This report provides a background of the
situation of nutrition in India and the rationale of the
initiative presents an overview of the initiative, details
the activities accomplished and the achievements in the
state of Jharkhand, and at the national level and finally
presents the recommendations and lessons learnt at the state
and national level. The primary objectives of the initiative
was to demonstrate a set of strategic activities to build
commitment for nutrition, raise the level of public
discourse about nutrition, build a better understanding of
the critical gaps and issues to be addressed and advocate
for policy and program directions to address these and
enhance the commitment for nutrition. The prioritizing
nutrition initiative is situated against the above backdrop.
It recognizes that policies which aim to increase nutrition
level of Indians are developed at the national level, hence
to create conducive environment to achieve the goal of
nutrition secure nation it is important to have informed and
sensitized political leaders, media and civil society at the
national level. As health and nutrition, as well as the
other sectoral aspects that impact nutrition are governed by
state governments, building political and executive
commitment at state levels is imperative. Additionally, the
potential power of decentralized governance through
Panchayati raj institutions provides an opportunity to
bringing nutrition centre-stage to the village agenda. |
