Description

Overarching commitment (for commitments submitted pre-2025)

Title

Influence nutrition policy and practice

Description

By 2025, Concern will have three years of documenting and sharing its contribution to “policy and practice change” in support of more sustainable food systems, with a specific emphasis on strengthening partnerships by working with and through national and international level SUN and GAP structures towards better nutrition outcomes.

The Nutrition Year of Action has delivered commitments, both at the UN Food Systems Summit and at the Nutrition for Growth Summit. The promises of 2021 must inform the practices of 2022 and beyond, and the commitments need to lead to meaningful change for the people with whom Concern works. Concern will play its role in making this a reality, bringing good practice and evidence - including evidence of where systems and partnerships are failing to deliver to target communities - consistently to those who shape country policies and practices. Concern will seek innovative solutions to longer-term, complex challenges related to conflict, hunger and the climate crisis through focused thought leadership anchored in action-research. We will use our experience and learning to inform and work through the SUN and GAP structures at national and international level for replication of good practices.
