The document summarizes Afghanistan's nutrition policy and recommendations. It notes that Afghanistan has suffered from war and poverty for decades, resulting in widespread undernutrition among women and children. The public nutrition policy prioritizes promoting child and maternal nutrition through various interventions like nutrition education, infant feeding programs, and treating acute malnutrition. Key issues include high rates of micronutrient deficiencies like iron, iodine and vitamin A among children. Poverty is widespread, with 40% of Afghans living on less than $0.45 per day. Recommendations include increasing nutrition awareness, promoting appropriate infant feeding practices, reducing micronutrient deficiencies, strengthening treatment of acute malnutrition, and building national nutrition monitoring and response capacity.
