Increased # children / PLW receiving nutritional support within health services
Description
For 40 years, Groupe Nutriset has been developing treatment and prevention solutions for various forms of malnutrition, reaching nearly 150 million people, primarily young children. Due to aggravating factors such as climate change, humanitarian crises, and geopolitical conflicts, these needs are now enormous and almost immeasurable.
Good nutrition is essential for the development of human capital. It represents a sustainable investment and, for Countries, a crucial investment in their own development. So far, our solutions have been primarily deployed through UN agencies, but too many women and children are still left behind. To open new avenues, we are now strengthening our direct partnerships with governments to better integrate nutrition into the care pathways of pregnant and breastfeeding women, infants and young children, as well as hospitalized or outpatient patients, and in northern countries, to elderly people.
Our goal is to enable 1.5 million children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as sick or elderly individuals, who are regularly cared for in health centers and public hospitals, to have permanent and structured access to nutrition and sustainable follow-up, which they need for their development and/or health.
This commitment represents a new approach for the Group and will contribute to strengthening the role of nutrition in public and private hospital services. It spans over three years and requires an integrated approach, including public-private partnerships, nutrition awareness, training, monitoring and evaluation, advocacy for regular funding, rigor, and respect for commitments.
Progress will be tracked annually, by beneficiary category.
