Publication launch - Nutrition-sensitive value chains: A guide for project design

3 December 2018, 9.00-10.30 CET at IFAD HQ – Oval Room and via webcast

The event will present the Nutrition-sensitive value chains: A guide for project design, a practical guide that describes a step-by-step approach for designing NSVC projects, drawing on the latest research and field-tested approaches in Indonesia and Nigeria. The event will also highlight the collection of materials IFAD has produced to support development of NSVC projects, including a technical Research Paper describing the underlying framework and practitioner-friendly summaries of the results of applying the approach in Indonesia and Nigeria.  

The guide's authors, Isabel de la Peña (Nutrition and Value Chain Specialist, IFAD-ECG Consultant) and James Garrett (Senior Research Fellow, Bioversity International) will present key features of the guide and the approach. IFAD colleagues who participated in the process of developing the guide will also describe their experiences.
