Scaling Up Nutrition Movement

Scaling Up Nutrition Movement Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) is a country-led movement advancing the SDGs through

When children are properly nourished
they can grow up to be healthy and productive. When children are healthy and productive
their families, communities, and countries
become stronger. That’s why 65 countries around the world have
committed to making nutrition a priority. And why global partners are working
together to support the efforts of
the countries. Together, we can achieve
what no single effort could,
and make the world a healthier,
stronger place for us all.

In , hunger is deepening fast.

Today, 7.8 million people face high acute food insecurity, while 2.2 million children are suffering acute malnutrition.

Right now, nutrition support is more urgent than ever, and it takes everyone working together.

South Sudan’s homegrown school feeding programme is helping children access meals while supporting local farmers and community livelihoods at the same time.

In times of crisis, coordinated action matters even more.

Sometimes the most powerful food solution is also the simplest 🤱.

In El Salvador:
👶 8 in 10 newborns begin breastfeeding within the first hour of life
🍼 Exclusive breastfeeding has reached 66.8% for babies under 6 months
🏢 400 lactation rooms have opened in workplaces and public spaces

These results didn’t happen by chance. They came from national action, community support and policies that help mothers breastfeed successfully.

Because supporting breastfeeding means supporting families and futures 💛

Maternal, infant, and young child nutrition is a top priority for the SUN Movement's 67 member countries and four Indian states, home to the majority of the world's most nutritionally vulnerable people.

As world leaders convene for , SUN countries are proving that investing in maternal, infant, and young child nutrition delivers transformational returns, up to $23 for every $1 spent.

With 93 million stunted children in our 67 member countries, we can't afford to wait.

Let's together.

Community-led nutrition programmes work because they're built on trust, local knowledge, and shared commitment to healthier futures.

When communities have support from governments, the SUN Movement, and partner organisations, they have the tools they need to harness the power of nutrition and transform their lives and livelihoods 🤝 .

La anemia infantil afecta al 43,7% de los niños de 6 a 36 meses en el Perú.
Pero en comunidades de Pasco, el cambio ya está en marcha.

Gracias a la acción liderada por la sociedad civil Prisma ONG, la anemia en las comunidades intervenidas se redujo de 74% a 36%.

¿Qué marcó la diferencia?
🔸 Mujeres liderando la respuesta
🔸Acompañamiento cercano en las comunidades

When a child is vaccinated, it's an unmissable opportunity to check for malnutrition, provide supplements, and teach their family about good nutrition. All in one visit.

Immunisation already reaches 90% of children during the critical first 1,000 days of life, making it the ideal platform for integrated nutrition support.

And the case for investment is clear: every dollar invested in nutrition delivers a return of US$23.

This , we're celebrating the power of doing more with every healthcare visit.

Despite its rich agricultural potential, food insecurity remains a persistent challenge in parts of Costa Rica – reaching well above the national average in some communities.

Through the "Empowering Communities in Sustainable Agri-food Systems" initiative, women, youth, and indigenous peoples in Guatuso and Buenos Aires are at the heart of the solution - drawing on local knowledge and cultural practices to strengthen food production, improve diets and stimulate local economies.

Supported by the SUN Movement, UN agencies, and national entities, these community-led solutions are now being integrated into national plans and budgets – with the potential to help other territories across Costa Rica shape their own development and promote healthy nutrition.
