Description
South African faces a complex food and nutrition security (FNS) challenge due to historical, socio-economic and environmental factors. Many lack access to nutritious food, resulting in high levels of malnutrition. To address this, the National Food and Nutrition Security Plan (NFNSP) 2018-2023 aims to address malnutrition through seven objectives, including aligning policies and implementing programmes, expanding social protection measures and encouraging informed food decisions.
The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the plan's implementation, progress towards predefined targets, assess factors that facilitate or inhabit its implementation, examine the plan's institutional arrangements, and provide recommendations for refinement and enhancement.
