UN Network for SUN webinar series: Achieving increased UN coherence on nutrition through UN network actions

The UN Network for SUN hosted a webinar with SecureNutrition as part of an ongoing series. Speakers introduced the UN Nutrition Inventory tool to stakeholders and colleagues, and described ongoing strategies to align nutrition initiatives across UN agencies. The United Nations agencies support countries to address the multiple forms of malnutrition from nutrition governance to normative guidance and implementation support. While these UN nutrition actions are complementary, they are sometimes uncoordinated on the ground, leading to fragmentation, gaps and/or duplication of efforts, which can undermine both efficiency and impact.

We are pleased to invite you to the final UN Network for SUN webinar of 2017, held in collaboration with the SecureNutrition platform. The webinar will highlight country-examples of UN Network (collective) action, illustrating how they have helped country UN Networks to better collaborate on nutrition and exploit synergies in support of national nutrition efforts.

The webinar will be dedicated exclusively to UN Network colleagues, and will include a brief demonstration of the new online version of the UN Nutrition Inventory tool – unveiled for the first time. In addition, the webinar will illustrate how the findings of the Inventory exercise can be (and have been) applied in selected countries to inform strategic UN planning retreats on nutrition, the development of a UN Nutrition Strategy/Agenda, and ultimately, lead to increased UN coherence on nutrition.
