Goal action plan

The UK will work to ensure all relevant FCDO partnerships and investments, in areas including humanitarian, health, climate, economic development and sustainable agriculture, will consider improving nutrition for women, girls and children as part of their objectives and will score programmes against the marker at the point of design. The commitment to use the Policy Marker will support programme teams to ensure they plan for and monitor the impact of their programmes on nutrition.
