Executive SummaryThe South Asia Food and Nutrition Security Initiative (SAFANSI) was created in 2010 to foster actions that lead to measurable improvements in food and nutrition security (FNS). Through flexible small grants, the program aims to address the South Asian Enigma — chronic malnutrition and undernutrition that remain stubbornly intractable despite high economic growth. Conceived at a time when FNS work was evolving from narrowly focused interventions by ministries of health to a multisectoral approach with different stakeholders, SAFANSI’s innovative work cuts across many sectors. These sectors include agriculture, rural development, health, social safety nets, water supply and sanitation, public administration, education, communications, and regional integration. Administered by the World Bank, SAFANSI is a trust fund financed program that has received funding and support from the European Commission, the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development, and Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.

This report assesses SAFANSI activities over the past eight years to understand the program’s effectiveness and performance in addressing FNS in South Asia. Based on a comprehensive review of relevant documents and interviews with stakeholders and program team leaders, the report identifies major achievements and lessons learned from SAFANSI-supported activities. The report also proposes a select number of focus areas for support under a potential SAFANSI follow-on nutrition program.

During two phases, SAFANSI has allocated $23.8 million to finance 93 activities 1 addressing undernutrition in South Asia. India, Nepal, and Bangladesh have been the primary recipients of SAFANSI grants. Regional activities supporting two or more countries constituted about 20 percent of SAFANSI’s work.

SAFANSI activities have targeted the poor and vulnerable, especially women and children, in disadvantaged areas of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. The program has informed national nutrition policies in Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bhutan. Other SAFANSI activities have ranged from testing better ways to deliver nutrition services in villages to creating datasets about the behavior of recipient households. SAFANSI is working with the private sector to support production of 2.7 million metric tons of A- and D-fortified milk, consumed by 55 million people across 16 states in India.

Main findings:

• With financial support from SAFANSI, South Asian countries now have a deep portfolio of practical knowledge, policy advice, evidence-based analysis, and enhanced capacity to improve nutrition. SAFANSI has contributed to mainstreaming FNS as a regional priority in the Bank’s South Asia work.

• SAFANSI has directly influenced nutrition policy by sharing data, pilot project results, and analytical studies with national governments throughout the region. The analytical work has informed a total of 11 national government policies in South Asia, including a half-dozen national nutrition action plans developed by Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka (and subsequent five-year plans for Bangladesh and Bhutan). In Pakistan, SAFANSI supported the development of nutrition policy guidance notes in four provinces, which informed World Bank-financed health sector projects in these provinces.2

1 The technical analysis in this report is based on the review of 78 activities totaling $20.8 million approved before May 31, 2018. An additional 15 activities were approved after May 31, 2018.

2 The focus of this report is on SAFANSI’s contribution to the development of nutrition policies and action plans at the national and sub-national level in the South Asia region. However, the authors recognize that the development, adoption and implementation of these policies and action plans is attributable first and foremost to a government commitment to food and nutrition security (FNS), as well as the collective support of the FNS agenda by the larger development community active in the region.

• SAFANSI has, with $20.8 million, informed, contributed to, or leveraged, through knowledge products and innovative pilot programs, 32 Bank-financed projects worth $6.3 billion3 with more than 35.6 million target beneficiaries. One of the largest SAFANSI-financed activities is the Social Observatory, a monitoring mechanism in India that collected data from households about village food prices and availability. The data were used to improve the nutrition design of four Bank-financed rural livelihood development projects in India totaling $1.45 billion. Social Observatory tools have also been adopted by several governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

• SAFANSI research, data, and knowledge exchange strengthened a multisectoral approach to nutrition interventions at the national, provincial, and community levels. SAFANSI has facilitated multisectoral collaboration among provincial government departments in Pakistan and multisectoral delivery of nutrition services in villages in Bangladesh, India, and Sri Lanka.

Key lessons learned include:

• Historically, collaboration among South Asian countries has been limited. Through regional projects, knowledge sharing events, and innovative interventions, SAFANSI has facilitated dialogue and learning. Despite these gains, regional cooperation remains a challenge. A follow-on FNS program would be an opportunity for further collaboration, learning, and exchange among countries to tackle cross-border issues, common standards, trade, and other shared FNS-related challenges.

• Although the overall funding available through SAFANSI was small, funding was flexible and catalytic. The well-targeted use of limited resources has had a significant impact driving the FNS agenda in South Asia and developing a comprehensive body of research, data, and knowledge. However, the financing available was insufficient to support recipient-executed activities, which had originally been envisaged.

• The SAFANSI governance structure is simple and adequate for the size of the program. Fund allocation could be made more strategic by aligning the process with the annual World Bank work program planning cycle.

• Housing the SAFANSI Secretariat in the Bank’s Agriculture Global Practice contributed to the breakdown of silos and provided funding for nutrition in the agriculture space in South Asia.

• The relatively short implementation timeframe for the two phases of SAFANSI limited the types of interventions that could be supported and the results that could be measured.

A potential third phase of SAFANSI would build on the program’s data, knowledge products, service delivery models, and the regional FNS portfolio to support unfinished strategic priorities. It could also address six evolving priorities that demand attention: (1) nutrition-sensitive agriculture, (2) private sector in FNS, (3) child undernutrition, (4) gender and nutrition, (5) urban malnutrition, and (6) climate change.

3 The amount represents the aggregation of the total costs of the Bank-financed projects that SAFANSI contributed to or leveraged through grants approved before May 31, 2018. The amount is not limited to FNS activities or components only. Sectors supported by these Bank projects include agriculture, health, social protection, and water and sanitation.

1. IntroductionSouth Asia has the highest rate of undernutrition4 in the world. About 40 percent of the world’s stunted children — defined as those who are too short for their age — live in the region. While most stunted children are from poor families, data shows that stunting does not disappear with income growth in some countries. The South Asia Food and Nutrition Security Initiative (SAFANSI) seeks to understand why widespread and high levels of undernutrition persist despite sustained rapid economic growth and agricultural productivity gains in the region.

SAFANSI was created as a multi-donor program implemented in two consecutive phases. The objective of SAFANSI Phase I in 2010-15 (SAFANSI I) was to increase the commitment of government and development partners to more effective and integrated FNS actions in South Asia. SAFANSI Phase II in 2015-19 (SAFANSI II) built on the successes and lessons learned of the first phase to improve FNS for individuals and communities through a stronger commitment and increased capacity for more integrated FNS actions across the region. Although the two phases supported the same overall objectives and priorities, they were funded through separate multi-donor Trust Funds with distinct administrative arrangements. This hampered the continuity in the implementation of the program between the two phases.

The European Commission (EC), the United Kingdom’s (UK) Department for International Development, and Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade5 have provided financial support to the Program. Over its lifetime, total contributions paid-in to the program amounted to $27.4 million. SAFANSI I was funded with $13.7 million from the UK and Australian governments. SAFANSI II received $13.7 million from the UK government and the EC. Due to changing priorities in its foreign aid program, the UK government exited SAFANSI on November 15, 2017.

SAFANSI was conceived at a time when FNS work was evolving from traditional, narrow interventions organized by ministries of health to a multisectoral approach involving the health, agriculture, water and sanitation, education, and rural development sectors, among others. SAFANSI was designed as a catalytic and niche program to advance the changing nutrition agenda. By providing access to small but flexible seed funding, SAFANSI addressed the need for greater government commitment, more evidence-based policies and programs, and inter-sectoral approaches to FNS.

To ensure country ownership and maximum flexibility to respond to identified needs, SAFANSI was set up as a programmatic trust fund.6 Activities funded through SAFANSI have been mostly demand-driven except for a few commissioned activities aligned with strategic priorities. This approach, and the multi-faceted and complex nature of FNS issues in South Asia, resulted in an extensive portfolio of relatively small activities at the regional, country, or sub-national level. Since its inception, SAFANSI has provided funding for 93 activities across a wide range of themes and sectors.7 Although the intention had been to finance a mix of Bank-executed and recipient-

4 Undernutrition is defined by UNICEF as the outcome of insufficient food intake and repeated infectious diseases. Undernutrition includes being underweight for one’s age, too short for one’s age (stunted), dangerously thin for one’s height (wasted) and deficient in vitamins and minerals (micronutrient malnutrition).

5 The UK contributed to both phases of SAFANSI. Australia contributed only to Phase I and the EC contributed only to Phase II.

6 SAFANSI is a programmatic trust fund that finances grants in a two-stage mechanism. In the first stage, donors agree to a thematic framework with criteria for supporting a program of activities. In the second stage, grants are approved for specific activities based on the agreed criteria.

executed activities,8 the limited time frame for each phase of the program was more conducive to financing Bank-executed technical assistance, awareness raising, research, and knowledge activities.9

The large portfolio of diverse activities has produced a wealth of outputs as captured in the SAFANSI I and II results (see Annexes 4 and 5, respectively). However, the aggregation of grant-level outputs does not capture SAFANSI’s broader impact at the program level. SAFANSI helped develop and advance a multisectoral nutrition agenda in client countries and within the World Bank. Globally, annual World Bank lending for projects with a nutrition objective or nutrition-sensitive outcome increased from $40.6 million in fiscal year (FY) 200810 to $1.4 billion in FY18.11 Over the last eight years, SAFANSI funding directly informed, contributed to, or leveraged $6.3 billion12 in World Bank investment lending in South Asia (see Annex 7). By advocating for multisectoral nutrition action — and backing that advocacy with funds for analysis, capacity development, and pilots to learn by doing — SAFANSI helped expand nutrition interventions in the World Bank’s investment portfolio. In comparison, many other FNS initiatives in the region focus solely on advocacy. Feedback from SAFANSI team leaders confirmed that much of this work could not have been done without SAFANSI financing.

With SAFANSI Phase II scheduled to close on September 30, 2019, the SAFANSI donor and steering committees requested a retrospective review analyzing all activities financed under both phases of the program and their impacts.13 The primary audiences for this report are SAFANSI donors and the World Bank, specifically staff working on South Asia and on FNS. More broadly, the report may also be of interest to national and sub-national governments, development partners, and other stakeholders and practitioners in the region.

The findings in this report are based on a comprehensive review of project documents, reports, analytical papers, and other outputs from 78 SAFANSI grants.14 The findings also reflect face-to-face consultations with 24 key stakeholders in Bangladesh, India, and Nepal, and videoconference consultations with 8 key stakeholders in Bhutan and Pakistan in December 2018.15 Within the World Bank, the report authors interviewed former and current SAFANSI team leaders, South Asia region country program coordinators, global nutrition leaders, former SAFANSI Secretariat staff and other staff involved in SAFANSI since its inception.

The report is organized as follows: Chapter 2 provides an overview of the FNS situation in South Asia, including progress and challenges over the last eight years. Chapter 3 examines SAFANSI grant-funded activities, including a portfolio analysis, grant results, and, where available, the program’s impact at the country level. Chapter 4 describes the genesis and evolution of SAFANSI from Phase I to Phase II in terms of program governance and

8 Bank-executed activities are projects for which the World Bank is the implementing entity. Recipient-executed activities are implemented by a client government.

9 Out of 93 activities funded by SAFANSI, only two were recipient-executed activities, both funded under SAFANSI Phase I.

10 The World Bank’s fiscal year (FY) runs from July 1 through June 30.

11 This lending data captures only those projects tagged against the Food Security and Nutrition theme and counts only the percentage of the total project amount allocated to the FNS theme, not the total project amount.

12 The amount represents the aggregation of the total costs of the 32 Bank-financed projects that SAFANSI contributed to or leveraged through grants approved before May 31, 2018. The amount is, therefore, not limited to FNS activities or components only. The contribution to about one-third of the Bank-financed projects is through leveraging or stimulating, in which SAFANSI has provided turnkey technical or operational support, such as strategic policy guidance notes or design and implementation of critical pilots. These activities have led to the development of or a scale-up/replication in the Bank-supported projects or a FNS component. For the remaining two-thirds of the Bank-supported projects, SAFANSI has financed more general implementation support, including impact evaluation (studies and/or design support), technical studies, learning notes, and behavioral change communication tools.

13 The authors of this retrospective study reviewed all closed or active grants financed by SAFANSI between 2010 and May 31, 2018. Grants that became effective after May 2018 were not included in the analysis. A complete list of SAFANSI-financed activities is provided in Annex 2.

14 Not included in this study’s analysis are 15 grants approved after May 31, 2018, and 9 grants related to program management and administration.

communications. Chapter 5 aggregates the key lessons learned from SAFANSI-funded grants and program execution. Finally, based on the findings of this report, and parallel research carried out to understand what was happening in the region over the course of the same period, Chapter 6 looks forward and concludes with unfinished and emerging priority FNS areas requiring attention.

Seven annexes are included at the end of the report. These include a list of stakeholders consulted (Annex 1), an overview of all SAFANSI grants (Annex 2), a summary of the main results from each completed grant (Annex 3), the Results Framework for SAFANSI I (Annex 4) and SAFANSI II (Annex 5), a list of all SAFANSI publications (Annex 6), and an overview of World Bank projects to which SAFANSI grants have contributed (Annex 7).

2. Food and Nutrition Security in South Asia– Progress and ChallengesThe scale of the undernutrition problem in South Asia is exceptional. Two key indicators of undernutrition in children under five are the rates of stunting (too short for the child’s age) and wasting (too thin for the child’s height). Most countries in South Asia have stunting rates above 30 percent and wasting rates above 10 percent (see Figure 1). The region is home to an estimated 40 percent of the world’s 155 million children that are stunted and 54 percent of the world’s 52 million children suffering from wasting.16

According to the most recent data available, stunting and wasting rates in South Asia vary widely between countries. While the stunting rates are highest in Afghanistan (41 percent), followed by India and Pakistan (38 percent each), the rate in Sri Lanka is 17 percent. In terms of wasting, India has a rate above 20 percent, followed by Sri Lanka at 15 percent. Pakistan and Bhutan have the lowest rates of 7 percent and 6 percent, respectively (see Figure 1). Additionally, a key measure of nutrition for adolescent and adult women is whether they suffer from anemia, a nutrition disorder typically caused by insufficient dietary iron. Current anemia rates for women of reproductive age vary from 52 percent in Pakistan to 33 percent in Sri Lanka (see Figure 1).

A high level of child undernutrition carries sizeable economic costs for countries through the loss of human capital and higher health costs.17 Studies for low- and middle-income countries find that undernutrition has negative effects in several dimensions. Child undernutrition, measured by stunting and other indicators, is associated with lower motor, cognitive, emotional, and social development; and with higher rates of illness, disability, and premature death. An estimated 45 percent of child deaths around the world each year are attributed to stunting, wasting, and underweight status, along with other measures of undernutrition. Child undernutrition is associated with poorer socioeconomic outcomes in adolescence and adulthood, measured by student academic achievement, employment, and earnings.

Progress in reducing undernutrition in the region has been mixed. For example, stunting rates have been declining in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and India, while the rate in Sri Lanka is unchanged. There has been a 7 percentage point reduction between 2012 and 2017 in Pakistan.18 In Bangladesh, India, and Nepal, stunting has declined by 1 to 1.4 percentage points per year since 2000. In 2012, the World Health Organization adopted global targets for reducing child and maternal undernutrition by 2025. The targets included reducing the child stunting burden by 40 percent, reducing anemia among women of reproductive age by 50 percent, and reducing the child wasting rate to less than 5 percent. Most countries in South Asia are behind in meeting the stunting and wasting targets. None of the South Asian countries are likely to meet the anemia targets.19 A comparison of the Global Burden of Disease20 estimates in 1990 and 2010 indicate that protein-energy malnutrition and iron-deficiency anemia remain among the leading causes of premature death and disability in the region.

Figure 1: Undernutrition rates, South Asia21

21 The stunting rate is defined as the share of children under age five with HAZ less than -2 standard deviations. The wasting rate is the share of children under age five with WHZ less than -2 standard deviations. The anemia rate is the share of women of reproductive age whose hemoglobin concentration in the blood is less than 120g/L.

Compared to the rest of the developing world, the levels and trends in child and maternal undernutrition in South Asia are inconsistent with or insensitive to the: (1) level of economic development, (2) rates of economic growth and poverty reduction, and (3) presence of several public food, cash, and maternal and child health programs with substantial infrastructure and human resources. Since 2000, the region’s income per capita has more than doubled and its poverty rate has been cut by more than half. Some health indicators, such as under-five and maternal mortality rates, have improved. But stunting and wasting rates for South Asian countries tend to be markedly higher than what would be predicted by gross national income per capita, especially, considering the improvement in under-five and maternal mortality rates in the region.

The nature of “nutrition production technology” is now well-established in the literature. Undernutrition can be transmitted between generations, and erasing deficits can take time, even with substantial improvements in environmental and social conditions. It is well known that differences in genes explain little of the variation in nutrition status between populations, that environmental and social factors explain much, and that history matters. In other words, there are no genetically similar groups of people who tend toward stunting, wasting, or other characteristics of malnutrition. Meanwhile, “nutrition production technology,” which is technology to generate nutrition gains, including the etiology of nutrition gains, is well known. It includes biological processes behind undernutrition, and what nutrition-specific interventions are needed such as supplementation and fortification, breastfeeding and complementary feeding, diversification, and emergency nutrition. It also includes when these interventions are needed during the lives of women and children, and the relationship of food and feeding, water and sanitation, and reproductive, newborn, child, and maternal health services. Biologically speaking, these nutrition-specific interventions work. However, they can fail to yield results if implemented poorly, especially when maternal and child health service availability and utilization are limited.22

A key question for nutrition research is why the application of nutrition production technology has not translated into greater declines in undernutrition in South Asia. The first area of investigation is the supply of nutrition-promoting goods and services by the public sector and private markets. Do governments and private markets fail to provide these goods and services? If so, to what extent, in what ways, and why? Specifically, are public initiatives undermined by nutrition program design and/or implementation issues? Is there an adequate service delivery mechanism for the community level at large? A second area of inquiry is consumer behavior with nutrition-promoting goods and services. Do households underinvest in nutrition, possibly differentially across household members? If so, to what extent, in what ways, and why? Specifically, is it due to high prices, nonmonetary constraints, or beliefs and preferences? Failures in public and private delivery and in household behaviour may interact in complex ways to maintain a high level of undernutrition. These questions on delivery and behavioral failure were a strategic focus for interventions under SAFANSI II.

To further understand the nutrition space in which SAFANSI was operating over the past eight years, a review of the nutrition interventions and knowledge products produced during that time was conducted. The review identified prominent gaps in evidence or where existing evidence is of poor quality, including nutrition-sensitive agriculture, private sector in FNS, gender and nutrition, child wasting, urban malnutrition, and climate change. These critical gaps will be discussed in detail in this report’s Conclusions – Looking Forward section.

22 See “Risk Factors for Chronic Undernutrition Among Children in India: Estimating Relative Importance, Population Attributable Risk and Fractions,” by D.J. Corsi et al. and published in Social Science & Medicine 157, 2016, pp. 165-185.

3. The SAFANSI Portfolio SAFANSI can finance activities in any of the eight South Asian countries — Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka — and regional activities in two or more of those countries. SAFANSI’s focus themes include agriculture (including livestock, fishery, forestry, and rural development); health, nutrition, and population; social safety nets; water supply and sanitation; rural policies and institutions; public administration; information and communications; and regional integration.

To anchor all activities, SAFANSI uses four strategic pillars: (1) improved evidence and analysis; (2) enhanced awareness and commitment; (3) building systems and capacity; and (4) fostering innovations (see Figure 2). Pillar 4 was added under SAFANSI II. All SAFANSI grants are linked to at least one pillar, and many are linked to two or more.

Figure 2: SAFANSI Strategic Pillars

Source: SAFANSI

In addition to alignment with the pillars, SAFANSI II proposals that responded to the following strategic areas were prioritized for funding: (1) research on critical delivery and behavioral failures, (2) innovations, and (3) data and capacity building. SAFANSI II seeks more high-quality research to identify the precise nature of FNS “delivery failures” and household “behavioral failures.” The underlying drivers of such failures vary in small geographic areas, within communities, and in rapidly changing societies. Innovations are needed to address bottlenecks in public service or market deliveries, or ease barriers that prevent some households from participating in nutrition-enhancing services. Lastly, a critical gap is the lack of adequate information on government expenditures on nutrition through multisectoral interventions. Public expenditure reviews are needed to track nutrition spending, develop guidance notes, and strengthen government capacity for data collection.

The programmatic and multisectoral nature of SAFANSI and wide range of potential activities has posed a challenge in aggregating results and capturing the overall impact of SAFANSI through the program-level results frameworks. The SAFANSI I results framework was designed to capture its impacts through its influence on national or country policies (see Annex 4).

14


SAFANSI Results Framework Program Results (2010–18)23

SAFANSI I (2010–15) contributed to: SAFANSI II (2015–18) contributed to:

• 37 national-level planning or policy documents emphasizing an integrated and coordinated (cross sector) approach to FNS.

• 32 development partners’ country strategies with an integrated, cross sector approach to FNS

• 30 integrated FNS country programs / operations in place.

• 7 multisectoral and evidence-based food and nutrition policies, programs or action plans developed and adopted by governments with financial or technical support from SAFANSI; of which 4 support women and girls of reproductive age and/or children <2 years of age

• Design, implementation or evaluation of 13 World Bank nutrition-sensitive projects, totaling $2.2 billion and reaching 16.2 million beneficiaries.

• 1 national or sub-national comprehensive multisectoral nutrition budgets developed.

Notes: For the purposes of measurement, a contribution would take the form of direct financial support for studies or dialogues that lead to policy reform/creation, technical advice provided through SAFANSI-funded programs or as a result of SAFANSI-funded programs, or policies/programs that cite SAFANSI materials as reference in their development.

Notes: Estimated/projected or actual beneficiaries, as of March 31, 2018. Multisectoral budgets can indicate spending in ministries/ departments directed to activities that will contribute to achieving nutrition outcomes as defined in national/sub-national policies/strategies.

Source: SAFANSI I Results Framework (Annex 4). SAFANSI I grants contributed to Bank investment of $4.1 billion (see Annex 7), though not directly measured through the results framework.

Source: SAFANSI II Results Framework (Annex 5), directly measures the: (a) contribution of SAFANSI to the design, implementation or evaluation of World Bank nutrition-sensitive projects; (b) number of projects; and (c) volume of lending.

Using lessons learned from the previous phase,24 the SAFANSI II results framework was set up to capture SAFANSI’s outcomes and impacts beyond its influence on nutrition policies, such as the development of national or sub-national nutrition budgets and SAFANSI’s contribution to Bank investments. Outcome indicators were better defined and more result-oriented, with an emphasis on gender, and contributions to/or leveraging of Bank-financed projects (see Annex 5). The results frameworks do not capture the full impact of SAFANSI, which will only become evident over time because influencing upstream policy and anthropometric results is a long-term process requiring sustained engagement. With a total contribution of $27.4 million, SAFANSI provided small, yet flexible, seed funds, in line with its four pillars, to help understand the cause of persistent undernutrition in South Asia and support the design of innovative FNS service delivery mechanisms. In keeping with its objective, SAFANSI, through its broad set of activities, has strengthened government commitment and increased capacity for effective and integrated FNS actions.

23 The SAFANSI Results Frameworks highlight SAFANSI’s contribution to the development of nutrition policies and action plans at the national and sub-national level in South Asian countries. However, the authors recognize that the development, adoption, and implementation of these policies and action plans is attributable first and foremost to government commitment to FNS and the collective support to the FNS agenda by the larger development community active in the region.

24 An independent evaluation of the program in 2013 by the UK’s Department for International Development noted that the Phase I results framework was “too input- and activity-focused, and therefore failed to capture how SAFANSI is influencing outcomes and ultimately contributing to FNS impact.” See HEART, Independent Evaluation and Strategic Review of the South Asia Food and Nutrition Security Initiative (SAFANSI) Report, page 10.

3.1 Portfolio at a Glance

SAFANSI supported stakeholder platforms to operationalize cross-sectoral action and effective domestic stewardship of the FNS agenda. SAFANSI has supported 78 activities25 with a total of $20.8 million in funding to address the undernutrition challenge in South Asia. The SAFANSI portfolio includes grants to all South Asian countries, excluding the Maldives,26 and regional grants for activities in two or more countries. Of the 78 activities, regional activities constituted about 20 percent of the portfolio. Most of the regional activities supported analytical work to fill critical knowledge gaps, such as multisectoral engagement in FNS, gender and nutrition, infant and young child feeding, and other issues. India, Nepal, and Bangladesh were the primary recipients of SAFANSI grant funding, with 34, 15, and 11 percent respectively. Afghanistan and Bhutan received the fewest number of grants and least amount of funding with 2 percent each (see Figure 3).

At the outset, it was envisaged that the program would finance a balance between Bank-executed and recipient-executed activities. In practice, out of the 78 technical grants approved, only two were recipient-executed. The limited implementation timeframe and funding envelope under each phase, was more conducive to funding Bank-executed activities. Recipient-executed activities typically require larger grant amounts to have an impact and more time to design, implement and complete, compared to Bank-executed grants.

SAFANSI has consistently promoted multisectoral and cross-sectoral approaches to address undernutrition. During both phases of SAFANSI, the health (31 grants)27 and agriculture (28 grants) sectors initiated and led most activities in the portfolio.28 Other sectors such as social protection, water and seven multisectoral activities also received grants (see Figure 4).

25 The portfolio analysis was limited to the review of 78 technical grants that were approved between 2010 and May 31, 2018, and excludes program-level grants, e.g. program management and administration, communications, and activities in support of SAFANSI as a knowledge platform (roundtable events, and other workshops), and grants approved after June 1, 2018.

26 The SAFANSI Secretariat did not receive proposals requesting funding for activities in the Maldives.

27 Also referred to as Health, Nutrition and Population (HNP) within the Bank.

28 The sector analysis is based on sector and sub-sector reporting through the Grant Funding Request (GFR) form for Phase I. For Phase II, the sector information is based on the sector associated with the Bank’s lead global practice for the activity. Although the majority of activities were led by the Agriculture and Health Global Practices, most were multisectoral in nature.

About half of SAFANSI activities focused on improving FNS evidence and analysis. Under this strategic pillar, the program supported various policy papers and independent impact evaluations of World Bank investment operations. SAFANSI-supported evidence-based analysis helped to raise the quality of project design, as well as policy and strategic dialogue with government counterparts. The second most common pillar supported was building systems and capacity, which included capacity strengthening activities related to Bank operations, as well as setting up project management systems, including monitoring and evaluation systems to capture nutrition outcomes. As many as 17 SAFANSI grants contributed to building systems and capacity (see Figure 5).

Activities that enhanced awareness and commitment, another strategic pillar of the program, included organizing conferences and roundtables. Other key activities to reach stakeholders involved the development of communications strategies, information notes, educational videos, blogs, a comprehensive, user-friendly website and training journalists about nutrition issues.

In phase II, SAFANSI-supported activities under the fourth pillar of fostering

innovations included technological solutions such as data visualization tools and interactive dashboards accessible through smartphones. Other activities rolled out innovative institutional mechanisms, such as the Social Observatory participatory tracking (P-tracking) systems and rapid results for nutrition initiatives.

3.2 SAFANSI Achievements – by Country

3.2.1 Regional Portfolio

SAFANSI has worked to deepen regional, multisectoral coordination across South Asia. Historically, regional cooperation or integration has been rather limited in South Asia. Through its regional activities, SAFANSI has supported policy development and advocacy across the region, such as budgeting nutrition interventions and strengthening infant and young child feeding. It facilitated knowledge sharing across countries through communication and capacity building activities, involving high level policymakers and government officials. Replicability of innovative interventions is also evident across countries. A monitoring tool developed by the Social Observatory in India is in use in Nepal, and a community-level nutrition promotion model in Bangladesh was first tested and proven by the Integrating Nutrition Promotion and Rural Development (INPARD) project in Sri Lanka. To this end, SAFANSI established stakeholder platforms that can operationalize cross - sectoral action and enable more effective domestic stewardship of the FNS agenda. By building on SAFANSI’s regional FNS portfolio, the agriculture sector is developing nutrition-smart agriculture29 profiles in South Asia with the dual objectives of improving human nutrition and increasing farm productivity or profits.

29 Nutrition-smart agriculture provides a set of agriculture or agro-processing technologies or practices that help improve human nutrition and increase farm productivity, income, or profits.

South Asia Regional Activities: Snapshot of broad thematic areas supported by SAFANSI

SAFANSI has supported FNS policy and advocacy across the region and beyond. The SAFANSI-financed Strengthen Infant and Young Child Feeding Capacity in South Asia Project developed World Breastfeeding Costing Initiative tools that were adopted by Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal and 16 countries outside the region. This project expanded the SAFANSI I-financed regional study, “South Asia Regional Assistance Strategy for Nutrition 2011-16,” and fostered a greater commitment to FNS through a multisectoral approach in South Asia. The infant and young child feeding project supported a study, “The Need to Invest in Babies,” which highlighted infant feeding practices and introduced the World Breastfeeding Costing Initiative tool to scale up the interventions. The project built the capacity of the Breast-Feeding Promotion Network of India and its partners in the International Baby Food Action Network in the above four focus countries in South Asia. It also supported strengthening infant and young child feeding programs and policies and helped the governments develop action plans.

As a follow-up, the SAFANSI-financed project, Addressing Critical Failures of Infant and Young Children Feeding (IYCF) in South Asia, is focusing on urban working mothers in Colombo and Delhi to understand constraints, such as access to child care among newly arrived migrant families from rural villages. These regional initiatives have influenced countries outside South Asia and would not have been possible without SAFANSI’s regional financing.

SAFANSI has paid special attention to gender in its regional activities. SAFANSI-financed regional activities examined links between gender and malnutrition in a flagship report and ways to empower women and their networks to make changes. The SAFANSI-supported report, “Gender-Inclusive Nutrition Activities in South Asia,” provided pathways for FNS gender inclusive programs. The report highlighted that gender was too narrowly addressed in most FNS interventions that focused on mothers’ knowledge, skills, and physical health, and overlooked social factors such as household and community support, resource control, and mental health. Additionally, adolescent girls are often ignored by existing programs despite high rates of undernutrition and pregnancy.30 SAFANSI has also worked with a regional network of women’s group, the Business, Enterprise and Employment Support (BEES) Network for Women in South Asia, to improve family income through dairy development, fisheries management and other entrepreneurial endeavors. These activities led to innovations in seed/food banks and ready-made meals, followed by another SAFANSI-financed project in the Chittagong Hills Tract in Bangladesh and a grant from the World Bank-administered South Asia Region Trade Facilitation Program.

3.2.2 Afghanistan

FNS is a major concern in Afghanistan. The government’s 2010 mortality survey reported an infant mortality rate of 77 out of every 1,000 births. Diarrhea, acute respiratory infections, and vaccine-preventable illnesses account for nearly 60 percent of deaths in children under five in Afghanistan. In 2012, about 9 million Afghans did not eat the daily minimum necessary.31 Childhood stunting linked to poor nutrition was 41 percent in 2013, one of the highest rates in the world.32 Recognizing the importance of FNS, the Afghanistan

government launched its Food Security and Nutrition Agenda in 2017. The goal of the program is to ensure that every Afghan is well-nourished through the availability of sufficient, stable food supplies and healthy diets.

Afghanistan: Snapshot of broad thematic areas supported by SAFANSI

Note: “Afghanistan and Region” refers to SAFANSI regional activities with a focus on Afghanistan, such as the Infant and Young Child Feeding Project and the Regional Cost and Cost-Effectiveness Study.

Despite a fragile and difficult operating environment, SAFANSI contributed to the evolution of nutrition policies in Afghanistan by supporting the implementation of the Nutrition Action Framework with five key ministries and informing the Afghanistan National Nutrition Plan that is under development. Focusing on the first 1,000 days of life — pregnancy through a child’s two-year birthday — the Government of Afghanistan developed the Nutrition Action Framework, which complemented the Afghanistan National Development Strategy (2008-13). In supporting the implementation of the action framework, SAFANSI’s Multisectoral Plan to Promote FNS developed the “Nutrition Solution Series,” which identified and refined promising programmatic platforms for scaling-up effective nutrition solutions. SAFANSI worked with Afghanistan’s ministries of public health, agriculture, commerce, education, and rural development.

Among other things, the “Nutrition Solution Series” documented findings from the “Care for Afghan Families” pilot which received an award from the South Asia Development Marketplace for Nutrition. Infant and young child feeding practices are a key determinant of malnutrition in Afghanistan. In three northeastern provinces, the pilot promoted exclusive breastfeeding for children under six months old and encouraged families to offer age-appropriate complementary foods to children between six and 24 months old. The pilot formed breastfeeding support groups in villages and established breastfeeding counseling centers at district health facilities. The outreach targeted mothers and their community and social support networks, especially mothers-in-law and husbands.

The pilot aimed for increases of 10-15 percent in women who began breastfeeding immediately after childbirth and in women who exclusively breastfed their infant for the first six months. According to the impact evaluation, increases of 17 percent or greater occurred in both feeding indicators. This pilot was one of 21 innovative projects financed by the South Asia Development Market Place for Nutrition with implementation and evaluation by the SAFANSI-financed regional project, Evaluating and Learning from Innovative Community Approaches to Improving Child Nutrition.

The new National Nutrition Plan is informed by the SAFANSI-financed Regional Costing and Cost-effective Analysis. A scale-up in preventive interventions to full coverage level through the Bank-financed project, Systems Enhancement for Health Action in Transition, would have a bigger impact reducing stunting and anemia. The study examined the costs, impacts, and cost-effectiveness in the next five years of scaling up the nutrition interventions, including Afghanistan’s Basic Package of Health Services, which invested in human capital in the early years. Accordingly, the total public investment required for the scale up to government-set program coverage levels is estimated at $44 million annually over five years, or $1.49 per capita per year. With an additional $5 million each year through a Bank-supported systems enhancement project, the preventive interventions could reach full program coverage levels. That would result in almost double the number of deaths

19

averted and prevent almost eight times as many cases of stunting, resulting in a 3 percentage point decline in stunting to 38 percent at the end of five years. The prevalence of anemia in pregnant women could decline by 12 percentage points, and exclusive breastfeeding could increase by 18 percentage points.

3.2.3 Bangladesh

Bangladesh has made remarkable progress in reducing poverty, supported by annual economic growth of more than 6 percent over the last decade. During this period, poverty levels were halved and real per capita GDP almost quadrupled. Life expectancy, literacy rates, and per capita food production have increased significantly. In July 2015, the World Bank elevated Bangladesh’s status from a low-income country to a lower-middle income country. In 2018, Bangladesh fulfilled all three eligibility criteria to graduate from the UN’s Least Developed Countries (LDC) list. While income growth, human development, and vulnerability reduction efforts have been significant, 22 million Bangladeshis or 14.8 percent of the population continue to live below the international poverty line of $1.90 per person per day.33 About 36 percent of children under five suffer from chronic malnutrition and 14 percent are acutely malnourished.34 Maternal undernutrition is high, with 50 percent of pregnant women and 40 percent of non-pregnant/non-lactating women suffering from anemia.

Bangladesh: Snapshot of broad thematic areas supported by SAFANSI

SAFANSI contributed to key national policies of the Government of Bangladesh: the Second National Plan of Action on Nutrition and the Seventh Five-Year Plan. SAFANSI also informed the World Bank’s Systematic Country Diagnostic in 2015 and Country Partnership Framework in FY 2016-20. The SAFANSI-financed study, “Regional Costing and Cost-Effectiveness,” contributed to the nutrition budgeting of the government’s national plan of action launched in August 2017. It is a major policy milestone and updated the previous food security plan by introducing a multisectoral approach to nutrition and nutrition security.

SAFANSI’s study estimated the total cost of key nutrition interventions at $537 million over 10 years, to be implemented through government health, nutrition, population, social protection, water, education, and agriculture and rural development programs. The interventions would gradually be scaled up to reach 90 percent coverage of the population. Interventions include providing iron and folic acid supplements to pregnant women (current coverage of 27 percent), therapeutic solution for diarrhea treatment (currently 38 percent), and rice fortification (currently 1 percent). The study argues that the interventions would prevent almost 50,000 deaths in children under five and more than 500,000 cases of stunting. The gains would increase the nation’s economic productivity by about $5.6 billion over the lifetimes of the children, with a cost-benefit ratio of 20.5.35

35 The economic benefits were estimated based on mortality, stunting, and micronutrient deficiency reductions resulting from the coverage expansion. One life year saved was valuated as one-time gross domestic product (GDP) per capita (current USD). To estimate the value of the reduction in stunting, a year of life lived without stunting was valued based on the assumption that stunted individuals lose an average of 21 percent of lifetime earnings. Future benefits were then age-adjusted and discounted at two potential discount rates (3 and 5 percent) to arrive at their present values. The present value of future benefits was then compared with that of the estimated 10-year public investment required, which allowed to estimate the net present value and internal rate of return of the investment.

20


The SAFANSI-financed study, “Bangladesh Dynamics of Rural Growth,” informed the Government of Bangladesh’s Five-Year Plan for 2016-20 and the World Bank’s Systematic Country Diagnostics and Country Partnership Framework. The study had five key findings: (1) 87 percent of rural households still rely on farm income; (2) lack of credit constrains rural non-farm enterprises; (3) the largest share of public expenditure on agriculture goes to fertilizer subsidies; (4) crop diversification is an important priority; and, (5) the private sector should be allowed in the seed sector. The study has also informed ongoing policy dialogue on the promotion of nutrition-focused agricultural policies instead of food security-centered agricultural policies.

SAFANSI made a substantial contribution to social protection in Bangladesh by supporting an impact evaluation of a conditional cash transfer pilot program to the poorest households.36 The impact evaluation found participating households that received cash payments averaging $5-10 per month increased food consumption and reduced wasting in children under two. The Shombhob, or “Possible,” conditional cash transfer pilot delivered bimonthly payments for about 18 months to the poorest families with children up to three years old or primary school aged, provided they fulfilled a range of nutrition or education-related obligations such as regular child growth monitoring and nutrition awareness training. The payment amount varied by family size.

The evaluation found almost all cash transfers were spent on food, which boosted total food consumption by 11 percent in surveyed households. Purchases of protein-rich foods increased significantly among households that participated in voluntary nutrition awareness sessions. The pilot also supported a reduction of about 13 percentage points in the incidence of wasting among infants who were 10-22 months old at baseline. The evaluation concluded that the combination of cash, nutrition education, and child growth monitoring motivated mothers to feed their infants and children more nutritious food.37 The pilot was scaled up, through a $300 million Bank project, Income Support Program for the Poorest, focusing on child nutrition and cognitive development. SAFANSI funds also supported the development of detailed impact evaluation methodology for this project.

Box 1: Bangladesh: Protecting children with a toilet and soap

After months of saving, Amena Begum made a major investment to protect the health of her three young children. She spent $100 to construct a modest toilet outside her home. Amena, who lives in a village in the Habiganj district in Bangladesh, made the toilet a priority after learning about the deadly risks of fecal contamination.

In rural villages, families without toilets often discard feces in nearby bushes, creating a dangerous hazard for young children playing outdoors. A SAFANSI-funded study of childhood diarrhea in Bangladesh found traces of human feces on children’s hands and in soil. In addition to promoting toilet use, the study recommended behavior changes such as handwashing with soap and discouraging young children from accidentally or intentionally eating soil.

SAFANSI funds studies such as this to guide its work to improve childhood nutrition.

36 The project defined poorest household as households that belong to the bottom two expenditure quintiles with pregnant women and/or mothers of children below the age of 60 months.

SAFANSI has played an important role filling critical knowledge gaps about undernutrition in Bangladesh and promoting innovations to achieve better nutritional outcomes among pregnant and lactating mothers and children under two in indigenous and disadvantaged areas. SAFANSI has demonstrated the effectiveness of information and communication technology (ICT) such as websites, TV, radio, and YouTube to change behavior. The SAFANSI-financed project, Leveraging Information Technology to Achieve Better Nutrition Outcomes in the Chittagong Hill Tracts, also supported women’s groups in the BEES Network to mobilize women and children in participatory video-making. This was facilitated by Digital Green, an NGO promoting technology in small-scale agriculture systems.

The preliminary assessment said the project showed great potential for the creation of a community-learning system to improve nutrition, and the ICT-based approach has been featured in reference tools such as the “ICT in Agriculture e-Sourcebook.”38 SAFANSI also supported WorldFish in producing videos and notes on micronutrient-rich small fish, including availability, accessibility, and preparation. SAFANSI has also promoted behavioral change interventions based on research (see Box 1). In the health sector, SAFANSI produced two videos on community clinic healthcare, which were seen by more than 20,000 viewers of a TV talk show. The videos were viewed more than 25,000 times on Facebook Live, and viewed 23,000 times on-line.

3.2.4 Bhutan

Bhutan’s national poverty rate was 8.2 percent in 2017.39 Despite significant improvements, the stunting rate of children under five is about 34 percent and the wasting rate is around 6 percent. The mortality rate for children under five was about 30 deaths per 1,000 live births,40 and the death rate was twice as high in rural areas compared to towns and cities.41 Anemia is also stubbornly high. About 81 percent of children and 55 percent of women in Bhutan are anemic. Women, especially, are anemic throughout their lives. Among adolescent girls, the rate of anemia is 59 percent; among women ages 21 to 35, the rate is 51 to 54 percent; and in women over 36 the rate rises to 65 percent. Bhutan’s poorest people live in remote, mountainous terrain that exacerbates food and nutrition insecurity. Bhutan’s FNS goals, objectives, policy and planning are generally stated in its 2014 Food and Nutrition Security Policy.

Bhutan: Snapshot of broad thematic areas supported by SAFANSI

By engaging multisectoral stakeholders, the SAFANSI-financed study, “National Nutrition Assessment,” identified direct and indirect nutrition-specific factors contributing to undernutrition in Bhutan. The study informed the government’s Five-Year Plan for 2013-18. The study found the key causes of stunting were indirect and nutrition-sensitive: women’s poor nutrition and care before and during pregnancy as reflected in anemia rates. Other factors were specific to Bhutan. Many villages are inaccessible, some at high altitudes that affect

crop selection and production, and urban migration means there are fewer farm workers. Bhutan’s dependence on food imports makes it vulnerable to world price fluctuations. Cultural and ethnic factors influence access to nutrition services and feeding practices. Finally, communities are unaware of the nutrition links to stunting and anemia, and few nutrition experts are available to educate and change community behavior (see Box 2).

The SAFANSI study recommended five short-term priorities: (1) providing iron supplements for school-age girls and pregnant and lactating mothers; (2) fortifying food with nutrients; (3) coordinating nutrition-specific/sensitive interventions; (4) raising awareness of health, education, agriculture, and water/sanitation staff to nutrition issues; and (5) reducing adolescent pregnancies. Without the SAFANSI-financed analytical work, nutrition issues could not have been mainstreamed in Bhutan because the Bank’s financial resources and budget allocation are limited.

Box 2: Bhutan: Telling the story of healthy diets

Story-telling keeps the kingdom of Bhutan’s colorful Himalayan culture alive. A different kind of story-telling is now being used to persuade Bhutanese to improve their health and diets.

The rugged terrain challenges Bhutan’s ability to grow enough food. Bhutanese living in isolated rural areas cannot access a reliably diverse diet throughout the year and eat mostly two vegetables — potatoes and chili peppers.

The lack of variety of foods is a concern, especially for pregnant and nursing women and young children. Malnutrition during pregnancy and the first year of life can cause irreversible damage and contribute to stunted growth, lower cognitive development, and a predisposition to adult-onset diseases.

Bhutan’s agriculture and health ministries recently launched a pilot project to improve nutrition during the first 1,000 days of children’s lives. The SAFANSI-supported project identifies drivers of food habits. Life stories, testimonials, and images are used to convey positive messages to encourage behavior changes. The program is run by the Tarayana Foundation, a local civil society group, with government help.

In following up, the SAFANSI-financed project, Capacity Development and Communication for Improved Nutrition Outcomes in Rural Households, supports the first 1,000 days of life in remote rural villages. The project targets pregnant and lactating mothers to diversify their diets and improve child care practices, using the participatory platforms formed by the Bhutan Food Security and Agriculture Productivity Project, and financed by the Global Food Security and Agriculture Program.

3.2.5 India

India has made rapid strides in improving its food and nutrition security. India has become a net food exporter thanks to a five-fold increase in food grain production to about 250 million tons, up from 50 million tons in 1951. In health, the rate of stunting children under five declined to 38 percent in 2016, from 48 percent just 10 years earlier. However, India has a population of more than 1 billion and is home to one-third of the world’s poor, and continues to have one of the world’s highest child undernutrition rates. India has nearly 195 million undernourished people.42

The Government of India launched POSHAN Abhiyaan in March 2018, which is a multi-ministerial convergence mission to reduce stunting in targeted districts with the goal of a malnutrition-free India by 2022. The 2013 National Food Security Act made access to food a legal right, and aims to ensure food and nutrition security for the most vulnerable through various programs. In 2016, the government launched programs to double farmers’ incomes by 2022, including the National Food Security Mission, Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana, the Integrated Schemes on Oilseeds, Pulses, Palm Oil and Maize, Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana, the e-marketplace, and a large-scale irrigation and soil and water harvesting program.43

India: Snapshot of broad thematic areas supported by SAFANSI

SAFANSI’s key contribution in India is the development of a village-level multisectoral nutrition service delivery system, which was scaled up and refined through Bank-financed national and state rural livelihood projects. In implementing recommendations from the Bank’s report, “South Asia Regional Assistance Strategy for Nutrition 2011-16,” the SAFANSI-financed project, Multisectoral Nutrition Actions in Bihar, supported the design of a multisectoral nutrition convergence pilot in the state of Bihar. The project was implemented through community-level institutions, such as self-help groups and their federations, formed by the Bank-supported project, Bihar Rural Livelihoods, known as Jeevika. Focusing on the first 1,000 days of life, the pilot increased availability of nutritious food for pregnant and lactating mothers through a Food Security Fund set up by Jeevika. The fund loaned food grains to poor households as part of efforts to improve health and nutrition (see Box 3).

The pilot delivered nutrition counseling through the Bank-financed Integrated Child Development Services Systems Strengthening and Nutrition Improvement, and nutrition and sanitation behavior change communications by the Swachh Bharat Mission Support Operation. The SAFANSI-supported project, Community Managed Food and Nutrition Security Initiative in High Poverty States in India, developed knowledge products about village-level FNS deliveries that informed three Bank-supported rural livelihood projects in the states of Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Odisha.

Box 3: India: Village self-help groups teach nutrition

Village self-help groups are an important source of nutrition education for millions of Indian women who never went to school.

At a group in Bihar’s Saharsa district, Shoba proudly held her 10-month-old, Anjali. The baby appeared healthy, thanks to a diet of breast milk plus diverse vegetables, pulses and cereals.

But as the women talked, Shoba revealed that Anjali received barely a spoonful or two of solid foods at each meal. None of the women realized such tiny amounts put Anjali at risk of malnourishment. SAFANSI works with self-help groups to promote behavior changes.

SAFANSI’s eco-system development and knowledge management were made possible by the rich community-level data collected by the Social Observatory, the largest SAFANSI-financed activity and one of the most innovative. To diagnose how market, government, and behavioral failures affected FNS outcomes, the Social Observatory set up a monitoring mechanism in Bihar and collected FNS data from targeted households through participatory surveys about village food prices, availability, and affordability. The mechanism supported, for instance, an impact evaluation of Jeevika’s Food Security Fund. The evaluation indicated self-help group members living in villages that participated in the fund consumed the quantity and types of food that they desired by 0.2 days and 0.4 more days per week, respectively, than villagers in control areas. The data and the results of various impact evaluations were used to improve the FNS design of Bank-supported rural livelihoods projects in India (see Box 4).

Box 4: India: Social Observatory dataset helps villagers, researchers

The SAFANSI-financed Social Observatory collected data from more than 10,000 households in the Indian states of Bihar, Tamil Nadu, and Odisha to increase citizen engagement in community projects. For example, one annual survey created by village members asked how many times a day a respondent eats, whether the family member who eats last gets enough to eat, and other questions about family income, assets, and health. Village self-help groups and Bank staff use the data to make mid-course corrections in programs to improve their effectiveness. The Social Observatory and its participatory tracking, or P-tracking, technique has been adopted by Nepal, Indonesia, and other governments and NGOs.

Researchers have used the trove of data to publish 10 peer-reviewed studies about anti-poverty interventions. For example, one study analyzed Odisha food security and safety nets in the context of climate change and disaster risk management. Scholarly analyses using Social Observatory data have been presented at national and international conferences and cited in other research papers at least 75 times.

Additionally, the Social Observatory’s monitoring mechanism at community levels was established as the Participatory Tracking (P-tracking) system, collecting data from households to use as a management tool by the self-help groups and their federations, and Bank-project staff. The Social Observatory developed a P-tracking manual and five training videos for wider use. P-tracking has also been adopted by governments and NGOs, including a nationwide effort in Nepal and Indonesia.

SAFANSI has worked with the private sector to improve nutrition in the dairy value chain, through the Improved Nutrition Through Milk Micronutrient Fortification pilot program. The 12-month pilot initiative targeted the production of 2 million metric tons of A- and D-fortified milk across four states. The business model supported five dairy producer companies and state-level milk federations, and informed regulatory reforms that permitted the fortification of all types of liquid milk such as skim, low-fat and full cream. The pilot was rapidly scaled up through the World Bank’s National Dairy Support Project to 16 states, and, through February 2019, had already reached some 12 million consumers with 607,000 metric tons of fortified milk. By the end of the project in June 2019, an estimated 55 million consumers will have been reached with an aggregate 2.8 million metric tons of fortified milk.

SAFANSI-financed activities have filled critical knowledge gaps in FNS in marginalized areas and among tribal people. The SAFANSI-financed program, Cross-Sectoral Technical Support on Nutrition in the North East of India, is supporting an impact evaluation of the Bank-financed project, Nagaland Health. Focus group findings reported that not enough specific services for nutrition were available, and health and nutrition government departments needed to collaborate more in planning and implementing them. The SAFANSI-financed report, “Improving Food Security in Tribal Areas,” supported guidance notes about the drivers of food and nutrition insecurity in tribal areas and action steps, which informed national and state rural livelihood development projects.

3.2.6 Nepal Food and nutrition security are a significant concern for the Government of Nepal. The agricultural sector employs about two-thirds of the population yet struggles to produce adequate food for the country. Approximately 36 percent of Nepal’s children under five suffer from stunting, 10 percent from wasting and almost 53 percent from anemia. Thirty-five percent of reproductive age women suffer from anemia44 and 17 percent have long-term energy deficiencies. These statistics differ by geographical region and social group.

Although undernutrition remains a significant issue in Nepal, obesity is becoming a health concern because 22 percent of women are overweight or obese45. To tackle these issues, the Government of Nepal launched the Multisector Nutrition Plan II.

Nepal: Snapshot of broad thematic areas supported by SAFANSI

SAFANSI-financed analytical work informed the government’s first National Multisector Nutrition Action Plan for 2013-17 and supported the pilot and design of the Bank-financed project, Sunaula Hazar Din – Community Action for Nutrition. The SAFANSI-supported impact evaluation of the Sunaula Hazar Din project facilitated SAFANSI’s continued engagement in the development of a second National Multisector Nutrition Action Plan that runs through 2022. The SAFANSI-financed work, Scaling-Up Nutrition Initiative Technical Assistance (SUNITA), informed the government’s first national nutrition action plan. SUNITA supported the pilot program, Rapid Results for Nutrition Initiatives, which mobilized targeted village development committees to form community action plans setting nutrition, health, food security, and/or water and sanitation goals to improve the well-being of mothers and infants during their first 1,000 days. The village committees accessed public or private funds to implement their action plans.

Key findings from SAFANSI-financed impact evaluations of the Sunaula Hazar Din nutrition project said that the selected goals were more likely to benefit the whole community rather than pregnant and lactating mothers and children under two. About 53 percent of the village committees surveyed set the goal of ending open defecation,

while 46 percent set a goal to achieve clean and safe water. The nutrition goals most relevant to the first 1,000 days of a child’s life — pregnant women and young children eating more animal protein, and mothers taking iron and folic acid supplements — were chosen by only 27 percent and 5 percent of the village committees, respectively. Focus groups also found that women were less likely to participate in the nutrition project action plans, and that ethnic minorities often did not participate (see Box 5).

Box 5: Nepal: A 1,000-day window of opportunity

In the Nepal language, “Sunaula Hazar Din” means “Golden 1,000 Days” — a critical period from conception to age two for nutrition. Sunaula Hazar Din is also the nickname of a nutrition project that aimed to change practices that contribute to malnutrition in women of reproductive age and young children. Communities in the project formed groups of nine members who selected and worked together on an activity to address malnutrition for 100 days. SAFANSI supported a study to learn how groups carried out their work. It found male group members hindered the meaningful participation of women.

One group facilitator said, “making women leaders is quite challenging as illiterate men start to feel threatened.” Such information is valuable because some of the project techniques will be embedded in local governance structures.

3.2.7 Pakistan

Pakistan has become a food-surplus country and a major producer of wheat and rice in recent years. Despite the growth in food production, Pakistan’s poorest and most vulnerable cannot afford a sufficient and nutritious diet. According to the UN World Food Program, approximately 60 percent of Pakistanis face food insecurity,46 and malnutrition is high. About 38 percent of children under five suffer from stunting. Women and girls are further disadvantaged in accessing food and humanitarian assistance, due to social and cultural norms and practices. Ongoing conflict between the Government of Pakistan and militant groups, natural disasters such as drought, earthquakes and floods, and economic instability exacerbate food insecurity and disrupt livelihood opportunities, particularly in rural areas.

In recent years, the government’s commitment to address such challenges is increasingly evident, with steps to scale up a nationwide, multisectoral approach at the core of its development agenda. Pakistan’s latest Five-Year Development Plan includes a nutrition component, and provincial action plans are being implemented together with decentralized budget analyses.

Pakistan: Snapshot of Broad Thematic Areas Supported by SAFANSI

SAFANSI has supported the government by providing analytical works to help address child stunting. By expanding on the midline evaluation of the Bank-supported project, Pakistan Poverty Alleviation Fund III, the SAFANSI-supported Child Nutritional Outcomes and Community Based Health Service Provision Project revealed the level of water and sanitation awareness in rural Pakistan. The study found more than two-thirds of water at the source, and three-fourths of water held in storage containers were significantly contaminated, but less than 4 percent of households treated stored water. One-third of surveyed households had no toilet facility, and only one-third reported washing hands after cleaning a child’s bottom.

After the central government delegated nutrition-related issues to provincial governments in 2010, SAFANSI supported the development of nutrition policy guidance notes in four provinces, which facilitated the development of three Bank-financed projects in the health sector. The SAFANSI-financed project, Multisectoral Nutrition Dialogue and Technical Assistance, helped the four provincial governments of Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab, and Sindh prepare their own nutrition policy guidance notes. Among these provinces, Sindh had a stunting rate of 57 percent, higher than the national average of 45 percent in 2012-13. The stunting rate was lower in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab (42 percent and 40 percent, respectively), but stunting was evident among at least one-fourth of young children living in food-secure households.47

The four nutrition policy guidance notes stress multisectoral coordination and focus on water and hygiene, food security, health care services, girls’ education, and social safety nets. As a result of this work, Pakistan joined the Scaling Up Nutrition movement and developed two new Bank-financed health sector projects at provincial level: Sindh Enhancing Response to Reduce Stunting Project and Enhanced Nutrition for Mothers and Children to improve nutrition service delivery in the first 1,000-day window. In Punjab, the provincial policy guidance note led to a restructuring of the Bank-supported Punjab Health Sector Reform Project ($71 million), which reallocated resources for health-related nutrition interventions.

The findings and recommendations from the SAFANSI-financed study, Adolescent Nutrition in Pakistan Identifying Opportunities and Setting Priorities, contributed to the development of a national strategy for adolescent nutrition under preparation by the Federal Ministry of National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination. The grant helped establish a National Technical Advisory and Advocacy Working Group to influence policies, strategies, and action plans to improve adolescent nutrition, including those goals set out in the Framework for Action. This advocacy and learning platform created by the health ministry brings together key stakeholders in the government, development community including the Scaling Up Nutrition Secretariat, UN agencies and implementing partners from the public and private sectors.

3.2.8 Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka’s stunting rate is 17 percent, which is the second lowest in South Asia. The nation’s wasting rate of 15 percent ranks second in the region, after India with 21 percent. Acute malnutrition and

micronutrient deficiencies remain serious concerns. Sri Lanka has pockets of underserved areas, such as tea estates. An island country, Sri Lanka is highly vulnerable to climate change and natural disasters. Sri Lanka joined the Scaling Up Nutrition movement in 2012. The country’s National Nutrition Council serves as the multisectoral governance mechanism to operationalize the Multisectoral Action Plan for Nutrition 2017-20.

Sri Lanka: Snapshot of Broad Thematic Areas Supported by SAFANSI

In Sri Lanka, SAFANSI focused on disadvantaged areas. SAFANSI supported development of a community-based nutrition promotion model in collaboration with government ministries at the divisional level in Sri Lanka’s post-conflict northeast. SAFANSI also collected data on malnutrition in the tea estate sector. These activities informed the government’s Multisector Action Plan for Nutrition. The SAFANSI-financed project, Integrating Nutrition Promotion and Rural Development (INPARD), supported village development organizations in the northeast, formed by the Bank-supported project, Community Livelihoods in Conflict-Affected Areas, to develop and implement nutrition plans for school children and their families. The plans were developed with technical support from local offices of the government’s health, education, agriculture, fisheries, livelihoods, and economic development departments. With support from the local government, nutrition training was provided at schools and villages, which led some schools to serve nutritionally balanced lunches using local produce.

A SAFANSI-financed impact evaluation of the INPARD project found consumption of vegetables increased in surveyed areas (2 extra servings or 160 grams per week per person), compared to control areas (a reduction by 0.1 serving). The evaluation also found an increase in the number of men and women with a healthy weight and waist circumference. Other findings included a decline in the number of schools selling sugary snacks and a significant decrease in the number of students eating fast food. The INPARD community-based nutrition promotion model informed the Sri Lanka government’s nutrition action plan and was replicated in the Bank-financed rural livelihoods development Nuton Jibon project in Bangladesh. A SAFANSI-supported project, Improving Nutrition through Modernizing Agriculture in Sri Lanka, will pilot the INPARD model through the Bank-financed Agriculture Sector Modernization Project, which supports farmer organizations in partnership with public and private sectors to boost production and sales.

The SAFANSI-financed project, Multisectoral Nutrition Assessment in Sri Lanka’s Estate Sector, informed the nutrition action plan for the tea estate sector, which fed into the government’s nutrition action plan. SAFANSI has supported an evidence-based public policy dialogue to help develop an estate nutrition plan of action. A collaborative network of public, private and NGO partners has also been supported by SAFANSI to engage in advocacy, community mobilization, and information and communication technology to advance the development and implementation of an estate nutrition plan of action. The SAFANSI-financed study, Nutrition Positive Deviance Analysis, identified successful behaviors of positive deviance that could help estate sector residents achieve better nutrition.

4. Program Management and AdministrationGovernance. SAFANSI was created as a multi-donor program and financed through two consecutive multi-donor trust funds. The program was originally governed by a small secretariat housed in the World Bank’s agriculture department for South Asia. Placing the secretariat there was a strategic decision to change the traditional image of nutrition as solely a health issue, and to encourage agriculture and health sector specialists to collaborate. The sectoral diversity of the SAFANSI portfolio is a testament to the positive impact of this decision. Under Phase II, SAFANSI program management is led jointly by the Bank’s South Asia Regional Integration Office and the Agriculture Global Practice, creating stronger linkages with the regional strategy and country management units.

The strategic direction and overall guidance for SAFANSI has been provided by the Donor Committee, which has representatives from each donor. Under SAFANSI II, the governance structure expanded to include a SAFANSI Steering Committee chaired by the Bank’s South Asia Regional Integration Director. Other members included World Bank experts from the Global Practices for Agriculture, and Health, Nutrition, and Population; South Asia country program coordinators; and the South Asia region’s chief economist. The SAFANSI Steering Committee is responsible for funding allocation decisions. A Technical Advisory Committee, which was planned but not operationalized under SAFANSI I, began reviewing proposals to ensure the technical quality of funding requests under SAFANSI II. Committee members are technical experts from relevant departments throughout the Bank.

SAFANSI funding allocations are based on a call for proposals process. Calls are issued periodically subject to funding availability. Proposals are initiated by World Bank team leaders, using SAFANSI’s proposal template, and aligned with client country or regional priorities. The procedures were slightly revised between Phase I and Phase II, but under both phases proposals were subject to a technical review and clearance by the relevant World Bank country management unit to ensure country ownership of the activity. Final approval of proposals was by the SAFANSI Program Manager during Phase I, and by the Steering Committee under Phase II. Team leaders interviewed for this report said the grant approval process was relatively simple. Consultation with country management units found the prioritization of proposals and inclusion of Country Program Coordinators on the Steering Committee helped to ensure approved proposals were well-aligned with ongoing country programs. Approved proposals are subject to the same due diligence and quality control as projects financed from Bank’s budget or the International Development Association.

One of the innovations created during SAFANSI II was a just-in-time window to finance small activities that can provide a quick response. Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis for grants up to $50,000 to be implemented within eight months. The just-in-time window has proven a successful addition under Phase II, with seven grants approved for knowledge sharing and dissemination, exchange of information between South Asian countries, and rapid surveys and evaluations (see Annex 2 grants marked “Just-in-Time Window”).

Knowledge Management. A critical innovation during Phase II prioritized SAFANSI funding in response to evidence-based knowledge. The operating principles were expanded to acknowledge the need to embed an effective knowledge management system in the trust fund’s operations. The principles for Phase II established the need to generate, disseminate, and leverage original research to tackle food quality and safety issues, and nutrient deficiencies and their impacts on labor productivity, economic activity, quality of life, and society in general.

As a logical extension of this innovation, the program focused on communications and knowledge management. SAFANSI II developed a communications strategy with branding and visibility guidelines. Communications

30


activities included creating a monthly SAFANSI newsletter, SAFANSI results stories and blogs, a SAFANSI website, a series of SAFANSI roundtables, and other knowledge sharing events. The knowledge management system has sought new ways to make SAFANSI findings available to stakeholder communities, including events to stimulate discussion of FNS issues.

SAFANSI’s communications team organized a series of roundtable meetings to bring together policy and program planners, private sector stakeholders, nutrition experts, client governments and donors. Such outreach meetings ensure better strategic alignment of activities to support nutrition and identify pathways for sustainable government support of nutrition outcomes. The events successfully promoted networking and cross-sectoral collaboration to expand on SAFANSI’s existing work.

Though the program is not yet complete, SAFANSI I and II have produced more than 100 communications products such as videos, blogs, feature stories, studies, and social media messages that showcase FNS results. The SAFANSI website engages with the public on FNS issues and makes available all program outputs on the SAFANSI Products page.

5. Main FindingsSAFANSI has mainstreamed multisectoral approaches in FNS interventions at national, provincial, district, and/or community levels in South Asian countries. In addition to the national-level multisectoral collaboration in developing national nutrition action plans or five-year plans, SAFANSI has facilitated provincial-level collaboration in Pakistan, and divisional, as well as community-level collaboration in Sri Lanka. At the community level, SAFANSI supported design and implementation of FNS interventions through village-level institutions in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. The multisectoral FNS service delivery mechanisms were scaled up, and/or replicated, in Bank-financed agriculture projects in Bangladesh, India, and Sri Lanka. In India, especially, the multisectoral FNS interventions through self-help groups and their federations have been mainstreamed in national and state rural livelihoods development projects. As a result, SAFANSI-financed projects contributed to, or leveraged many Bank-financed projects and operationalized various multisectoral models. This has also contributed to the increase in nutrition-sensitive projects in the Bank’s South Asia portfolio.

SAFANSI has informed 11 national policies in South Asia,48 including six national nutrition action plans in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. In Pakistan, SAFANSI supported the development of provincial nutrition policy guidance notes in four provinces, which informed Bank-financed health sector projects in the provinces. In Afghanistan and Nepal, SAFANSI has continued its support in developing and/or implementing the national nutrition action plans over two cycles: The National Action Framework in support of the Afghanistan National Development Strategy (2008-13) and the National Nutrition Plan (under development) in Afghanistan, and the National Multisectoral Nutrition Action Plan I (2013-17) and II (2018-22) in Nepal. Through analytical work, SAFANSI informed nutrition budgets in recent nutrition action plans in Afghanistan and Bangladesh. In Nepal and Sri Lanka, SAFANSI’s contribution to the nutrition action plans was through community-level implementation mechanisms, based on lessons learned from SAFANSI-financed pilots and knowledge products.

SAFANSI also informed other key national policies, such as the five-year plans in Bangladesh and Bhutan, the World Bank’s Systematic Country Diagnostic and Country Partnership Framework in Bangladesh,49 and regulatory reforms in India on milk fortification.

In Pakistan, SAFANSI facilitated provincial level FNS engagement upon the decentralization of the nutrition-related issues to provincial governments. The provincial nutrition policy guidance notes were critical in developing Bank-supported projects that address stunting in the four provinces.

Through knowledge products and innovative pilots, SAFANSI has contributed to or leveraged 32 Bank-financed projects worth $6.3 billion50 targeting more than 35.6 million beneficiaries.51 About one-third of SAFANSI financing has leveraged or stimulated Bank-supported projects through turnkey technical and operational support, including strategic policy guidance notes in Pakistan and design and implementation of critical FNS pilots in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. The SAFANSI-financed impact evaluation for the conditional cash

The Country Partnership Framework builds selectively on a country’s development program with a results-based engagement.

50 The amount represents the aggregation of the total costs of the Bank-financed projects that SAFANSI contributed to or leveraged and is not limited to FNS interventions or components only.

transfer pilot in Bangladesh provided key evidence for a scale up of the pilot through a Bank-supported project. The remaining two-thirds of SAFANSI financing has provided more general implementation support, such as impact evaluations (studies and/or design) and learning notes. Some 34 SAFANSI-financed projects contributed to, or leveraged, 32 Bank-supported projects. Additionally, five SAFANSI-financed projects informed national nutrition action plans or policies (see Annex 7 for World Bank projects linked to SAFANSI grants).

Beneficiaries of the SAFANSI-financed projects are the poor and vulnerable, and include pregnant and lactating mothers, children, small farmers, landless, and ethnic minorities in disadvantaged areas. In Sri Lanka, SAFANSI focused on the post-conflict northeast and the estate sector with Bank-financed agriculture and health projects. In Bangladesh and India, SAFANSI financed studies and pilots in indigenous/tribal or underserved areas, which influenced the agriculture and health projects in those countries (see Annex 7 for an overview of World Bank projects linked to SAFANSI grants). On infant and young child feeding, SAFANSI supported the development of a World Breastfeeding Costing Initiative tool, which was adopted by governments in South Asia and beyond (see Box 6).

Box 6: Tool to prioritize and budget support for breastfeeding

Mothers who exclusively breastfeed infants during their first six months reduce malnutrition, promote brain development, and give children a better chance to lead a healthy, productive life. Ideally, women begin breastfeeding within one hour after giving birth.

SAFANSI financed the World Breastfeeding Costing Initiative, which developed a financial planning tool for countries to prioritize, promote, and adopt breastfeeding policies. National policies typically include ensuring that women receive unbiased and accurate information about the health benefits of breastfeeding and are not subject to commercial pressures immediately after delivery. Other important steps create “baby friendly hospitals” that keep newborns physically close to their mothers to encourage breastfeeding, and training community volunteers to show nursing women how to add age-appropriate, complementary solid foods starting in a baby’s sixth month.

The WBCi tool is a user-friendly spreadsheet that helps countries budget and scale up services to support mothers based on local conditions. The initiative has been adopted by Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, and by 16 countries outside South Asia.

Communications notes and materials such as videos, communications strategies, conferences, and roundtables were important contributors leveraging the SAFANSI knowledge platform. SAFANSI evidence or analysis was presented at about 164 World Bank or partner-led knowledge sharing events. Nearly 1000 policymakers, government officials, or practitioners were trained for effective FNS program development, delivery and/or monitoring at in-country seminars and workshops. About 175 feature stories and blogs highlighted SAFANSI-supported activities, products, or knowledge. As SAFANSI focused on innovation during Phase II, more than 20 promising new concepts, technologies, and approaches were evaluated or tested with target groups, and each addressed gender issues.52

6. Lessons LearnedThrough regional projects, knowledge sharing events and other innovative interventions, SAFANSI has facilitated cross-country dialogue and learning. Despite these gains, regional cooperation remains a challenge. A follow-on nutrition program would present an opportunity for further collaboration, learning and exchange between countries to tackle cross border issues, common standards, trade, and other shared FNS- related challenges.

Although the overall funding amount available through SAFANSI was small, funding was flexible and catalytic. The well-targeted use of limited resources has had a significant impact on driving the FNS agenda in the South Asia region and developing a comprehensive body of research, data, and knowledge. However, the financing available was insufficient to support recipient-executed activities, which the program originally envisaged.

SAFANSI’s governance and call for proposals process are relatively simple and adequate for the size of the program. Lessons from SAFANSI I informed changes to the governance structure under SAFANSI II. The introduction of a Steering Committee, Technical Advisory Committee, and Secretariat staffed by the South Asia region and agriculture team strengthened linkages between the sectors and country priorities. This could be further strengthened through a more strategic approach to the allocation of funding in a future phase. In line with the World Bank’s trust fund reform agenda, fund allocation should be integrated to the extent possible in the annual World Bank work program planning process to maximize the strategic alignment between trust fund and World Bank financing. This will further coordinate SAFANSI program activities with sector, thematic, and country priorities.

A greater focus on communications under SAFANSI II improved knowledge sharing and increased the visibility of the program. The website, blogs, a monthly newsletter, and knowledge sharing events gave SAFANSI activities and results greater visibility. SAFANSI roundtables have been an important platform to engage policy makers, development partners, and other stakeholders in the region. A future program should build on and expand the communications platform developed under SAFANSI II.

Housing the SAFANSI Secretariat in the Bank’s Agriculture Global Practice contributed to breaking down silos and stimulating a multisectoral approach to nutrition. SAFANSI provided dedicated funding for nutrition in the agriculture space.

The implementation timeframe for the two phases of SAFANSI limited the types of interventions that could be supported and the results that could be measured. The independent evaluation of SAFANSI Phase I recommended that any subsequent phase have a longer timeframe of 5 to 10 years. Despite this recommendation, Phase II will have been active for not quite 5 years when it closes at the end of September 2019. The limited timeframe was not conducive for financing recipient-executed activities, which generally require a longer preparation and implementation period. Similarly, influencing upstream policy and anthropometric results takes time. For any subsequent phases of SAFANSI or an alternate FNS program, a longer implementation timeframe should be considered.

7 Conclusion - Looking Forward Over the past eight years, SAFANSI has been a catalyst in advancing the FNS agenda in South Asia by filling critical gaps in research, advocacy, data, and innovation. A primary focus has been the public and private sectors’ failure to deliver nutrition production technology to supplement and fortify food, support breastfeeding, diversify crops, and provide emergency nutrition. Much has been accomplished, but evolving and emerging nutrition issues mean that even more remains to be done.

SAFANSI has identified six FNS areas that need attention. These are (1) nutrition-sensitive agriculture, (2) private sector involvement in FNS, (3) child undernutrition, (4) gender and nutrition, (5) urban malnutrition, and (6) climate change.

SAFANSI’s successful milk fortification pilot program with the private sector in India is an example of an innovative approach that makes an impact. The pilot to add Vitamins A and D to milk, was scaled up to benefit more poor people through the Bank-financed National Dairy Support project. Similarly, SAFANSI has demonstrated how to encourage change by developing community-level FNS delivery mechanisms in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.

However, SAFANSI has not yet tackled emergency nutrition, consumer behavior, and how household dynamics affect family nutrition. A Social Observatory study of safety nets in Odisha, India after a cyclone found that participation in a Bank-financed rural livelihood development project did not prevent families from cutting spending on food. The impact of natural disasters on the household food basket, especially among pregnant and lactating mothers, needs further study.

Although there has been progress, undernutrition remains a huge challenge for the region. By expanding data, knowledge products, service delivery models, and the regional FNS portfolio developed in the last eight years, a follow-on nutrition program could address the unfinished and evolving FNS agenda. Such work would leverage broader development strategies such as the Bank’s Human Capital Project, its focus on Maximizing Finance for Development, and the Agriculture Global Practice report, “Future of Food: Shaping the Global Food System to Deliver Improved Nutrition and Health.”

The need for a follow-on program is based on a critical review of the existing research literature on South Asia nutrition and development and analysis performed for the Bank report, “Ending Undernutrition in South Asia.” Future work would address prominent gaps in evidence or where existing evidence is of poor quality, such as nutrition-sensitive agriculture and the private sector.

The six areas for future work are relevant to the current undernutrition problem and how the issue is expected to evolve based on socio-economic developments. Challenges include common claims that are untested, and existing evidence that is scarce, weak, or inconclusive. Insight for sound policy and program design is at present limited in these areas.

Nutrition-sensitive agriculture

The SAFANSI-financed study, “Regional Costing and Cost-Effectiveness,” demonstrated that scaling up key nutrition interventions, such as food fortification, in Bangladesh would prevent 500,000 cases of stunting among children under five. That health improvement would translate into a $5.6 billion increase in economic productivity over the lifetime of the treated children. The World Bank Agriculture Global Practice’s priorities,

35

as outlined in its report on the future of food, argues improved nutrition and health for better lives and well-being can be delivered by transforming the food system, which is defined as “the set of institutions, resources, stakeholders, and behaviors involved in the production, transformation, delivery, sale, and consumption of food.”53 This requires a combination of improved knowledge, sound policies, regulations, and investments across the production-to-consumption continuum.

In mainstreaming FNS into the transformative food system, the nutrition effects of agricultural diversification and other issues such as food safety should be assessed carefully. For example, the innovative use of information and communication technology, or ICT, could create a consumer feedback mechanism on food safety. At the same time, the FNS agenda should also be mainstreamed in policy dialogue on nutrition-sensitive agriculture. SAFANSI should engage with policy makers to move from calorie-focused policies toward nutrition-focused policies, as it did in Bangladesh’s second National Plan of Action on Nutrition.

Private sector in FNS

Governments have focused on improving agricultural production, which plays a key role in achieving food security and nutrition. Yet the broader and more complex system that moves food from a farm field to a consumer’s home is often ignored. The private sector largely dominates the food supply chain’s processing, storage, and retail marketing. Consumers buy food primarily in private markets. There is an opportunity to better understand constraints and opportunities of engaging with the private sector in nutrition value-chains. More information is needed about how a consumer interacts with markets, how food preferences and prices affect consumption, how government policies can enable or distort nutrition-sensitive food markets, and how to reduce food losses and waste.

Box 7: Private sector partnership fortifies milk for millions

The private sector is an important partner to improve nutrition in children, and SAFANSI is eager to explore more ways to work with companies and federations.

One of SAFANSI’s most successful programs has been a partnership with India’s National Dairy Development Board and Tata Trusts to explore how fortified milk can prevent wasting and stunting in children. In India, half of all children are deficient in Vitamin A and more than 70 percent of children under 5 lack enough Vitamin D.

SAFANSI worked with several milk federations, milk unions, and dairy producer companies to launch a pilot program delivering fortified milk in four targeted states. SAFANSI’s role included working behind the scenes to help establish regulatory standards for fortifying whole, low fat, and skim milk. One glass of fortified milk (320 grams) provides about one-third of Vitamin A and nearly half of Vitamin D recommended for daily consumption.

The pilot program was quickly expanded to other states in India by the World Bank and is expected to provide 2.7 million metric tons of fortified milk to 55 million consumers by June 2019.

It is crucial to understand how to work with the private sector to promote nutrition via safe and nutritious food, and to provide sanitation and safe water. This work includes regulatory and institutional changes needed to attract private investments. While this is a historically difficult area, successful interventions leveraging the private sector are valuable. The SAFANSI-supported milk fortification pilot in 16 states in India with Tata Trusts, dairy producer companies, and state-level milk federations will provide lessons on how to scale up and replicate a private sector engagement model in FNS in India and the region (see Box 7).

SAFANSI is supporting a sanitation micro-enterprise development pilot at the village level in Bihar, India, which will create jobs providing sanitation goods and services to self-help group members. The Bank’s new approach of Maximizing Finance for Development and use of “multiplier” funds such as the Power of Nutrition and Global Financing Facility are an opportunity for SAFANSI to participate in critical development financing trends.

Gender and nutrition

Over the past eight years, SAFANSI has supported several key regional and country level studies and pilots focused on gender. Despite a recognition of the importance of gender, this remains a lagging and critical area for intervention. Transforming the food system means analyzing the important role of women in linking the food system to household nutrition. As recommended by the regional flagship report on gender and nutrition, SAFANSI facilitated household and community support for feeding infants and young children in Afghanistan by engaging husbands and mothers-in-law. In Bangladesh, SAFANSI mobilized men as well as women and children in developing an information and communication technology-based learning program on nutrition. Studies on adolescent girls’ nutrition have been or are being carried out in Pakistan and Bangladesh, and delivery mechanisms will have to be developed or piloted in the future.

There are other gender dimensions in food system or nutrition value chains, such as feminization of agriculture, female labor market participation, and mothers’ employment. All dimensions should be assessed for more effective program design. Growing evidence suggests that the social status of poor women is a significant driver of undernutrition for both boys and girls in the region. The adverse effects of a woman’s low social status start before children are conceived, when future mothers are adolescents. Many parents demonstrate a bias for sons in investment choices, which may lead to girls falling behind in health and nutrition status in households where money is tight.

Key policy questions should look at: (1) understanding the evolution of the health and nutrition status over a woman’s life from adolescence onward; (2) the specific pathways through which a woman’s low social status produces poor child health and nutrition; and (3) the specific adverse conditions when girls fall behind their brothers in nutrition.

Child undernutrition

There is a continuing need to address child stunting and human capital development, in line with the priorities of the Bank’s Human Capital Project. SAFANSI has financed many knowledge products and pilots that focused on the first 1,000 days of child’s life and created feeding capacity for infants and young children in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, and Nepal. SAFANSI has also supported nutrition-informed budgets in Afghanistan and Bangladesh. However, countries in the region have made little progress in reducing wasting — a measure of acute malnutrition that results from inadequate dietary intake and sharply raises the chance of death.

37

Apart from Bhutan, Maldives and Pakistan, wasting rates in all other countries in the region were at or above 10 percent, which is quite high. While several South Asian countries are on course to meet the 2025 World Health Assembly target to reduce stunting, all South Asian countries are behind in meeting the target to decrease wasting. This is the case even though much of nutrition service delivery in the region takes the form of permanent or emergency services to prevent and treat wasting. Unlike stunting, empirical evidence sheds little light on the drivers of wasting, which are much more mixed. Specific policy-relevant focuses include understanding the drivers of wasting, better prediction of wasting, and testing interventions to prevent wasting.

Urban malnutrition

SAFANSI has financed many rural activities addressing the nexus of food production, diversification, and consumption to stimulate agriculture and rural development in South Asia. Because the prevalence of poverty has historically been higher in rural areas, SAFANSI should contribute to the development of transformative food systems and FNS service delivery in unserved areas through community mobilization.

At the same time, SAFANSI cannot ignore urban malnutrition. South Asia’s urban population has grown threefold over the 35-year period from 1980 to 2015, from 202 million (24 percent of the region’s total population) to 565 million (35 percent). Over the next 35 years, it is expected to double to an estimated 1.13 billion by 2050, transforming the region’s population to a majority of urban-dwellers (see Figure 6). While most of the urban population growth will occur in smaller cities and towns, South Asia is expected to have one-fourth of the world’s megacities by 2030. Urbanization offers an important opportunity to boost the overall income level in the region. The region’s urbanization comes with important risks, stemming from deficiencies in urban planning, regulation, infrastructure, and basic services. The risks can undermine the performance of governments and private markets in promoting the health and nutrition status of urban residents, including meeting increasing demands for food and nutrition products and services.

Rapid economic growth in cities is accompanied by a twin problem of undernutrition and obesity. There is a critical need to understand the variation in health and nutrition status in cities, and the drivers of, and barriers to, reducing undernutrition and tackling obesity. The implications of rapid growth of supermarkets, the role of large agribusiness, and the nutrition value chain of fortified food products on the nutrition outcomes of urban population should carefully be assessed and promote nutrition actions to counter urban malnutrition. The SAFANSI-financed project, Integrating Nutrition Promotion and Rural Development, tackled the issue of overweight school children and their parents in Sri Lanka through community-based awareness raising and action plan implementation at schools. The lessons learned could be applied to urban areas.

Climate change

Climate change is an important strategic area for the World Bank. In South Asia, climate change is predicted to greatly increase the extent and depth of child undernutrition by adversely affecting nutrient intake and health. There are multiple ways through which climate change can undermine nutrition in children and adults. Climate change could impair food production by reducing key agricultural inputs and farm land, and by transforming areas with surplus crops to areas of shortages. Climate change can lead to food loss, reduce nutrients available in plant-based foods, and increase mycotoxins in cereals. Climate change can heighten the risk of food-, water-, and vector-borne infectious diseases. It can spur large population movements that may heighten nutrition risk for migrants.

Proactive mitigation and adaptation measures can counter the negative effect of climate change on nutrition. A simulation exercise indicates that the number of malnourished children in poor countries will be about 10 percent higher in 2050 under a scenario of climate change with no mitigation than one with perfect mitigation. A third phase of SAFANSI could better understand the extent and nature of the relationship between climate change and nutrition status in the region.

The design of a future nutrition program would be consistent with national strategies, and developed in collaboration with development partners, World Bank Global Practices and the Bank’s South Asia region.
