Annual report 2023
January to December 2023
- In 2022, the nutrition cluster conducted National SMART surveys that provided up-to-date information on malnutrition at the provincial level. A similar plan was put in place for 2023, but implementation challenges made it infeasible.
- In 2023 there were funding gaps in some nutrition interventions and delay in FTS updates.
- The authorities' bureaucratic processes in some instances have cost delay in implementations.
- The uncertainties and restrictions impeded emergency nutrition programming by various ways, including population displacements, destabilization of the health system, denial of female aid worker rights, weak banking system and related financial sector problems, and in-country constrained road and air transport and prolonged customs and border clearances of supplies.
- Rationalizations of Mobile Health and Nutrition Team (MHNT)
- The occurrence of natural disasters (earthquake, floods, severe winter and drought) requiring emergency response to the already fragile populations in dire humanitarian needs has led strain on the available resources.
