| dc.description.abstract | In Katsina, child stunting rates stand
at 59.7% – the highest in Nigeria and
well above the national average of 32%
(NNHS 2014).
Nigeria signed up to the Scaling-up
Nutrition (SUN) movement in 2011,
committing itself to tackling its high
rates of child malnutrition. Achieving
this objective requires significant political
commitment and government funding
at both the state and federal levels. It
also requires effective coordination and
implementation of nutrition work, and
civil society and community engagement.
This briefing reviews these aspects of
nutrition-sector governance, which
are supported by the DFID-funded
programme WINNN in Katsina state. | en |
