To establish a framework of collaboration to accelerate the implementation of food/nutrition security policies for accelerating and up-scaling actions on nutrition in all African countries in line with SDG and Malabo Declaration
2016-2025 (10 years)
Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan (as of June 2018)
actions on the ground and capacity development of the actors
experiences through peer-learning among countries to deliver successful cases to the entire continent
especially on “multisector coordination mechanism” and “food based approach”
environment through advocacy activities.
The immediate causes : related to dietary intake and to health. Health sector interventions are needed (Nutrition-specific) The underlying causes : embedded in the household and community level context in which undernutrition occurs Agriculture, WASH, Education, Social Protection interventions are needed (Nutrition-sensitive) Conceptual framework of malnutrition by UNICEF

improve nutrition on the ground through multisectoral approach
different resources each gov’t and development partners may have in a participatory manner Important to note: ICSA development is a process of prioritization in terms of identifying the focus area (both geographical and nutrition issue) and a set pf potential intervention highlighting specific nutrient(s). Thus it does not mean to hinder nor discourage gov’t /stakeholders to take multisectoral nutrition actions in other areas, rather encourage to replicate analysis in the same/similar context and/or to adopt ICSA process in other areas.

sure, the gov’t is expected to design the project to implement it on the ground.

ICSA finalization/validation
ICSA conceptualization IFNA Sec. setup (Jul) Oct 2017, country survey was conducted to identify the potential area of intervention through IFNA
was conducted to draft its strategic guidance, called “IFNA Country Strategy for Action: ICSA” to tackle issues in ASAL
WS was conducted in Senegal with 10 IFNA countries to exchange draft ICSA, good practices and challenges Draft ICSA will be validated together with stakeholders in country confirming the area of intervention Project concept will be generated based on the finalized ICSA to bring impact on the ground In the form of project
For Africa where Food and Nutrition are secured…
