Overarching commitment (for commitments submitted pre-2025)

Title

I am a frontline nutrition manager.

Description

I need supplemental documents to update my technical skills and provide necessary, scientifically sound support to field-based staff, particularly regarding nutrition in emergencies and development contexts. My country is always prone to drought and human-induced disasters, like conflicts and the displacement of refugee and internally displaced people (IDP), the most vulnerable people in need of nutrition support and healthcare. I need reference material from the USAID website and more to address stunting, wasting and underweight, anaemia reduction and adolescent and young girls’ nutrition.
