The project’s first aim is to reduce child morbidity and mortality by scaling up proven nutrition interventions to the most vulnerable populations of northern Ghana. The key to the success of these interventions is an early identification of severely malnourished children by trained and appropriately equipped frontline health workers. This allows treating effectively most of the children at home by a simple provision of therapeutic food and micronutrient supplements. To ensure sustainability of the results and to help reduce the number of children facing undernutrition in the long term, the project will also assist the Government of Ghana in the development and implementation of a strong and coherent national nutrition policy. Finally, a gender sensitive nutrition information and surveillance system will be developed in the 3 northern regions to enable the government and development partners to improve monitoring of nutrition programs, decision-making and timely response in the three northern regions.

The project aims to improve agriculture, water and land resources; create strategic reserves to protect the nutritional status of at-risk groups (including children under five, pregnant and lactating women and people living with HIV/AIDS); and support the rehabilitation and recovery of agricultural livelihoods. This project contributes to alleviating chronic food security amongst vulnerable groups, targeting and assisting poverty reduction in the most susceptible areas of northern Ghana.

In particular, the targets for supplementary feeding of malnourished children under five and pregnant and lactating women are close to being achieved, and will likely be exceeded by the end of the project. The project has already exceeded the targets for the number of beneficiaries on its components Food for Assets (FFA) and Food for Training (FFT), and has reforested some 7,357 ha of land and rehabilitated 250 dams/dugouts.
","It is anticipated that all expected outcomes of increasing equitable access to food aid and prevention of malnutrition, particularly among children under five, pregnant and lactating women, including refugees; as well as to improving food consumption over the assistance period for targeted households, and people living with HIV/AIDS and their families; and increasing the targeted communities equitable access to livelihood assets, including assets for environmental conservation will be achieved.
