Social return on investment home based nutritional counselling intervention i...Transform Nutrition
This document summarizes the results of a study on the social return on investment (SROI) of a nutrition intervention program in urban poor settings in Nairobi, Kenya. The study found that the intervention led to many benefits, including improved breastfeeding practices, increased male involvement in childcare, and reduced illness in children. It also identified some negative outcomes, such as women foregoing work to breastfeed. The SROI ratio calculated was $71 for every $1 invested, indicating high social value. While the intervention showed success, future programs should address potential negative impacts and support combining work with breastfeeding.

The document summarizes a workshop on strengthening functional capacities within the SUN Movement to scale up nutrition. It discusses the three dimensions of multi-stakeholder engagement, multi-sectoral coordination, and multi-level alignment that are important for capacity development. Some of the greatest challenges identified are effective coordination arrangements, building trust and leadership, establishing transparent accountability mechanisms, and knowledge sharing. The workshop aims to understand what is working well, identify priority needs and resource gaps, and harness discussions to support further progress on functional capacities through a community of practice.
Knowledge sharing is important but not always straightforward as there are many types of knowledge and information to consider sharing, such as reports, strategies, personal experiences, and more. When determining what knowledge to share, it is important to think about what information is available, who needs it, how it can best be shared either formally or informally, and why all information is not always disseminated, as certain information may be less likely to be shared than others. Organizations also differ in their approaches to knowledge sharing.

Uganda has made progress in strengthening multi-sectoral coordination for nutrition through implementing its Nutrition Action Plan. Key accomplishments include orienting district-level coordination committees, developing nutrition strategies and guidelines, and integrating nutrition into development plans. Regular coordination occurs across sectors led by the Prime Minister's Office. However, challenges remain around sustaining coordination mechanisms long-term given resource needs, maintaining functional capacities as personnel change, documenting evidence of impact, and improving transparency among partners.

This document summarizes key points from a paper on creating enabling environments to reduce malnutrition. It discusses three vital factors: 1) Framing, generating, and communicating knowledge and evidence through narratives, advocacy, and research on what works and impact. 2) Political economy of actors, ideas, and interests through multisectoral coordination, accountability, civil society engagement, and private sector contributions. 3) Capacity and financing through leadership, systemic capacity, understanding financing needs, prioritization, and scaling up programs. Case studies highlight the need for evidence, coordination across sectors, capacity building, and leveraging multiple resources to turn commitment into impact on nutrition. Leadership is important at all levels to create momentum and scale up effective actions.

This document summarizes Zambia's efforts to scale up nutrition through its multisectoral platform and SUN networks. It notes that Zambia joined SUN in 2010 and formed its multisectoral platform in 2012, which is housed under the National Food and Nutrition Commission and includes representatives from five key ministries and other stakeholders. All six of Zambia's SUN networks - government partners, UN, civil society, donors, business, and technical community - are reported to be fully or partially active. The document outlines accomplishments around networks collaborating according to government priorities. It also discusses challenges around institutionalizing coordination structures and some ministries implementing "in silos," but notes the food and nutrition act is being revised and
The document discusses UNDP's Area Based Development Programme in Uzbekistan. The programme aims to support local development planning, community self-help schemes, and income generation in rural communities. It focuses on vulnerable groups and improving access to essential social services. The programme works towards economic well-being, sustainable development, and effective local governance outcomes. It develops prototypes for community development, infrastructure rehabilitation, micro-enterprises, and more. The programme collaborates with other UNDP initiatives and seeks to attract additional funding and scale up successful approaches.
The document discusses key takeaways from the ICHC Conference in March 2017 regarding social and behavior change communication (SBCC) and community systems. It notes that capacity can be built through standardized education for community health workers and families via digital libraries. It also emphasizes using SBCC to foster trust and a sense of agency rather than didactic education approaches. Community-based approaches should be used in planning and social accountability to address inequities. However, many community engagement tools have not been mainstreamed or scaled up within national health systems. Next steps proposed include developing a global learning agenda on community health systems strengthening, supporting country plans and commitments, and building an evidence base for SBCC including community approaches.

This document summarizes a Client-Partner Dialogue held in Colombo, Sri Lanka from November 1-6, 2015 to discuss the Collaborative Leadership for Development (CL4D) approach. 20 participants from 14 countries represented government clients, coaches/facilitators, training institutes, and World Bank task teams. The Dialogue introduced participants to CL4D concepts and tools through discussion and hands-on exercises. CL4D helps teams address "adaptive challenges" - complex, systemic problems requiring changes to social norms and behaviors. In contrast to technical problems, adaptive challenges require experimentation and risk-taking. CL4D promotes collaborative leadership relying on informal authority rather than formal positions to mobilize stakeholders and accelerate development

This document summarizes a case study on the leadership transition of the Italian Red Cross from 2005-2014 as it reformed from a publicly funded organization to an independent voluntary association. The summary is:
1) The Italian Red Cross underwent significant reforms between 2005-2014 to transition from a publicly funded entity to an independent voluntary association, requiring strong formal and informal leadership.
2) The reform process was made possible by an existing grassroots movement within the organization pushing for change, and leaders took more directive approaches during the crisis but recognized the need to shift back to more consultative leadership.
3) Credible leaders at all levels, including local branches, will be important for the long-term organizational impact and sustainability

This document summarizes a research project on maximizing the transformative potential of intercultural immersion trips organized by International Partners in Mission (IPM). The author conducted surveys and focus groups with IPM staff and stakeholders to identify recommendations. These recommendations include encouraging pre-trip communication, allowing discomfort, participating in community activities, and reflecting daily during trips. They also suggest using assessments like the Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity to promote double-loop learning. For triple-loop learning, the author recommends using interfaith tools and questioning to support attuning to higher perspectives. The implications are applying recommendations to IPM trip design, developing facilitator handbooks, and continually improving using assessments while leveraging diversity within the organization.
The document provides a summary of a leadership development program called the Senior Leadership Development Program (SLDP) delivered by I Train Consultants for World Vision Bangladesh.
The key points covered are:
- The program included assessments, workshops, coaching and projects to develop leadership skills of 30 mid to senior level professionals over 1 year.
- Feedback from participants was overwhelmingly positive, averaging 94%.
- Participants implemented projects focusing on areas like improving processes, upskilling teams, and increasing community engagement. Many projects were successfully completed.
- Facilitators observed significant development and a willingness to learn and implement skills among participants. They recommend more focused sessions for future programs.
COVID-19 has seriously tested the resiliency and sustainability of organisations, especially those in the nonprofit sector. The pandemic has further exacerbated their already precarious state and many Civil society organisations (CSOs) are under immense pressure to operate, survive, and thrive, while maintaining independence and continually generating funds to pursue planned operations and command strong recognition and influence.
They have been forced to adapt or to abandon the game, to face adversity through innovation or to fail while trying. Organisational and individual preparedness to manage change was tested also and many had to unlearn and relearn, to find new ways of working and developing resilience amidst the pandemic.
Since financing is a key pillar of organizational sustainability, I was invited to strengthen participants understanding, knowledge and practice in mobilizing resources more creatively. Aside the traditional channel of funding, there are 12 proven models of mobilizing resources for any civil society organisations in Africa, no matter its size, staff or strength.
The document provides an overview of the 8 steps to building an effective coalition: 1) analyze program objectives and determine if a coalition is needed; 2) recruit the right members; 3) devise preliminary objectives and activities; 4) convene the coalition; 5) anticipate necessary resources; 6) develop a successful structure; 7) maintain coalition vitality; and 8) improve through evaluation. It discusses why coalitions are important for accomplishing goals, bringing diverse perspectives together, and increasing advocacy power. The document also covers factors to consider like identifying the right partners, setting objectives, allocating resources, and evaluating effectiveness.

Odisha's progress in nutrition: multiple drivers of changeTransform Nutrition
Odisha has made progress in reducing mortality and improving nutrition outcomes through scaling up key health and nutrition interventions. A timeline analysis found coverage of interventions like antenatal care, institutional delivery, immunization, and ICDS supplementary nutrition increased from the 1990s onwards. This was enabled by Odisha's clear state vision for reducing mortality and malnutrition, investment in frontline workers and platforms like ICDS and health, stable bureaucracy, and support from development partners and civil society. However, challenges remain like high stunting levels, inter-district variability, and need to strengthen coordination across sectors influencing nutrition determinants.

1) The Transfer Modality Research Initiative (TMRI) in Bangladesh evaluated the impacts of different social protection interventions on household welfare and child nutrition.
2) The study found that cash transfers, food transfers, and combinations of the two all improved household consumption and food security. However, adding nutrition behavior change communication (BCC) led to significantly larger improvements.
3) In northern Bangladesh, cash transfers combined with BCC reduced child stunting rates by 7.3 percentage points over two years, suggesting social protection needs to address both income and nutrition knowledge to impact child nutrition outcomes.

Translating leadership challenges into action by Namukolo Covic
1. Translating understanding of leadership
challenges into action: personal
experiences
8 June 2017, Nairobi
Namukolo Covic,
Senior Research Coordinator, IFPRI
2. Inspiration fromTN research brief on leadership
…….explored how leaders understand the
systems which shape and constrain their
action; and translate this understanding
into action……
3. Observations from personal experiences
• Coordination and collaboration recognized as important but
the quality of engagement on both is a challenge.
• The challenges on quality of engagement limit benefits from
coordination and collaboration under different settings.
• We hold hands but remain strongly anchored in our silos.
• Personal experiences have been shaped by own stakeholder
interactions in Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa and Ethiopia,
wider Africa through ANLP involvement.
• Recent IFNA meeting: 10 African countries without exception
bemoaned such challenges were holding back progress despite
the National Nutrition Coordinating Bodies in place.
4. Zambia multisectoral consultation forum on
Food and Nutrition 2011
• A key decision making event leading to consolidating the
structure of Zambia’s involvement in the SUN movement
• Challenges faced relevant today in different settings
• Relevant to illustrating the inspiration stated earlier:
…… there is need to understand aspects which shape
and constrain action or processes; and translate this
understanding into action to direct progress……
…….explored how leaders understand the systems which shape
and constrain their action; and translate this understanding into
action……
5. What happened?
• Great opportunity for consultation: all relevant
stakeholders there; including national president
• Presented UNICEF conceptual framework structured
to generate a common vision among all stakeholders
present
• Leadership capacity of the targeted SUN focal
institution was challenged by all without exception
• As the 2-day meeting progressed it became clear that
meeting the objectives of this meeting would be a
challenge
6. How was the meeting progressed?
• Tasked with doing something if the meeting went off path
• Periodic interventions along the way to redirect the meeting
• Get stakeholders who did not feel a part of the process on
board (private sector and civil society)
• The Director of Health expressed concern
• 3 risky decisions taken to redirect
• The risks paid dividend
• Experience led to a Leadership development programme by
the ANLP the focal institution (2013-2015)
