Abstract:
Although Ethiopia has recorded a steady and
impressive reduction in stunting over the past decade,
levels remain high and stark geographical inequalities
persist. On 15th July 2015, the Government of Ethiopia
made a declaration to end child malnutrition by 2030,
rearming its commitment to nutrition as a foundation
for economic development. Accelerating progress
towards this goal, set out in the Seqota Declaration, will
require coordinated multisectoral eorts to increase
nutrition smart investments in infrastructure and
technology, drive behavior change, and empower
communities to innovate and identify localized solutions
to address malnutrition.
