UN Decade of Action on Nutrition 2016-2025: Action Networks

Overview

Action Networks are informal coalitions of countries focusing on a specific nutrition related action area to foster policy dialogue and facilitate and enhance local action. Led and coordinated by one country or several volunteering countries, these Action Networks allow countries to exchange good practices, illustrate successes and challenges and provide mutual support to accelerate progress in specific areas, with the final objective of improving food systems, diets and nutrition for all through the establishment of policies and legislation. In doing so, Action Networks help countries implement their commitments and the Nutrition Decade’s Work Programme.
