The purpose of the survey was to assess the household coverage and potential contribution of fortified foods to the micronutrient intake among women of reproductive age in Uganda.
This report presents the results of that assessment and proposes a Consumption Monitoring and Surveillance Framework consisting of the various processes, phases, components, and domains that provide an enabling environment for this to happen.
The study analysed multiple program design options covering operational complexities, premix supply, the roles of private and public sectors, branding, marketing and advocacy, cost to consumer and quality assurance. This report presents the results of the various options evaluation and key conclusions drawn from the assessment.
This report analyses the cost of fortification of wheat flour in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Kazakhstan, using both Afghan and regional harmonized standards; assesses its impact on market prices of wheat flour for a sustainable fortification program in Afghanistan; and makes recommendations on policy and pricing strategies for domestic and cross-border trade.
This report examines previous large-scale fortification efforts in the Central Asian Republics to ascertain the lessons that can be learned from their successes and failures. The results of the report can help new initiatives ensure better coverage of fortified foods throughout the region including Afghanistan.
This report underlines that in order to move the food fortification agenda forward in Afghanistan and create a supportive environment for action, stakeholders need to understand the impact of fortification, both in terms of health benefits and economic costs.
