Project Description
The Catalyzing Strengthened policy Action for Healthy Diets and resiliencE (CASCADE) project is strengthening Mozambique’s food and nutrition security by fostering collaboration among government, the private sector, and communities. CASCADE frames its activities in Mozambique’s national Food and Nutrition Security Strategy 2024-2030 and the National Strategy of Food Fortification 2023-2027. The project focuses on reinforcing government capacity for policy coordination, fostering collaboration between the public and private sectors to strengthen nutrition-related businesses, and empower community-based organizations to advocate for better nutrition and agricultural services.
These efforts are complemented by ensuring that nutritional outcomes are considered within agriculture and health interventions. Crosscutting to its work, CASCADE is supporting both policymakers to make evidence-based decisions and stakeholders working across Mozambique’s food and nutrition security landscape.
