In its ongoing efforts to improve nutrition outcomes for its citizens, the Government of Somalia, under the Office of the Prime Minister and in partnership with HSDF, conducted a comprehensive landscape assessment and analysis of nutrition financing in the country. Using a multi-pronged approach— including desk and literature reviews, key informant interviews, and broad stakeholder consultations— the assessment identified key bottlenecks and opportunities to strengthen the nutrition financing system.
Through consultations with government stakeholders, development partners, CSOs, and multisectoral representatives, we validated key findings and co-developed tailored recommendations to address identified challenges and enhance the mobilization of resources more sustainably.
This collaborative effort is a significant step towards improving nutrition outcomes in Somalia. HSDF remains committed to supporting government initiatives across sub-Saharan Africa to elevate nutrition financing and outcomes.
The Finance Capacity Development Platform (FCDP), funded by Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN), aims to support country actors across sectors in building and strengthening their capacity to develop, prioritize, finance, and track nutrition-related actions.
