Slide1
SUN is a
unique
Movement
founded
on the principle
that all
people have a
right
to
food &
good
nutrition. Slide2
It
unites
people
from
governments, civil society,
the United Nations, donors, businesses & researchers – in a collective effort to improve nutrition.Slide3
together
we
can achieve
what
no single effort could,
and
make the world a
healthier, stronger
place
for us all.Slide4
Over 165 million children under 5
are stunted as a result of malnutrition.
52 million children are too thin and require special treatment.
At the same time,
43 million children
are overweight - some
as a result of
poverty, when families are unable to afford a balanced, nutritious diet. 2 billion people are deficient in key vitamins & minerals
Why n
utrition? The factsSlide5
Adolescents learn better
&
achieve higher
grades
in
school
Girls &
women are well-nourished and have healthy newborn babies
Children receive proper nutrition and develop strong bodies & minds
Families
& communities
emerge out of poverty
Communities &
nations are productive & stable
The world is a safer, more resilient & stronger place
Young adults are better
able
to
obtain
work
& earn more
Why
n
utrition?
Because when..
Children receive proper nutrition and develop strong bodies & mindsSlide6
N
utrition investments can
help break the cycle of poverty and
increase a country’s GDP by at least
2 to 3% annually.
Investing
$1 in nutrition can result in a $30 return in increased health, schooling and economic productivity.
A smart investmentSlide7
“One of the most compelling investments is to get nutrients to the world’s undernourished. The benefits from doing so – in terms of increased health, schooling, and productivity – are tremendous,”
-
Nobel
laureate economist Vernon Smith
Experts agree
The Copenhagen Consensus 2012 Expert Panel of world renowned economists identified the smartest ways to allocate money to respond to ten of the world’s biggest challenges
.
They
agreed that fighting malnutrition should be the top priority for policy-makers & philanthropists. Slide8
ROOTED IN
Poverty
Disempowerment of women
Political & Cultural Environment
Insufficient access to affordable, nutritious
FOOD
throughout the year
Lack of
good
CARE
for mothers
& children & support for mothers on
appropriate child
feeding practices
Inadequate
access to
HEALTH
sanitation & clean water services
The causes
of malnutrition are
interconnectedSlide9
The SUN Movement
recognizes that
chronic malnutrition – or stunting - has multiple causes. That’s why it requires People and
Programmes to
work together
to put nutrition
into all development efforts, and develop sustainable solutions that work.Slide10

Across all approaches –
SUN supports equity for women
At the core of all efforts,
women are empowered
to be leaders in their families and communities, leading the way to a healthier and stronger world.Slide12
Countries
around the
world have committed to making
nutrition a priority
& global
partners
are
working together
to
support
the
efforts
of
SUN countries.
Countries are at the
center of
scaling up
nutritionSlide13
The SUN approach – starting in 2010
The Scaling
up
Nutrition Movement relies
on n
ational
l
eaders taking ownership and responsibility for delivering sustainable solutions to improve
nutrition in their countries.
Through country-led efforts that focus on equity and realization of rights,
SUN countries are enabling
women,
families & communities
to
create
stronger foundations
for
their people
& transforming
the
future
of our world.
SUN enables countries to take a collaborative approach
bringing
together the people
&
resources
needed
to rapidly
scale up nutrition-specific interventions as
well as implement cross-sector strategies that are nutrition-sensitive. Slide14
The SUN approach
Country governments lead national efforts to scale up nutrition.

Tracking and reporting
i
mpact
Establishing targets to measure impact:
Countries
are encouraged to establish their own targets for nutrition goals in the following areas
:
Universal access to affordable nutritious food, clean water, sanitation, healthcare and social protection Increased adoption of practices that contribute to good nutrition (such as exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months of life)
Optimal growth of children, demonstrated as reduced levels of stunting (low height for age) and wasting (low weight for height) Improved micronutrient
status, especially in women and children, demonstrated as reduced levels of
micronutrient deficiency
