dc.description.abstract | Malawi is one of the most committed countries in Africa to improving nutrition, yet it still has
one of the highest rates of malnutrition in the region and is struggling to turn commitments
into action at scale. The advocacy component of the Afikepo project strengthened capacity
of national and district government and Civil Society Organisation (CSO) representatives to
plan, budget and advocate for scaling up nutrition commitments at national and in 10 districts.
These actions improved awareness, coordination and commitment to prioritise nutrition
across sectors, within government, and CSOs and a wide range of actors at national and
district level, which in turn improved governance and accountability. However, these actions
did not have a substantial effect on domestic funding allocations, which are still heavily reliant
on external donors. This brief summarises lessons learned and recommendations from the
various advocacy and capacity building efforts over the past four years. | en |
