Ghana Nutrition Improvement Project (GNIP) Establishing sustainable nutrition intervention by “Market base approach with SBCC” through genuinely synergetic PPP
The document discusses the Ghana Nutrition Improvement Project (GNIP) led by The Ajinomoto Foundation (TAF) to address stunting in Ghana.
1. GNIP aims to establish sustainable nutrition interventions through a "market-based approach with social and behavior change communication" (SBCC) and public-private partnerships (PPP).
2. A key part of the project is "KOKO Plus", a fortified complementary food supplement developed to improve the nutritional value of locally produced koko (corn porridge). KOKO Plus utilizes local food chains and costs $0.10 per sachet daily.
3. Through PPPs and SBCC, the project works

We explored the empirical relationship between bio-fortification and child nutrition in Uganda. The research expanded the traditional approach used to address child nutrition by including in the model a categorical dependent variable for a household growing bio-fortified crop varieties. We used three waves of panel data from the Feed. The Future Innovation Lab for Nutrition, collected from 6 districts in Uganda. We performed univariate analysis and also estimated a panel logistic regression model to study the association between child stunting and production of bio-fortified crop varieties among smallholder farmers in Uganda. The results confirmed a very strong association between production of bio-fortified crop varieties and child stunting among children aged 0-59 months of age. The strength of the relationship, however was insensitive to the number of bio-fortified crop varieties grown by a particular household. Other important covariates of child stunting were male gender, 24-59 months age bracket, child birth weight, dietary diversity, education of caregiver, antenatal care, household size, access to improved water and household livestock score. These results can be used to vindicate current government policy of promoting production of bio-fortified crop varieties and underscore the need for intensified efforts to promote bio-fortification as a complementary means of addressing long-term child malnutrition in Uganda.
The Ghana School Feeding Programme (GSFP) is the local version of the Home-Grown School
Feeding Programme (HGSP) that has a mandate to give one hot meal a day to school children in public schools
from kindergarten through to primary six. Launched in 2005 the programme has the goal of contributing to
poverty reduction and increased food security in Ghana. One of the key objectives of the programme is to
boost domestic food production by purchasing locally produce foodstuffs and providing a sustainable market
for local food producers in the community. To analyse the effect of the programme on rice production in four
districts in the Northern Region of Ghana, a formal cross section survey of 80 small holder rice farmers and 40
GSFP caterers, across the four districts was conducted. The translog production function was applied to
analyse the programme‟s effect on rice output while the probit model was used to analyse the factors
influencing rice farmers to supply to the programme on one hand and the factors affecting caterer‟s decision to
purchase rice from the rice farmers on the other. The results from the analysis of the production function shows
that the coefficients of farm labour, farm size, and fertilizer application were highly significant in increasing
farmers‟ output. While access to the GSFP had a positive influence on output it was statistically insignificant.
The results also show that majority of GSFP caterers buy rice from local millers and the market. The factors
which had significant influence on the caterers to buy from the rice farmer include availability of storage
facility, farmer‟s willingness to process the paddy rice and sell on credit, price of milled rice, and proximity of
rice farmers. The major conclusion of the study is that the effect of the programme on rice farmers output was
not significant. This was attributed to poor linkage between the farmers and the programme even though about
100 percent of rice consumed by the GSFP is produced locally
The government-initiated mid day meal program is a hot fresh meal providing a scheme to children government schools, government-aided schools, localized schools, etc.

A project proposal for East Timor on improving health and nutrition for women...Kazuko Yoshizawa
The presentation outlines a project proposal aimed at capacity building in health and nutrition for Timor-Leste, developed through extensive consultation with the Ministry of Health, development partners, NGOs, and civil society. The primary objective of the project is to enhance the nutritional status of women and children who are particularly vulnerable to malnutrition. The project proposal comprises four key areas that address the capacity gaps identified through stakeholder consultations and documented in published reports and strategies. By providing additional support and interventions, as well as strengthening existing structures, the proposed interventions would help to improve the nutrition status of children and women. The proposal further suggests that the capacity of Integrated Community Health Services (Sisca) could be enhanced to improve rural health services. Such improvements would help to address the existing disparities in health outcomes between rural and urban areas in Timor-Leste. Through the proposed interventions, the project aims to support the overall development of the health and nutrition sector in Timor-Leste. By addressing the identified capacity gaps, the project would help to build sustainable systems that can deliver effective health and nutrition services to the population.
In conclusion, the presentation explains a comprehensive project proposal that aims to improve the nutritional status of vulnerable women and children in Timor-Leste. The proposal is based on extensive consultation with stakeholders and would address capacity gaps identified through published reports and strategies. Through this project, it would be possible to enhance rural health services by strengthening the capacity of Integrated Community Health Services (Sisca) and supporting existing structures. Ultimately, the proposed interventions would contribute to the development of sustainable health and nutrition systems in Timor-Leste.
