On the 16 July 2014, a conference call was organized among participants from the SUN global Networks and from specialized technical agencies to follow-up on the Nairobi Workshop on Costing and Financial Tracking held in November 2013. The agenda included stock-taking of national-level costing exercises as well as assessment on the current status of financial tracking of domestic and external resources. Different methodologies and tools are already available to countries to assist in costing of interventions for scaling up of nutrition efforts. Methodologies to accelerate tracking of Government resources for nutrition were also discussed and key lessons learnt were shared by the Donor Network on their agreed methodology to track donor resources for nutrition. The main outcome from this conference call was to build agreement on the methodologies that will be commonly used and to discuss next steps in costing and financial tracking leading up to the SUN Movement Global Gathering in November 2014.
