The Bangladesh Integrated Nutrition Programme (BINP) represented the first large-scale government intervention in nutrition. The program began in 1995; it was followed in 2002 by the National Nutrition Programme (NNP) and is being followed up now with a sector wide health approach. Nutrition also features significantly in the draft poverty reduction strategy. All of this shows the commitment of the government of Bangladesh in continuing to address malnutrition, which continues to constrain economic growth in the country.
