This advocacy brief lays out ways to strengthen WFP’s engagement in nutrition-sensitive social protection in countries supported by the Regional Bureau for the Middle East, North Africa, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. It is a call for action advocating for nutrition-sensitive social protection, supporting the most vulnerable.
Ensuring national social protection systems are nutrition-sensitive at different levels, the brief highlights pieces of evidence on the need for, as well as the impact of nutrition-sensitive social protection. It identifies potential entry points, and opportunities in the development and implementation of national responses, poverty-reduction and development plans; and it speaks to broader social policies, programmes and schemes.
