Action Plan on Nutrition

The EU has transmitted to the Council its Action Plan on Nutrition which outlines how the Commission plans to reach its commitment of reducing stunting in children under five by at least 10% (7 million children) of the World Health Assembly goal by 2025. The Action Plan addresses how its strategic objectives in the areas of governance, scaled up interventions and research are to be attained. It underscores the need to work closer with development players and partner countries so that common objectives are set and a strong accountability framework built to track progress.
