OECD Nutrition Policy Marker to be embedded in FCDO systems from late 2022 and teams are integrating it into their investments.
Description
The UK will work to ensure that all relevant UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) partnerships and investments in areas that address humanitarian assistance, health, climate, economic development and sustainable agriculture include improving nutrition for women, girls and children as part of their objectives and use the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) nutrition policy marker (NPM) at the design stage. The commitment to using the NPM will support programme teams to ensure that they plan for and monitor the impact of their programmes on nutrition.
