The Seqota Declaration , Multi –Stakeholders Coordination and Partnership Management (MSCPM)

Abstract

The Seqota Declaration is the Government of Ethiopia’s commitment to end child under-nutrition by 2030. It reaffirms the government’s commitment to nutrition as a foundation for economic development with a focus on human capital development. It is implemented under the National Nutrition Program II (NNP II). This 15-years program focuses on delivering high-impact interventions in 33 Woredas of the Tekeze river basin in Amhara and Tigray Regional states. The National Nutrition Plan II and Seqota Declaration strategy have prioritized nutrition specific and nutrition sensitive interventions to contribute to the reduction of stunting. Such strategic objectives and interventions can only be implemented through multi-stakeholder partnership and coordination in SD Woredas.
