Through #3R and compost-making training, we’re #transforming plastic bottles into useful products and waste into compost in the Raksirang and Kailash Rural Municipalities of Makwanpur District, Nepal. @BMZ_Bund @Welthungerhilfe @VivaconAgua @RRNNepal

Our panelists from @USAID @unicef_nepal @FCDOGovUK, Department of Water and Sewerage Management, Government of Nepal and @Sochai_YFN sharing their insights on 'Integrating Nutrition and WASH through Systems Thinking - Addressing the Causes of Malnutrition'.

"Development organizations should share their project learnings and data with the government to enable the adoption of good practices as a national program." – Dr. Sohan Sha, Vice Chair, Madhesh Province Policy and Planning Commission

"Food regulation should be part of strengthening the food system. Nutrition interventions must become a movement, focusing on women, children, and the private sector." – Dr. Bimala Rai Paudyal, Former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Government of Nepal

"More than 50% of the population is insecure in Nepal. Food and nutrition literacy, therefore, should be a cross-cutting issue and must be included in all the sectors." - Dr. Uma Koirala, Ex-president - CSANN, Professor of Padma Kanya College

"The private sector should be considered one of the major stakeholders in the discourse on food transformation, as it plays an indispensable role. About 90% of what is eaten daily is manufactured by the private sector." - Ms. Merina Ranjit, COO, Chaudhary Foundation, Nepal.

"Millets and other indigenous crop promotion is crucial when we talk about nutrition and food system transformation." - Dr. Ram Krishna Shrestha, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, Government of Nepal.

"It is ‘smart’ to invest in early child development to reap the demographic dividend and enable a more ‘prosperous’ trajectory of development that will benefit the workforce of the future". - Dr. Usha Jha, former member of the National Planning Commission, Nepal.

"Vision of the MSNP 3 is to end malnutrition and develop human capital for overall socio-economic development" - Dr. Usha Jha, Former Member, National Planning Commission, Nepal
