building support under FTF.
Malawi Agriculture Policy Strengthening (MAPS)
Strong civil society and private sector networks are critical to implementing the ASWAp in a way that responds to the evolving needs of its stakeholders. In recent decades, weak capacity and declining GoM interest in inclusive policy making is leading Malawi’s CAADP process towards a Government-owned rather than Country-owned process. Grounded in the CAADP principles of increasing stakeholder participation in the policy making process,44 the Malawi Agriculture Policy Strengthening (MAPS) program is designed to increase the participation of private sector and civil society stakeholders in agriculture policy dialogue.
MAPS will increase the profile, capacity and engagement of civil society and private sector stakeholders in agriculture policy development and implementation through a combination of capacity building interventions and establishing linkages between producers and consumers, including state and non-state actors, of high quality policy research. Though not exclusively, MAPS will focus on key stakeholders along the proposed FTF value chains.
MAPS capacity building activities will focus on improving organizational ability to meet its goals and objectives by strengthening administrative and financial management, organizational structure and strategic planning. The second focus of the project will strengthen policy analysis and advocacy capacity through building linkages between Malawian farmers and private sector associations and regional networks and research institutions, such as local and regional universities among civil society groups. MAPS will similarly link GoM counterparts to those research institutions to improve their ability to become informed consumers of stakeholder policy advocacy. These two components will account for the varying levels of development and readiness of organizations and associations in Malawi to take on advocacy activities. MAPS will also focus on elevating the voices of women in policy dialogue by targeting women-led civil-society/public service organizations for organizational capacity building and providing additional women-focused leadership training and gender equity sensitization to facilitate women taking on leadership roles within larger organizations.
","An important element of the multi-year FTF Strategy is monitoring and evaluation, which is an iterative learning process that will put into place the principle of a sustained and accountable delivery approach. Program activities must be monitored through periodic field visits by Mission staff and ongoing monitoring and learning by implementing partners. Mission staff has a key role to play in monitoring and learning from partners both through oversight and input to design of project level M&E plans and systems and also through follow-up on quarterly reports and other communication with partners.
The integration of agricultural, nutrition, and health elements into a joint strategic plan provides a unique opportunity to innovate, document, and demonstrate best practices associated with a concurrent multi-sector investment model. Also, the Malawi FTF Strategy will foster linkages among existing programs, which will harmonize key agriculture and nutrition and indicators across relevant areas of focus.
Building on this collaboration, both the Health and Sustainable Economic Growth (SEG) teams at USAID/Malawi will work together to integrate M&E systems and processes in order to track synergies and multiplier effects between the two sectors not captured through the agriculture/nutrition overlap. There is currently significant USG investment on the part of USAID through PEPFAR and GHI in health systems strengthening, family planning, and malaria and tuberculosis reduction among others in the geographic areas targeted through FTF. We believe it is critical to capture at the highest level the combined impact of FTF and GHI/PEPFAR in order to reduce duplication, increase the applicability of data across interventions and most importantly, learn across programs in order to improve and increase efficiency and impact of all USAID investments in Malawi. This integration of M&E function may take the form of harmonized M&E plans at the implementer level combined with joint monitoring visits by SEG and Health team members.
Reliable and well-defined monitoring, reporting and evaluation methods, roles and communication channels result in improved project and program management, promote ongoing learning and testing of development hypotheses and ensure accountability. A fully functioning M&E team and system further help to illustrate the Mission’s value added to overall development not only to key stakeholders in the USG, but also to the GoM and other development partners.
USAID/Malawi is currently refining Mission processes in line with the requirements and recommendations of the newly announced USAID Evaluation Policy. To that end, and in preparation for the Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS), SEG will identify further impact evaluation questions and set aside funds for impact evaluation in 2011. This will serve as solid preparation for FTF-focused evaluation activities in subsequent years.

A whole-of-government initiative led by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Feed the Future leverages the strengths of multilateral institutions, civil society and the private sector. Globally we aim to assist 18 million vulnerable women, hildren, and family members – mostly smallholder farmers – escape hunger and poverty. Together, we will increase agricultural productivity, decrease poverty, drive economic growth, and reduce undernutrition to improve millions of lives.
Over the next five years in Uganda, Feed the Future aims to help an estimated 709,000 vulnerable Ugandan women, children and family members—mostly mallholder farmers—escape hunger and poverty. More than 450,000 children will be reached with services to improve their nutrition and prevent stunting and child mortality. Significant numbers of additional rural populations will achieve improved income and nutritional status from strategic policy engagement and institutional investments.
To meet its objectives, Feed the Future Uganda is making core investments in three key areas:
1. Nutrition
2. Agriculture. The maize, coffee and bean belt are in Southwest and Central Uganda. The choice to focus on these value chains represents considerations regarding Ugandan government priorities, division of donor labor, and the highest impact interventions for the expected scale of Feed the Future resources.
3. Connecting Nutrition to Agriculture
USAID will build on previous strategic investments in nutrition and take them to scale in the areas and populations of greatest need to support the GOU and private sector to reduce chronic undernutrition in the country with a primary focus on prevention. Through these interventions an estimated 709,000 vulnerable Ugandan women, children, and family members—mostly smallholder farmers—will receive targeted assistance to escape hunger and poverty. More than 450,000 children will be reached with services to improve their nutrition and prevent stunting and child mortality. The core investments in nutrition will focus on community and facility based prevention and treatment, targeted nutrition service delivery, the enabling environment for nutrition and capacity building.
Community and Facility-Base Prevention and Treatment
By emphasizing prevention, FTF programs will help to reduce not only chronic undernutrition, but should also reduce the number of severely/acutely malnourished children as well, resulting in fewer children outside HIV and emergency situations needing treatment for severe acute malnutrition. For the treatment of acute malnutrition, Uganda has adopted a national protocol for the Integrated Management of Acute Malnutrition (IMAM). Through a ommunity and facility based approach to treating under nutrition, therapeutic and/or supplementary food is provided to severe or moderately malnourished children, with medical support, nutrition education, and at-home follow up through community based volunteers. FTF and PEPFAR’s partnership on the production, distribution, and management of RUTF support the larger national IMAM protocols.
Capacity Building
Capacity building at the national and district level is critical. Nutrition has only recently become a priority in the health sector, and without strong nutrition champions and policies centrally, nutrition priorities will not be realized. USAID will continue to train health workers in new IMAM guidelines for use in health facilities and will expand technical assistance and capacity building at the national level beyond the health sector to include Agriculture and other ministries who can contribute to a national action plan on nutrition.
","Some key outputs of nutrition activities are: nutrition officers placed in a majority of districts; active Food and Nutrition Councils organized in districts; mandatory fortification of major manufactured foods; therapeutic food reconstituted from locally available foods developed and distributed to district and regional hospitals; and community behavior changes to prevent undernutrition.
","PERFORMANCE MONITORING
Through an interactive approach across Mission teams and in collaboration with other donors and the GOU, the USG FTF effort will go beyond the status quo of performance monitoring. At the basic level, data will be collected by implementing partners and reported to USAID/Uganda through quarterly reports while quality will be assessed via Data Quality Assessment visits to the field.
IMPACT EVALUATION
To build an evidence base to adjust ongoing projects and inform future programs, we will design rigorous impact evaluations for select FTF programs. We have already identified such an opportunity with our Community Connector program, which fully integrates agriculture and nutrition activities at the household level. Discussions have been held with partners within the MIT Poverty Action Lab consortium on the use of Randomized Control Trial (RCT) experiments. We will use the results of these impact evaluations to test the hypotheses of our FTF strategy and make mid-stream adjustments to programs if necessary, or scale up programs that are working well. Using the earning component of FTF programs like Community Connector is in line with the Mission’s continuing CLA component. We will also partner with other donors to disseminate and promote lessons learned. USAID/Uganda, through unbiased and independent impact evaluations, will identify interventions that work; we will be an active contributor to the greater discourse in testable development hypotheses and our programs will benefit from our increased understanding
CAPACITY BUILDING/SUPPORT TO DATA COLLECTION
A key component of our Feed the Future program will be capacity building of the Government of Uganda in the collection, analysis, and use of agriculture and nutrition data for planning, monitoring, and evaluation. We will work with all relevant government agencies and ministries including the Uganda Bureau of Statistics, the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries, and the Ministry of Health. We will work in partnership with the National Planning authority as they attempt to convene the multisectoral Food and Nutrition Council as a cohesive and functional unit. We will seek to build local academic institutions’ capacity in nutrition through improved pre-service and in-service training, and enhanced research capacity. In addition to training in data collection and assistance in improving data systems, we will build analytical capacity in the Ministry of Agriculture by establishing a Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System (SAKSS) node.
NUTRITION COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND SUPPORT PROGRAM (CRSP)
We will use the Nutrition CRSP to assist us with specific research questions that tell us about the impact of our nutrition-related FTF programs. We have already had preliminary discussions with a Nutrition CRSP team. The Nutrition CRSP is intended to investigate effective ways of translating research results into widespread development practice. The CRSP anticipates the development of a well-balanced research strategy that is both innovative and problem solving, responds to the food and nutrition scientific needs, and to the capacity development requirements of Uganda. USAID/Uganda, through the CRSP, will be better positioned to build more effective strategies and programs, while establishing a research capacity within the Mission and the country as a whole. As programs continue to be developed and procured in the coming months, the CRSP will assist in collecting the relevant local and international knowledge base needed to better implement, evaluate, and learn from our programs. Within individual programs, the CRSP will be an active participant in identifying and rigorously measure testable hypotheses related to food security.

Targeted Nutrition Service Delivery – Fortification and Supplementation
Targeted nutrition service delivery is focused primarily on approaches to reduce specific micronutrient
deficiencies in Uganda. FTF will continue to support vitamin A supplementation and de-worming for
children and iron folic acid supplementation and de-worming for pregnant women at the facility level,
through district-level health programs in target geographical areas. In addition, food fortification
activities will be supported to improve the necessary vitamin and mineral content of staple foods that
will reach a larger target audience, primarily in urban and peri-urban areas where fortified foods are
more accessible. This will build on previous work supported by the USG that has resulted in cooking
oil fortification with vitamin A that now covers more than 85 percent of the country’s market and the
fortification of maize and wheat flour with vitamin A, iron, zinc, folic acid and vitamin B12 and. New food fortification vehicles will be added that include sugar fortification with vitamin A.
The agriculture team is also looking at improved seed varieties to increase micronutrient content such as the orange-fleshed sweet potato, which has increased levels of beta-carotene (Vitamin A). The introduction of fortification of foods will be combined with educational activities that promote dietary diversity through the community and facility based programs.
As previously mentioned, a key component to treatment of undernutrition in Uganda is the production of therapeutic and complementary foods. USG’s Feed the Future will expand on previous investments in local ready-to-use therapeutic food production to increase availability and distribution in health facilities across the country to treat acute undernutrition.
Enabling Environment
Our program will work to leverage other sectors (e.g., agriculture, water, public/private, etc) to create demand for fortified foods, adopt good nutrition behaviors, and activities like exclusive breastfeeding and integrated nutrition/WASH/food hygiene. Advocacy efforts will continue to emphasize the importance of nutrition among key stakeholders. Uganda is one of the countries that is taking on the Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) initiative spear headed globally by the Irish Government, U.S. Government and the UN. SUN focuses on integration of relevant sectors with a view to addressing the window of opportunity within the 1,000 days (from minus 9 months to 24 months). We will work to harmonize FTF and SUN activities to maximize efficiency and national coverage in close consultation with MOH, MAAIF and other stakeholders. Through the existing micronutrient fortification program that has successfully enriched common staples such as oil and flour, FTF will continue to advocate for mandatory fortification of manufactured foods.

3. Connecting Nutrition to Agriculture
Priority Value Chains
Our investments will focus on value chains with the greatest market potential, the highest number of farmers, and the greatest income potential for farmers. Impact on nutrition and role of gender were also critical considerations in our value chain focus, as was the potential for sector-wide impact and maximum return on investment. Many of the value chain components have integrated nutrition and agriculture dimensions. The starting point for this strategy is the Government of Uganda’s Agriculture Sector Development Strategy and Investment Plan (DSIP) where ten priority value chains were selected. In looking at each commodity, maize and coffee stood out as key drivers for conomic growth in terms of number of farmers, market demand, and income potential. Most of the Ugandan staple diet is built around other staples like beans, cassava, and banana – leaving maize to function more as a cash crop that responds to regional food security and trade demands, rather than as a household staple. Fish, dairy and livestock were also considered. However all three present a number of challenges that would require substantially higher levels of investment to address and would deliver a much lower rate of return for dollar invested.
Value-chain Investments
Policy - The USG FTF strategy will support a five-year policy reform initiative in agriculture, trade, health and gender equity. Some examples of policy priorities include the passage of Uganda’s Biotechnology and Bio-safely bill, effective implementation of the Agricultural Chemicals Control Act (1989, amended in 2006) which establishes a licensing regime for insecticides, herbicides, fungicides and fertilizers, and controls and regulates the manufacture, storage, distribution, trade, import, and export of agricultural chemicals, effective implementation of the Agriculture Seeds and Plant Act (1994) which regulates seed companies operating or importing plant material into Uganda, and passage of the Food and Nutrition Bill and related Health, Nutrition and Sanitation policies for a proposed National Food and Drug Authority. Review of Uganda’s marriage and family act lays out the ownership and control of assets for women. It is critical to address key gender components of legislation.
Capacity Building - Support to strengthen key public and private sector institutions at the national and district levels is essential to the overall success of our Feed the Future activities. This five-year set of activities will focus on building capacity within the Uganda Bureau of Statistics, and Ministries of Health and Agriculture to collect and analyze data, and to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of their programs. There will also be a short, medium, and long-term training and education component to develop the next generation of Uganda decision makers.
Agriculture Research – Feed the Future will support continued research in three areas:Biotechnology to protect food security crops from serious disease threat – specifically cassava (Cassava MOSAIC) and banana (Banana Wilt (BXW) and Black Sigatoka Disease); breeding to increase stress tolerance and disease resistance for Feed the Future focus crops (maize, coffee and beans); and partnership with Harvest Plus to scale-up the production and mainstream marketing of bio-fortified/nutritionally enhanced crop varieties - specifically Orange-fleshed Sweet Potato and high zinc/iron beans.
Increased Quality and Production – USG will contribute to a $50 million partnership with DANIDA, the EU, Belgium, and Sweden to address farm-level constraints to quality and production in maize, beans and coffee. The program will also focus on increasing farmer access to financial services and supporting trade-related sanitary and phytosanitary standards and quality management systems. Agro-Input Supply - A five-year program to increase the quality, availability, and use of inputs. This program will build the capacity of the Uganda National Agriculture Input Dealers Association (UNADA) and private sector retailers.
Farm-level Aggregation and Market Linkages - This program will work to build the capacity of farmer organizations to enter into agreements with major buyers, access finance, purchase inputs, bulk, clean, and process their commodities. The program will work in conjunction with the Abi-Trust Partnership (DANIDA) and emphasize linkages to the WFP's Purchase for Progress efforts and the Uganda Commodity Exchange.
Market-Information System - This program will work with local partners to utilize the latest in information and communications technology to address market information gaps for smallholder farmers.

We will work with all relevant government agencies and ministries including the Uganda Bureau of Statistics, the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries, and the Ministry of Health. We will work in partnership with the National Planning authority as they attempt to convene the multisectoral Food and Nutrition Council as a cohesive and functional unit. We will seek to build local academic institutions’ capacity in nutrition through improved pre-service and in-service training, and enhanced research capacity. In addition to training in data collection and assistance in improving data systems, we will build analytical capacity in the Ministry of Agriculture by establishing a Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System (SAKSS) node.
NUTRITION COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND SUPPORT PROGRAM (CRSP)
We will use the Nutrition CRSP to assist us with specific research questions that tell us about the impact of our nutrition-related FTF programs. We have already had preliminary discussions with a Nutrition CRSP team. The Nutrition CRSP is intended to investigate effective ways of translating research results into widespread development practice. The CRSP anticipates the development of a well-balanced research strategy that is both innovative and problem solving, responds to the food and nutrition scientific needs, and to the capacity development requirements of Uganda. USAID/Uganda, through the CRSP, will be better positioned to build more effective strategies and programs, while establishing a research capacity within the Mission and the country as a whole. As programs continue to be developed and procured in the coming months, the CRSP will assist in collecting the relevant local and international knowledge base needed to better implement, evaluate, and learn from our programs. Within individual programs, the CRSP will be an active participant in identifying and rigorously measure testable hypotheses related to food security.

The CMAM approach enables community volunteers to identify and initiate treatment by referring children with acute malnutrition before they become seriously ill. Caregivers provide treatment for the majority of children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in the home using Ready-to-Use-Therapeutic Foods (RUTF) and receiving routine medical care at a local health facility. When necessary, severely malnourished children who have medical complications or lack an appetite are referred to in-patient facilities for more intensive treatment. CMAM programs also work to integrate treatment with a variety of other longer-term interventions such as Nutrition Education, Infant and Young Child Feeding and Food Security. These interventions are designed to reduce the incidence of malnutrition and improve public health and food security in a sustainable manner.
There are four key components to the CMAM approach: Community Mobilisation, Supplementary Feeding Program (SFP), Outpatient Therapeutic Program (OTP), and Stabilisation Centre/In-patient Care (SC). On the most part, World Vision does not set up Stabilisation Centres but instead works closely with existing local health institutions or medical NGOs to provide these services.
World Vision has been operational in Niger for almost two decades – implementing a wide range of long-term development activities across the country. Their work is structured alongside the model of comprehensive area development programs (known internally as ADPs). Each ADP has a Health & Nutrition component which seeks to deliver support through (while simultaneously strengthening) local health structures. In July 2005 and as a result of the 2005 food crisis in Niger that year, World Vision launched a community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) program based on the National Protocol for the Management of Acute Malnutrition. At that time, contacts were made with Valid International – aimed at establishing a partnership for an effective and quality delivery of the CMAM program. An institutional agreement between World Vision and Valid International was reached in July 2006, thus paving the way for the provision of technical support to the Niger CTC (now called CMAM) program.
As a part of the national nutrition strategy, WV is currently implementing CMAM in many decentralized government health centers throughout the country, with the support of partner NGOs (ex. Medecins Sans Frontieres). From the onset of CMAM program implementation, It has been integrated within the Ministry of Health structures such as the CSIs (Integrated Health Centers) with regular trainings of MOH health staff at national, regional and CSI levels based on the most revised version of the National Protocol, ultimately leading to the final version (i.e. Protocole Nationale de prise en Charge de la Malnutrition.

The ADPs serve as the basic intervention unit of the WV's multi-sectoral programs/projects (e.g. in education, water and sanitation, health, income-generating activities and sponsorship of children etc.), but the geographical areas of the ADPs do not necessarily align with administrative boundaries of the country. The whole ADP and program management structure is geared toward long-term development programming, into which the nutritional activities/programs such as Community-based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) are integrated.
Since July/August 2005, WV Niger has been implementing and supporting the following four components of a CMAM program:
All programmatic activities are implemented through the local health structures and systems and their respective catchment areas. The majority of the OTP and SFP activities are implemented in the Integrated Health Centers (CSI) but in order to achieve greater coverage and to bring supplementary facilities closer to communities, WV has also implemented the programs in Health Posts (CS) which are satellites of CSI. Most OTP take place together with SFP in CSI but few are located in CS as well. The OTP activities, including the provision of Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (Plumpy Nut) and the systematic treatments are conducted on a weekly basis, whereas the SFP activities, including the distribution of Fortified Blended Food (Premix with CSB (Corn Soya Based), oil, sugar) for MAM children and moderately malnourished PLWs are carried out bi-monthly basis. The numbers of OTP and SFP sites and staff per ADP differ depending on the target population size and needs.
The technical (nutrition related) and managerial structure of WV in Niger (WVN) includes two nutrition coordinators (East and West) and six regional nutrition supervisor mangers (one per region) who coordinate and harmonize nutritional activities through the different locations. All of them are supported by a relief-nutrition country manager based in Niamey. In each ADP, there is also a health-nutrition manager who is responsible for overseeing ADP related health and nutrition programs and staff. As the national health system is WV's principle partner, WVN staff always work in partnership/collaboration with Ministry of Health (MOH) staff. Currently, WVN staff mainly act as technical facilitators and help with the general management of the program activities such as site organization, training of the community volunteers who help during distributions, channeling food and medical supplies coming from UNICEF and WFP, and program monitoring. Depending on the ADP, there is also either one or two nurses who provides support to the MOH staff in the field.

Ongoing monitoring and evaluation of CMAM programs is essential for ensuring program targets are being reached. As of Spring 2010, WV is using a consolidated online database management system for CMAM programs. The system is a positive transformation from the existing Excel spreadsheets (template provided by Valid International) that were used during the first few years of WV CMAM programming by National Offices. A simple and systematic data management system allows multi-level program managers to easily retrieve CMAM data and make quick and accurate decisions based on the data that is available to them. In the early days of WV CMAM implementation, prompt access the Excel database was limited to the field staff throughout the year. However, WV’s online CMAM system aims to facilitate this overall data recovery process for WV Staff located in the National, Regional and Support Offices, and Global Health Centre, as well. The online system is carefully designed to be user friendly and applicable for WV staffs across partnership. Staff members are provided with password protected login identification and can access the different online pages that are relevant to their job responsibilities. In this way, they are able to input their monthly tally sheets, generate clear reports, predict future trends (including resources), provide timely input to all internal/external requests and access raw data sheets for further analysis. Furthermore, the quantitative indicators and data collection tools closely align themselves with what has been developed and used by different MOH, facilitating a simple integrating with existing administrative systems and standards in a particular country. All WV CMAM indicators and data collection tools have been standardized to complement the existing myriad of MOH and National Office requirements, as well as the International benchmarks (e.g. SPHERE). In addition to these standard indicators, the CMAM database also includes WV contextual data (e.g. # Registered Children, # Orphans & Vulnerable Children) that is mandatory with the Partnership’s Integrated Program Management.

The nutritional commodities for the treatment of SAM are supplied via UNICEF through the MOH supply structure. But there were some challenges due to logistical and organisational issues, including the local/global availability of RUTF. Solution: WV established a buffer stock to resolve the issue. ","Supplies","Problem: A lack of consistent supply of medicines to the CSIs risks the increase in morbidity and mortality from illnesses such as pneumonia and malaria which are major causes of mortality in malnourished children. The care of children under the age of five are free in Niger. However, there are frequent shortage in medicinal supply. Because of the exemption of the fee and the system of cost recovery are in place, in principle UNICEF does not provide for the medicines for activities related to CMAM program although some spot supplies are available they are often inadequate. Solution: WVN is, already involved in the provision of medicines through the activities of ADP and, in case of need, the support will be intensified during this period of crisis. In addition to the routine medicines used for the treatment of the children admitted in the OTP, it would be important that WVN also considers to provide, in the event of rupture, the medicines needed to treat the pathologies associated with malnutrition.","Staff skills/training","Problem: When CTC/CMAM was launched in Niger in 2005/2006, the national/international capacity available for CTC/CMAM implementation was very limited, resulting in a low quality program.Solution: WV developed an Instituational Agreement with Valid International to build their capacity in the overall management of acute malnutrition.","Staff retention","Problem: Due to the erratic funding cycles associated with CMAM programming, it was very difficult to retain staff (Community Mobilization volunteers, MOH staff and WV Staff) when funding cycles terminate. Furthermore, there are difficulties retaining volunteers and keeping them motivated to continue their activities.Solution: WVN established permanent positions, embedded within their ADP and National management structures, for ongoing CMAM program support, including during funding disruptions. Furthermore, WVN can help improve sustainability of the self governing of CSIs and management of volunteers by building capacity of the village health committees (COGES) as an ongoing development commitment. ","Insufficient staff"," Problem: In order to respond to the increased case load of SAM, the capacity of MOH (e.g. staff at CSIs) had to be increased. Solution: Rather than placing WV staff to manage the increased caseload, WV provided training and on-going support to strengthen volunteer capacity to manage SFP which will reduce workload of the health staff in the CSI thereby enabling them to address the more severe cases of malnutrition. This strategy appeared to be very effective in helping the MOH to cope with the case load. For Example: In three of the four CSIs sampled, it was found that the volunteers managed SFP completely thus relieving the existing CSI staff to manage SAM cases.

Earlier this year, her fourth child, Tinoumoune, was close to death. The eight-month old girl was dehydrated and losing weight. After treating her with traditional herbal remedies, Tinoumoune continued to become physically weaker and weaker and had a fever for eight days. Zeinaba says “My child was between life and death. She was fading away. I had not a droplet of hope.” Zeinaba bundled her daughter on her back and left early in the morning to walk the seven kilometres from her village to the closest health centre, which runs a community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) programme supported by World Vision. Tinoumoune was diagnosed with severe acute malnutrition and admitted to the nutrition programme, where she was treated with ready-to-use therapeutic food. “In two weeks, she regained weight and became stronger and healthier. I’m very happy.” explains Zeinaba. The family has been spared the grief of a second lost child.

The ADPs serve as the basic intervention unit of the WV's multi-sectoral programs/projects (e.g. in education, water and sanitation, health, income-generating activities and sponsorship of children etc.), but the geographical areas of the ADPs do not necessarily align with administrative boundaries of the country. The whole ADP and program management structure is geared toward long-term development programming, into which the nutritional activities/programs such as Community-based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) are integrated.
Since July/August 2005, WV Niger has been implementing and supporting the following four components of a CMAM program:
All programmatic activities are implemented through the local health structures and systems and their respective catchment areas. The majority of the OTP and SFP activities are implemented in the Integrated Health Centers (CSI) but in order to achieve greater coverage and to bring supplementary facilities closer to communities, WV has also implemented the programs in Health Posts (CS) which are satellites of CSI. Most OTP take place together with SFP in CSI but few are located in CS as well. The OTP activities, including the provision of Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (Plumpy Nut) and the systematic treatments are conducted on a weekly basis, whereas the SFP activities, including the distribution of Fortified Blended Food (CSB (Corn Soya Based), oil, sugar) for MAM children and moderately malnourished PLWs are carried out bi-monthly basis. The numbers of OTP and SFP sites and staff per ADP differ depending on the target population size and needs.
The technical (nutrition related) and managerial structure of WV in Niger (WVN) includes two nutrition coordinators (East and West) and six regional nutrition supervisor mangers (one per region) who coordinate and harmonize nutritional activities through the different locations. All of them are supported by a relief-nutrition country manager based in Niamey. In each ADP, there is also a health-nutrition manager who is responsible for overseeing ADP related health and nutrition programs and staff. As the national health system is WV's principle partner, WVN staff always work in partnership/collaboration with Ministry of Health (MOH) staff. Currently, WVN staff mainly act as technical facilitators and help with the general management of the program activities such as site organization, training of the community volunteers who help during distributions, channeling food and medical supplies coming from UNICEF and WFP, and program monitoring. Depending on the ADP, there is also either one or two nurses who provides support to the MOH staff in the field.

","Ongoing monitoring and evaluation of CMAM programs is essential for ensuring program targets are being reached. As of Spring 2010, WV is using a consolidated online database management system for CMAM programs. The system is a positive transformation from the existing Excel spreadsheets (template provided by Valid International) that were used during the first few years of WV CMAM programming by National Offices. A simple and systematic data management system allows multi-level program managers to easily retrieve CMAM data and make quick and accurate decisions based on the data that is available to them. In the early days of WV CMAM implementation, prompt access the Excel database was limited to the field staff throughout the year. However, WV’s online CMAM system aims to facilitate this overall data recovery process for WV Staff located in the National, Regional and Support Offices, and Global Health Centre, as well. The online system is carefully designed to be user friendly and applicable for WV staffs across partnership. Staff members are provided with password protected login identification and can access the different online pages that are relevant to their job responsibilities. In this way, they are able to input their monthly tally sheets, generate clear reports, predict future trends (including resources), provide timely input to all internal/external requests and access raw data sheets for further analysis. Furthermore, the quantitative indicators and data collection tools closely align themselves with what has been developed and used by different MOH, facilitating a simple integrating with existing administrative systems and standards in a particular country. All WV CMAM indicators and data collection tools have been standardized to complement the existing myriad of MOH and National Office requirements, as well as the International benchmarks (e.g. SPHERE). In addition to these standard indicators, the CMAM database also includes WV contextual data (e.g. # Registered Children, # Orphans & Vulnerable Children) that is mandatory with the Partnership’s Integrated Program Management.

This lack of consistency has also negatively affected the credibility of the SFP program within the community. In turn, this has reduced the overall number of caregivers accessing the SFP services and thus has become a barrier to access.Solution: Contingency planning by the Food Commodity Department and logistics within WV to avoid stock shortage. For example add an extra percentage onto projected estimations each month in order to always have stock in place. ","Communication","Problem: The lack of clarity over the use of RUSF (Ready-to-Use Supplementary Food) and the target group has introduced increased risks for MAM cases in more vulnerable age groups. These cases were not being treated properly, thereby reducing effectiveness of the SFP program. Solution: Clarification with written protocols on the use of RUSF and other nutritional commodities for MAM and the target groups should be made available in the CSIs. It is also essential that there is community sensitization/awareness in the CSI catchment communities on the MAM aspect of CMAM.","External factors","Problem - Conflicting admission criteria: Community Volunteers (Femmes Relais) screen children for MAM in the communities using MUAC. However, upon arrival to the CSI/CS, the same children are admitted into the program on the basis of W/H criteria (outlined in National Protocol). Due to the discrepancies between W/H and MUAC screening, children are rejected from the program. This can reduce the effectiveness of community mobilization because of the problem of rejection.Solution: In order to increase coverage of the program a mass screening was carried out in the 5 regions covered by WV. Over 40,000 children were screened which resulted in a subsequent increase in the SFP admission. ","External factors","Problem: Distance as a barrier to access. Some of the CSI are located very far from the communities that they are serving. Solution: Expand MAM treatment (i.e. SFP) to Health Posts (CS) in order to reduce distance travelled for beneficiaries thus helping to improve the program accessibility as well as reducing the work load in CSIs (however the program capacity must be assured before decentralising these services to health posts).","Staff skills/training","Problem: When CTC/CMAM was launched in Niger in 2005/2006, the national/international capacity available for CTC/CMAM implementation was very limited, resulting in a low quality program. Solution: WV developed an Institutional Agreement with Valid International to build their capacity in the overall management of acute malnutrition.","Staff retention","Problem: Due to the erratic funding cycles associated with CMAM programming, it was very difficult to retain staff (Community Mobilization volunteers, MOH staff and WV Staff) when funding cycles terminate. Furthermore, there are difficulties retaining volunteers and keeping them motivated to continue their activities. Solution: WVN established permanent positions, embedded within their ADP and National management structures, for ongoing CMAM program support, including during funding disruptions. Furthermore, WVN can help improve sustainability of the self governing of CSIs and management of volunteers by building capacity of the village health committees (COGES) as an ongoing development commitment. ","Insufficient staff","Problem: In order to respond to the increased case load of SAM, the capacity of MOH (e.g. staff at CSIs) had to be increased. Solution: Rather than placing WV staff to manage the increased caseload, WV provided training and on-going support to strengthen volunteer capacity to manage SFP which will reduce workload of the health staff in the CSI thereby enabling them to address the more severe cases of malnutrition. This strategy appeared to be very effective in helping the MOH to cope with the case load. For Example: In three of the four CSIs sampled, it was found that the volunteers managed SFP completely thus relieving the existing CSI staff to manage SAM cases.

The CMAM approach enables community volunteers to identify and initiate treatment by referring children with acute malnutrition before they become seriously ill. Caregivers provide treatment for the majority of children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in the home using Ready-to-Use-Therapeutic Foods (RUTF) and receiving routine medical care at a local health facility. When necessary, severely malnourished children who have medical complications or lack an appetite are referred to in-patient facilities for more intensive treatment. CMAM programs also work to integrate treatment with a variety of other longer-term interventions such as Nutrition Education, Infant and Young Child Feeding and Food Security. These interventions are designed to reduce the incidence of malnutrition and improve public health and food security in a sustainable manner.
There are four key components to the CMAM approach: Community Mobilisation, Supplementary Feeding Program (SFP), Outpatient Therapeutic Program (OTP), and Stabilisation Centre/In-patient Care (SC). On the most part, World Vision does not set up Stabilisation Centres but instead works closely with existing local health institutions or medical NGOs to provide these services.
World Vision has been operational in Niger for almost two decades – implementing a wide range of long-term development activities across the country. Their work is structured alongside the model of comprehensive area development programs (known internally as ADPs). Each ADP has a Health & Nutrition component which seeks to deliver support through (while simultaneously strengthening) local health structures. In July 2005 and as a result of the 2005 food crisis in Niger that year, World Vision launched a community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) program based on the National Protocol for the Management of Acute Malnutrition. At that time, contacts were made with Valid International – aimed at establishing a partnership for an effective and quality delivery of the CMAM program. An institutional agreement between World Vision and Valid International was reached in July 2006, thus paving the way for the provision of technical support to the Niger CTC (now called CMAM) program.
As a part of the national nutrition strategy, WV is currently implementing CMAM in many decentralized government health centers throughout the country, with the support of partner NGOs (ex. Medecins Sans Frontieres). From the onset of CMAM program implementation, It has been integrated within the Ministry of Health structures such as the CSIs (Integrated Health Centers) with regular trainings of MOH health staff at national, regional and CSI levels based on the most revised version of the National Protocol, ultimately leading to the final version (i.e. Protocole Nationale de prise en Charge de la Malnutrition. MOH Publique/UNICEF/OMS. Juin 2009).

Depending on the priorities and funding availability, some ADPs were able to integrate IYCF activities in the CMAM. These included carrying out weekly health and nutrition session on CMAM days at the CSIs (Health Centers) and reactivating PD Hearth approach to develop menus using new types of locally available foods for complementary feeding promotion. Additional objectives of IYCF included strengthening existing nutrition systems and capacity building through training of health workers and community volunteers on IYCF and carrying out a baseline survey on IYCF and quarterly monitoring of changes in behaviour (e.g. EBF rates, diversity of food groups in complementary feeding). However, apart from the weekly nutrition education sessions at the CSIs, some of the activities did not translate into action at the community level. For example, the training of national WV staff on IYCF did not cascade down to the community level with community volunteers and also did not translated into activities or development of monitoring tools at community level. Additionally, no baseline IYCF information was available and quarterly monitoring data had not been collected or was unavailable at community level.
NB: This program was funded for a year therefore continuation of the activities beyond the funding period is likely be sporadic as it will depend on various factors including staff and volunteer capacity and motivation.
","For Tillaberi and Niamey regions in July 2010-July 2011:
Nutrition education (incl. IYCF): Target 24,700; Achieved (by the 3rd quarter) 14,234
Number and percentage of infants 0-6 mos who are exclusively breastfed: Target 310 (10%); Achieved N/A
Number and percentage of children aged 6-24 mos who receive foods daily from 4 or more food groups: Target 3045 (40%); Achieved N/A
","Due to a lack of monitoring and reporting it was not possible to report on Infant and Young Child Feeding activities apart from nutrition education sessions at the health centers even if these activities had been occurring in an informal manner in the communities. But it appears that these activities had been strengthened and expanded towards the end of the programme cycle.

Due to the high resource (human & financial) intensity of implementing a CMAM program, it was not feasible to introduce IYCF activities until the latter program stages. At the beginning of the program, the MOH staff were trained in providing nutrition education sessions at CSIs on OTP/SFP days which included IYCF messages. Later on, national WV staff were trained on IYCF with the aim that they would cascade this training to the ADP level and then to the community level. However, the training did not continue to the community level (with community volunteers) until near end of the program period.
To strengthen IYCF component of CMAM including monitoring activities, the following activities are recommended:
1. Recruit community mobilisers at ADP level who will work with district Community Focal Points, WV ADP and National Community Mobiliser. The lack of WV community mobilisers at ADP level to work alongside the Nutrition Coordinators has risked a delay in training community volunteers and may have also prevented the implementation of community mobilization activities including IYCF activities and monitoring of these activities.
2. Ensure women are represented in nutrition programs. During the IYCF investigation the 50/50 presence of women as interviewers for the IYCF investigation ensured better access to women and thus the provision of more rigorous information regarding IYCF practices.
3. Develop monitoring tools for IYCF. E.g. How many IYCF sessions held and how many participated?
4. Carry out a representative and statistically significant baseline and final IYCF survey – for EBF rates and diversity of food groups.
