Promote and sustain diverse and nutritious diets

Government / Mauritania

April 2025 — December 2030

Description

The Government is committed to promoting and sustaining practices for the production, processing, fortification, preservation and marketing of nutrition-sensitive food products with high nutritional value, with a view to improving the availability, access and use of diversified food products within households, particularly for children aged 6-23 months. To this end, the following measures will be supported: the development of national standards strengthening the management of nutritional aspects throughout the chain from production to consumption, as well as the adoption of incentive measures (subsidies, exemptions, inspection, monitoring and traceability) and the promotion of the production and consumption of market garden and fruit products. The commitment will be followed by the rate of dietary diversification in children aged 6 to 23 months.
