Goal action plan

Strengthen the transition between humanitarian and development programming across sectors for better nutrition, including increased investment in preparedness and recovery. Led by the government authorities this will be achieved through enhanced coordinaton between humanitarian and development actors, while being sensitive to the local context. This will include

-Jointly updating, implementing and financing national nutrition plans and policies;

-Jointly agreed coordination and oversight mechanisms, with clearly defined linkages and clear lines of accountability to bridge the humanitarian-development-peace divide;

-Sectoral minsitries with support of UN agencies and Nutrition cluster to develop and strengthen existing national and subnational coordination mechanisms, and link to other platforms and stakeholders, including Scaling Up Nutrition networks (SUN Business Network (SBN) SUN Civil Society Alliances (SCAs)).

- enhance the localization of humanitarian actions between the donors, UN, INGOs, NNGOs and government in Yemen

Progress will be assessed by the government every two years.
