About SUN MPTF
Established in March 2012 by the participating UN agencies and donor partners contributors, the fund aims to ensure receipt by governments, UN agencies, civil society and other stakeholders for their catalytic grants to develop and implement national efforts to strengthen nutrition. Not intended to replace other funding streams, the MPTF was established to enable or initiate action to strengthen the nutrition the country level in the absence of other sources of funding.
In addition to providing financial support to hire SUN actions at national level – including the creation and strengthening of platforms, multi-stakeholders, achieving balance, organizing the launch of the SUN Movement nationally, and facilitation exchange of experience at regional and global meetings – an initial funding priority of MPTF is to support the development and operation of platforms of civil society in the SUN countries.
