6 Priorities from Consultatio n Process (Brief description of activities) B. Priority Interventions Throughout the consultation process, nutrition has emerged as a key priority for Bangladesh, especially with reference to maternal and young children’s nutrition improvement. In order to strengthen nutrition interventions and orient nutrition policies, key food and nutrition information is required. There is currently a lack of available, up-to-date nutrition-related data. The national nutrition survey was conducted every 10 years since the early 1960’s, but the last available data is from 1995/1996. Updating and establishing national Food Consumption Table (FCT) is required to : serve as a nutrition planning tool in agriculture, food, health and trade sectors; agriculture and nutrition research, nutritional assessment, formulation of national and institutional diets, nutrition education and training, epidemiological research on relationship between diet and disease, nutrition labelling, food standards and safety regulations . The key prioritized interventions are as follows: Undertake comprehensive national survey of food consumption & update food composition An updated and comprehensive food consumption survey is essential to inform programme implementers on actual food and nutrient intakes, track dietary changes, identify nutritional gaps and set food production and consumption targets, based on nutrition improvement goals and indicators. In the context of the recent introduction of high yielding crop and non crop varieties (HYVs), an update of food composition tables will be key to orient research, extension and production of improved seeds. An updated FCT is required for setting food and nutrition standards specific to Bangladesh, as well as recommended dietary allowances for all nutrients as well as bioactive compounds essential for good health. Undertake study of dietary diversification and supplementation needs and develop advocacy, awareness and educational materials to facilitate behavioural change in eating habits and practices This activity will be key in establishing associations between dietary diversity and nutrient adequacy, and between dietary diversity and household food security and strengthening the evidence base of nutrition interventions especially for the vulnerable groups in Bangladesh. Strengthen national capacities in surveying and analysis to facilitate evidence based decisions Key organizations involved in strengthening nutrition in Bangladesh – the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and the Institute of Nutrition and Food Science (INFS), Dhaka University– have qualified personnel and good laboratories, however, human and physical capacities still require strengthening. In addition, support in order to undertake field surveys is needed. The prioritized activities are: Update food consumption survey, food composition tables (H). Work out updated nutrition messages and build capacities (H). Updated Bangladesh Country Investment Plan: A Road Map Towards investing in Agriculture, Food Security and Nutrition 2 June 2011 104
8 Main national implementation institutions 9 Main international DPs 10 Main implementation challenges C. Implementation Features The national implementation institutes are Food Division, BBS, DAE, DLS, DOF, DGHS, BANHRDB, BARC, BARI, BRRI, BNNC, INFS, BAU. Capacity strengthening on policy and research on nutrition needs involvement of agriculture, food, health and other relevant sector’s support. The INFS has the experience and capacity on conducting nutrition surveys including food consumption surveys and also developing FCT. Besides, ICDDR,B, BNNC, IPHN, and HKI also have experience in conducting different nutrition surveys and surveillance programmes. FPMU of Food Division, MoFDM, DAE and BANHRDB of Ministry of Agriculture, NNP, BNNC and IPHN of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and Ministry of Women and Children Affairs will be engaged in dietary diversification programmes given their involvement in this area. EU, FAO and UNFPA are the DPs who provide financial support and technical assistance to nutritional surveillance and technical assistance for data processing and analysis of demographic and agricultural census data. Higher investments are needed to further strengthen the programme. The implementation challenges are to set effective coordination among different ministries and line agencies. Note: The activities prioritized as Top (T), high (H) medium (M) and low (L).
