Goal action plan
IFNA will support one country with an existing and functioning agriculture (or health) information system, to integrate nutrition indicators therein. This will help the country in CAADP/ Malabo biannual reporting as well as reporting on other global and national food and nutrition targets. Having the nutrition sensitive agriculture and food systems indicators integrated in national information systems will ensure that the country is able to collect and monitor these critical indicators.
