Global nutrition report

The Global nutrition report (GNR) is a multi-stakeholder initiative comprised of global institutions led by experts in the field of nutrition. This project aims to provide the best available data in-depth analysis and expert opinion rooted in evidence to help drive action on nutrition where it is urgently needed. This project seeks to inform shape and inspire action with data and evidence on policy practice and financing which should strengthen accountability and progress in tackling poor diets and malnutrition globally. It also seeks to integrate gender in distinct ways to increase women’s representation in publications panels and governance bodies. It also aims to generate evidence on the disproportionate impact of malnutrition on women and girls. Project activities include: (1) synthesizing nutrition data and evidence through reports and articles; (2) hosting the Nutrition accountability framework including the shaping guidance registration and tracking of nutrition commitments by all stakeholders; (3) developing ambitious evidence-based and nutrition commitments; and (4) strengthening stakeholders’ nutrition commitments and informing their policies and actions with data and evidence.

The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) improved stakeholder engagement with evidence on the state of nutrition; (2) improved stakeholder capacity to develop and register nutrition commitments; (3) enabled stakeholders to report progress on nutrition commitments; and (4) increased stakeholder access to evidence on nutrition-related commitment progress to ensure accountability.
