Recognizing the critical role of nutrition in ensuring the health and well-being of the population, 4-H Nepal supported Janaki Rural Municipality and Thakurbaba Municipality in formulating their Nutrition Policy. These policies aimed to address nutritional challenges, improve dietary practices, and enhance the overall nutritional status of the residents.

Key Components:

1. Nutrition Education: Raise awareness about balanced diets and healthy eating through schools, health centers, and community events.
2. Local Food Production: Support local farmers, encourage backyard gardening, and promote access to fresh produce.
3. Maternal and Child Nutrition: Focus on pregnant women and breastfeeding support for better maternal and child nutrition.
4. Food Security: Establish food assistance programs for vulnerable populations during times of need.
5. Nutrition Standards: Implement nutrition standards in school meals and healthcare facilities.
6. Monitoring and Evaluation: Regularly track policy implementation and update based on feedback and emerging research.

By fostering collaboration, promoting awareness, and implementing evidence-based interventions, Janaki and Thakurbaba Municipalities aim to enhance community health and well-being through improved nutrition.
