UN Network for SUN rolls out consultative process to articulate its new strategy and identify its contributions to SUN 2.0

January 2016: The UN Network/REACH Secretariat has initiated a participative process with UN colleagues for developing the UN Network and REACH 2.0 Strategy, 2016-2020. A number of actors were consulted, including colleagues from the UN agencies at the global, regional and country levels, REACH facilitators as well as stakeholders from other SUN Networks. This strategy will address the recommendations of the REACH independent evaluation and will build on the SUN Strategy 2.0, the supporting SUN Roadmap and the UN Global Nutrition Agenda (UNGNA) v.1.0.

Further consultations were held in parallel with UN colleagues at the regional and global levels in early February to define the UN Network’s outputs within the SUN capability work streams of the new SUN Roadmap. These efforts involve the articulation of the role and responsibilities of the UN Network (including the relevant UN agencies, REACH) within the SUN Movement, the timeframe of these outputs and collaboration/linkages with other SUN Networks, as appropriate.
