Development of a nutrition platform/information system
Description
The Mozambique government, under the leadership of the Technical Secretariat for Food Security and Nutrition (SETSAN), and in collaboration with different entities, including the National Statistics Institute (INE), National Agency for Geospatial Development (ADE), National Institute of Electronic Governance (INAGE) and Ministry of Communication and Digital Transformation (MCTD), commits to developing the National Food Security and Nutrition Information System (SNISAN) by the fourth quarter of 2025 and its operationalisation at all levels (central, provincial, district) by December 2026, with the objective of informing decision-making processes.
Key actions include:
At the technical level:
• Ensure SNISAN is functional at all levels (central, provincial, districts).
• Finalise the development of monitoring analytical models for food security and nutrition status.
• Finalise the development of a mapping and monitoring model for the PESAN operational plans.
• Develop operational procedure for data collection, organisation and analysis (i.e., feeding analytical models).
• Define and acquire the software architecture (ArcGIS, Tableau, etc.) and necessary engineering for the functioning of the system.
• Establish linkages/interoperability with other existing and relevant information systems.
At the strategic level:
Mobilise technical assistance support for the operationalisation of SNISAN.
The means of verification will be the existence of an active and accessible SINSAN platform/system.
