The ambitions contained in the Malabo Declaration, the African Union’s Agenda 2063, and global development goals recognize the size and complexity of the nutrition challenges ahead. The seven-country study detailed in this report takes a systematic country approach to identify where progress in nutrition has been achieved, analyzing which policy decisions were taken to substantially reduce malnutrition levels and to promote healthier and more diverse diets. The report draws lessons for other countries to replicate such successes and identifies policies and practices for scale-up that could have significant impact on nutrition, child survival, and development in Africa.
