The objectives of the nutrition
sensitive social protection are: 1) target activities to the
most nutritionally vulnerable populations such as pregnant
women and children less than 24 months; 2) include nutrition
education and counseling activities within social protection
interventions to increase household awareness of care giving
and health seeking behaviors; 3) integrate nutrition
services into Social Protection (SP) interventions; and 4)
reduce the acute and long-term negative financial impacts of
external financial, price, and weather shocks by scaling up
programs in times of crises and by targeting shock-affected
areas. This guidance note aims to assist World Bank and
other program staff in maximizing the nutrition impacts of
health investments and policies, with a special focus on
under nutrition among women and children under two years of
age in developing economies. The strong synergies between
health and nutrition are highlighted and key evidence-based
nutrition interventions that can be delivered through the
health sector are presented. Implementing such interventions
is cost-effective and can achieve large reductions in
morbidity, mortality, and under nutrition, furthering health
sector goals. The main nutrition-related objectives that
fall within the health sector are outlined in the box below.
Evidence-based interventions to address each objective,
along with implementation considerations, are presented as
options to integrate nutrition interventions in health
investment and policies. To date, the scaling up nutrition
framework has been endorsed by over 100 partners worldwide
and 30 developing countries have committed to scaling up
nutrition. Leaders of these countries are prioritizing
nutrition as an investment in their people's growth,
and recognizing nutrition as an investment in economic and
social development to strengthen their nations. |
