NIPN participates in multi-sectoral action planning for food and nutrition security

On 9 November, the first meeting was held for annual operational planning with a multi-sectoral approach to food and nutrition security in the department of Totonicapán, in Guatemala.

This was done in coordination with the Secretariat for Food and Nutritional Security (SESAN), the institutions of the Food and Nutritional Security System (SINASAN), which integrate the Municipal Commissions for Food and Nutritional Security (COMUSAN) and the Departmental Commission for Food and Nutritional Security (CODESAN).

In addition, other projects were involved: the Project for the Improvement of Mother and Child Nutrition through Primary Health Care (PROMiNUTRI), funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA); the project Learning for Life (APV), implemented by Catholic Relief Services (CRS); and the project National Information Platforms for Nutrition (NIPN) phase II, implemented by CATIE (Tropical Agricultural Research and Higher Education Centre), which is funded by the European Union in Guatemala.
