In May 2017, ENN published an new video interview with Gladys Mugambi, head of Kenya’s Nutrition and Dietetics Unit in the Ministry of Health and SUN Government Focal Point. In the video, Gladys discusses the nutrition sector’s past successes, current challenges and future perspectives in the country.

Gladys talks of the evolution of nutrition policy and programming in Kenya including what opportunities the SUN Movement has brought through work with in-country networks and sharing learning with other SUN countries in the region. She decribes the work currently going on in Kenya around financial tracking and the nutrition budget line, school feeding and working with devolved counties on nutrition.
