La evaluaci¨®n intermedia de la Entrega de Alimento Complementario Fortificado (ACF) en Guatemala (Nutrini?os) durante el periodo 2020-2022 fue promovida conjuntamente por el Ministerio de Desarrollo Social (MIDES), el Ministerio de Salud P¨²blica y Asistencia Social (MSPAS), la Secretar¨ªa de Seguridad Alimentaria y Nutricional de la Presidencia (SESAN) y el Programa Mundial de Alimentos (PMA), con el triple prop¨®sito de obtener aprendizajes, rendir cuentas a las partes interesadas y orientar el dise?o de un futuro programa que d¨¦ continuidad a la iniciativa actual.
Ce R¨¦sum¨¦ des constats d¡¯Evaluation r¨¦pond ¨¤ une demande formul¨¦e par l¡¯unit¨¦ Genre du Bureau R¨¦gional du Programme alimentaire mondial (PAM) en Afrique de l¡¯Ouest, de consolider les enseignements fournis par les ¨¦valuations sur l¡¯¨¦galit¨¦ de genre et l¡¯autonomisation des femmes.
The evaluation focused on three key dimensions of analysis around which the expected results of the policy can be articulated, namely: i) Strategic repositioning; ii) Programme quality and results and iii) Management, governance and accountability. In doing so, it also tried to capture unintended outcomes, positive and negative.
This decentralized evaluation, commissioned by the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Mozambique Country Office, examines the performance of the Gender Transformative and Nutrition Sensitive (GTNS) project in 49 villages in the Chemba district from October 2019 to July 2023.
For over a decade, Â鶹ÊÓƵ has been supporting climate risk insurance as an important piece of the strategy for building women¡¯s economic empowerment. Â鶹ÊÓƵ presents the story of women that have access to Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s climate risk insurance and related interventions.
Women play a critical role in global food production and food systems, but they remain disproportionately food insecure compared to men. When women and girls have better access to information, resources, services, decision-making, education and economic opportunities, the result is increased food security and improved nutrition.
The strategic evaluation of Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s work on nutrition and addressing HIV and AIDS policies serves the dual purpose of accountability and learning, particularly the latter.
The evaluation was commissioned by the independent Office of Evaluation to provide evaluative evidence for accountability and learning to inform the design of the next Â鶹ÊÓƵ CSP in Nigeria.
The evaluation was commissioned by the independent Office of Evaluation to provide evaluative evidence for accountability and learning to inform the design of the next Â鶹ÊÓƵ programme in Algeria. It covers Â鶹ÊÓƵ activities implemented from 2018 to June 2021 and also takes into consideration the preceding transitional interim country strategic plan.
Â鶹ÊÓƵ Palestine commissioned this study to assess gender dynamics and power relations in Â鶹ÊÓƵ Palestine beneficiary households and propose recommendations to improve the gender transformative potential of Â鶹ÊÓƵ programming. Co-funded by UN Women.
These decentralized evaluations were commissioned by the Â鶹ÊÓƵ School-Based Programmes Team to cover the Breaking Barriers for Girls' Education (BBGE) Programme in Chad and Niger (2019-2022). The evaluations were jointly carried out by UNICEF, UNFPA, and Â鶹ÊÓƵ in 2023.
Lack or near absence of minimum support price is the key limitation for the production of small millet crops in the country. Bringing small millets under MSP will create a supportive environment that has long term dividends ranging from sustainable food and nutrition security to protection of environment.
Despite being a staple food in semi-arid tropics and drought-prone regions in India, millets consumption is low as people perceive it as traditional, coarse and of low aspirational value. Investment through increased awareness, availability of quality products that appeal to people¡¯s taste, acceptance of millets as climate smart nutritious diet will not only enhance dietary diversity but also will put pressure on improving supply.
Inadequate availability of efficient millet processing equipment in our country, is one of the key limitations of the millet ecosystem. It can be addressed by encouraging research and development to bring highly competitive processing equipment in the market.
Millets are classified as ¡°coarse grains¡± and are a part of staple diet in some parts of rural India. While millets are nutritionally superior to cereals, their consumption is skewed to subsistence farmers or families belonging to lower income strata. There has been newfound demand in urban markets, however it is yet not significant to accelerate movement across value-chain.
