Increased financial investment in nutrition.

The Nepal government commits to increasing its investment from NPR 20,803 million (US$160 million) in 2024 to a total of NPR 148,343 million (US$1,141 million) over six years (by 2030) to implement nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions under the Multisector Nutrition Plan III (MSNP-III) across all seven provinces and 753 local levels. This increased investment aims to strengthen nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive programmes across all seven provinces and 753 local levels, ensuring greater coverage and equitable access and impact, particularly among vulnerable populations such as women, children and adolescents. Progress will be monitored through annual financial tracking assessments, evaluating budget allocation and expenditure across seven sectors – nutrition governance, health, agriculture and food systems, education, women and children, social protection and water, sanitation and hygiene.
