In March 2016, USAID's Bureau for Food Security and Bureau for Global Health, along with the FANTA III project, hosted the East and Southern Africa MSN-GLEE (Multi-sectoral Nutrition Strategy Global Learning & Evidence Exchange) conference in Dar es Salam, Tanzania. Staff from the USAID Bureau for Food Security, Bureau for Global Health, USAID Missions in East and Southern Africa, implementing partners, and host country governments shared their experiences and research, enabling widespread engagement across the countries and improving understanding of emerging concepts.
Experts in agriculture, economic growth, WASH, nutrition, and health programs gave presentations and led interactive sessions on a range of topics designed to strengthen country-led efforts to improve nutrition. USAID’s Multi-sectoral Nutrition Strategy and accompanying technical guidance briefs formed the basis for an exciting agenda comprised of interactive sessions designed to help participants identify places where multi-sectoral nutrition programming approach can be strengthened.
