Nutrition in Global Health – An Evidence Update

Nutrition in Global Health – An Evidence Update

Thematic Support Unit

  • År: 2022

  • Publikationstyp: Tematisk analys

Sammanfattning

This evidence brief presents recent evidence and research in global health. The topic of this
edition is Nutrition, which addresses all matters related to both over- and undernutrition globally. While nutrition is specifically addressed in only one of the 17 SDGs (number 2: Zero Hunger), ensuring an adequate nutrition is recognized as a cross-cutting issue that affects, as well as is influenced by, most of the SDGs.
At the current rate of progress, global nutrition targets will not be achieved by 2025 in most countries. However, the global commitment to achieve change has never been greater. This newsletter showcases five recent publications.
You may further explore and understand the complex problem of malnutrition through this
free open-access educational resource provided through the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

Evaluation of the APHRC-funded project “Challenging the Politics of Social Exclusion” (CPSE)

Tematik: Hälsa

Purpose and use
This evaluation of Phase One of the Challenging the Politics of Social Exclusion (CPSE) project (2018–2024) assesses achievements, challenges, and lessons to inform future research-to-policy programming. It supports design and implementation of CPSE 2.0 (2024–2027), focusing on relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability. Primary users include APHRC leadership, CPSE staff, and Sida Africa region staff.

Conclusion
CPSE 1.0 advanced policy commitments on SRHR and social inclusion, strengthened partnerships, and produced relevant research. However, gaps in monitoring, planning, and stakeholder engagement limit scalability. The project’s MEL system and knowledge management lacked structure, and the absence of a medium-term strategy hindered sustainability.

Recommendation
CPSE 2.0 should adopt a medium-term strategic plan, clarify roles across its three pillars, and improve MEL systems. A Partner Map and typology should guide collaboration, while systems thinking and joint programming can enhance impact. Innovative financing and operational engagement with decisionmakers
are key to sustaining progress.

Durable Solutions for Internally Displaced Persons

Tematik: Hälsa Jämställdhet

The number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) has risen dramatically in recent years, exceeding 83 million by the end of 2024.1 Internal displacement is driven mainly by new and escalating conflicts but also by climate disasters.

This brief highlights the need for joined-up humanitarian, development and peace-building efforts,a so called “HDP nexus approach” to strengthening the work to find solutions to internal displacement. Sida supports a number of development interventions aimed at providing solutions for IDPs and affected communities, complementing humanitarian assistance.
