Overview

Through Nutrition International’s Nutrition Technical Assistance Mechanism (NTEAM), the Technical Assistance for Nutrition (TAN) project is supporting the Government of Pakistan to Accelerate the Multi-Sectoral Response to Address Malnutrition in Punjab. This technical assistance is supporting the SUN Secretariat to implement provincial nutrition actions through collective and collaborative engagement of sectors, stakeholders and SUN networks. In light of COVID-19, Nutrition International has been supporting the Government to conduct an assessment of risks posed to nutrition by the pandemic to help focus the strengthening of nutrition programs, and helped develop the Punjab Provincial Nutrition Response Plan for COVID-19. The plan outlines 10 key areas to combat malnutrition during the pandemic, including WASH, capacity development, communication, gender equality, and disease management.
