Phase II of the "Together for Nutrition" project aims to respond to the urgent need to provide timely, improved, and globally indicative data to measure the unfolding effects of climate change on nutrition and nutrition on climate change. This project proposes to fill global knowledge gaps through a robust synthesis and consolidation of current evidence on the impact of climate change on nutrition. This is done through various causal pathways, providing a much-needed understanding of the impact on anemia, stunting, wasting, and other micronutrient deficiencies. This research and advocacy project seeks to prioritize policy-relevant evidence generation on mitigation and adaptation, translating this evidence into actionable recommendations and amplifying key messaging that ensures priority on nutrition policy and programs in shock mitigation efforts. It also aims to convene global experts to gather and synthesize accurate data to inform national and global nutrition policy and program priorities and ensure a gender equity lens. All project activities focus on the gendered impact on nutrition to generate gender-responsive solutions. Project activities include: (1) generating policy-relevant evidence on mitigation and adaptation; (2) translating the evidence into actionable recommendations; and (3) strengthening key messaging that ensures priority on nutrition policy and programs in shock mitigation efforts.

The Multilateral Organization Performance Assessment Network (MOPAN) aims to strengthen multilateral organizations’ contributions to overall greater development and humanitarian results.

MOPAN is a network of donors with a common interest in assessing the organizational and development effectiveness of the major multilateral organizations they fund. The MOPAN methodology launched in 2015, examines multilateral organizations across five areas: strategic, operational, relationship and performance management, as well as development effectiveness.

MOPAN’s findings: (1) generate relevant and credible information that MOPAN members can use to meet their accountability requirements; (2) support dialogue between donors, multilateral organizations and their partners at the country level on how to improve effectiveness and learning; and (3) respond to the recognized need for a common, comprehensive multilateral organization assessment system.

This project funds the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to establish or strengthen national regulatory infrastructure for nuclear security and radiation safety in 28 countries in the Indo-Pacific region.

This Project supports the Canadian community’s efforts to attract, retain and expand foreign direct investment (FDI) and is ultimately designed to strengthen the economy at the community level.

The Global nutrition report (GNR) is a multi-stakeholder initiative comprised of global institutions led by experts in the field of nutrition. This project aims to provide the best available data, in-depth analysis and expert opinion rooted in evidence to help drive action on nutrition where it is urgently needed. This project seeks to inform, shape, and inspire action with data and evidence on policy, practice and financing, which should strengthen accountability and progress in tackling poor diets and malnutrition globally. It also seeks to integrate gender in distinct ways to increase women’s representation in publications, panels, and governance bodies. It also aims to generate evidence on the disproportionate impact of malnutrition on women and girls. Project activities include: (1) synthesizing nutrition data and evidence through reports and articles; (2) hosting the Nutrition accountability framework, including the shaping, guidance, registration, and tracking of nutrition commitments by all stakeholders; (3) developing ambitious, evidence-based, and nutrition commitments; and (4) strengthening stakeholders’ nutrition commitments and informing their policies and actions with data and evidence.
