WHAT IS SUN?W SUN?WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN????????????????????
Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) is a unique
Movement founded on the principle that all
people have a right to food and good nutrition.
It unites people from governments, civil society,
the United Nations, donors, businesses and
researchers in a collective effort to improve
nutrition.
The SUN Movement is led by countries. Scaling
up nutrition relies on national leaders taking
ownership and responsibility for delivering
sustainable solutions to improve nutrition in their
countries. As such, within the SUN Movement,
national leaders are prioritizing efforts to address
malnutrition. Countries are putting the right
policies in place, collaborating with partners to
implement programs with shared nutrition goals,
and mobilizing resources to effectively scale up
nutrition, with a core focus on empowering
women.
With a shared understanding that many factors
impact nutrition and that malnutrition has
multiple causes, wwe all need to work together,
aacross issues aand sectors, to put nutrition into all
ddevelopment eefforts. Each of us has a unique
contribution to make. Together we are achieving
what none of us can do alone.
The causes of malnutrition include several factors
that most people would generally associate with
nutrition such as lack of food, suboptimal caring
and feeding practices and lack of access to health
services, as well as factors that affect the broader
context of life and health.

Each Civil Society Alliance (CSA) comprises a
number of CSO members, with the aim to
amplify the voices of communities affected by
the double burden of malnutrition and focus on
the need for greater accountability to them. CSAs
comprise international and in-country CSOs who
are actively engaged in scaling up nutrition at
country level.

A key objective of the national level push to Scaling
Up Nutrition is to agree on multi-stakeholder plans to
which all nutrition actors can adhere, and with which
the broader SUN movement is committed to aligning
financial and technical support. Leadership at the
national level ensures that priorities and programs
are designed and implemented in a way that meets the
needs of various regions and populations within the
country and enables the scale up of sustainable efforts.
Key areas Civil Society Alliances in SUN
countries can focus on
As SUN CSAs gradually embark on these efforts
building the capacity of the SUN CSA to enable
these activities should be a priority. The activities
SUN CSAs will decide to take forward in their
different stages of preparedness will depend and
be adapted to the national context.
CSOs role in rolling out SUN to provinces and
communities so as to reach more women and
children & monitoring / tracking progress
• Developing a common messaging strategy to
unite SUN CSA voices and feed into the below
efforts
• Advocacy to attract and maintain high-level
political support for nutrition
• Advocacy for integrating nutrition across
sectors of government
• Ensuring there is a national action plan that is
costed and that national budget is clearly
allocated for nutrition-specific and nutrition-
sensitive efforts
• CSOs role in terms of advocacy for and
tracking of finances and investments in nutrition
– this would include efforts around advocacy for
budget transparency
• Encouraging nutrition-sensitive development in
agriculture, education, social protection, WASH,
etc.
• Role in contributing to ensuring commitments
from the Nutrition for Growth compact are
distilled, clarified and have a clear process for
ensuring commitments are made.
• The importance of contributing to monitoring
progress and demonstrating results.
