NIPN @ SUN Global gathering - November 2019
On the 6th of November, representatives from the Global Support Facility and from the NIPNs of Lao PDR and Niger shared the experience of NIPN in a workshop entitled "More or better data for improved decision-making for nutrition?". Using data effectively enables actionable and strategic decision making, and the SUN Movement is committed to support and engage countries in filling those data gaps that limit their ability to track disbursements and achievements. The NIPN initiative pursues this objective. Topics discussed during this workshop include nutrition data challenges, gaps, duplication, recommended actions and collaborative mechanisms for sharing, convergence and harmonisation; as well as how nutrition information can be transformed into powerful stories that influence nutrition policies and results.
