Focus Area 3.6 Gender equality and women’s empowerment across food systems
Sub-focus Area 3.6.3 Recognizing and addressing women’s nutritional status and deprivation
Recommendation Number: 3.6.3.a
Governments, intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations, development partners and other relevant stakeholders should acknowledge and advance the nutritional wellbeing of women and girls throughout the lifecycle, including through the provision of health, nutrition and other essential services. This can be done by promoting and supporting that national development strategies are informed by participatory gender and age analyses, and that women and girls throughout the lifecycle, with compromised nutritional status and higher levels of deprivation, access gender-responsive social protection programmes and benefits.
The identified documents have been grouped into four categories: UN evidence-informed documents, UN normative guidance documents, UN operational/technical guidance documents and other documents that have been published by non-UN bodies.
