The 1,000 days between a womans pregnancy and her childs second birthday oer a unique window o opportunity to buildhealthier and more prosperous societies. The right nutrition during this time can have a proound, lie-changing impact on a

childs ability to grow, learn, and rise out o poverty and has a powerul, lasting eect on a countrys stability and prosperity.

Recognizing the critical importance o nutrition in early lie and the pervasiveness o the problem o malnutrition, thegovernments o Ireland and the United States, together with leaders rom around the world, launched the 1,000 Days Partnership

in September 2010 to:

Demonstrate increased stakeholder alliances, greater alignment to country-led nutrition strategies, and increased unding;

Show evidence o more children and mothers reached; and

Demonstrate impact on malnutrition indicators.

The 1,000 Days partnership has also served as a challenge to the global community to accelerate progress toward realizing theMillennium Development Goals (MDGs) by scaling up investments in nutrition.

Globally, 165 million children - 1 in 4 children under age 5 - are chronically malnourished1 .

Malnutrition is responsible or almost hal o all deaths o children under the age o 52.

Malnutrition can translate to a loss o as much as 8% o a countrys GDP3.

By scaling up access to just ten proven nutrition interventions, we can prevent 15% o all deaths ochildren under age 5, saving 1 million children per year 4.

Undernutrition remains one o the worlds most serious but least addressed problems.

And yet proven and low-cost interventions do exist. Today, we accept the 1,000 day

challenge to change lives and to change the uture. We must recognize that mothers and

athers and their households are at the heart o this change. We must build partnerships

to support them partnerships that bring together community organizations, the private

While much remains to be done, the 1,000 days between the September 2010 launch o the 1,000 Days partnership and June

2013 has brought about tremendous progress in mobilizing stakeholders to support country-led nutrition strategies and increase

investments designed to improve the nutritional status o women and children during the 1,000 day window. Since its inception,the 1,000 Days partnership has expanded to include over 80 partners rom civil society, academia, business and government allworking to:

Communicate the importance o the 1,000 days window or impact;

Advocate or greater action and investment in maternal and child nutrition; and

Catalyze partnerships among dierent sectors to scale up eorts to reduce malnutrition.

Commucg mpoc o 1,000 dy wdow o mpcIn groundbreaking research eatured in its maternal and child nutrition series in 2008, The Lancetmedical journal identied acritical window o time between the start o a womans pregnancy and her childs second birthday in which nutrition lays the

oundation or a persons lielong health, cognitive development and uture potential. This window or impact, later termedthe 1,000 days window, has revolutionized the way the world approaches the seemingly intractable problems o hunger andmalnutrition. By ocusing investments on improving nutrition or women and children, rom pregnancy to age two, much o the

serious, oten irreversible, damage caused by malnutrition can be prevented.

Doing so is also extremely cost-eective. Leading economists have argued that improving nutrition is one o the best investmentsthat can be made to achieve lasting progress in global health and development, estimating that every $1 spent on improvingnutrition can have as much as a $138 return on investment 9.

Over one million children under the age o ve in Zambia45%are stunted. With almost hal o its children chronically

malnourished, Zambia projects that it will lose an estimated USD $775 million in economic productivity over a ten year period.Recognizing malnutrition as both a serious public health problem and an economic issue, in 2013 the Government o the Republico Zambia launched a national campaign, the First 1,000 Most Critical Days Program (1,000 MCDP), and the Strategic Plan o the

National Food and Nutrition Commission.

The 1,000 MCDP aims to scale up proven nutrition interventions rom pregnancy to a childs second birthday to reduce childhoodstunting. The program ocuses on ve strategic areas: 1) policy and coordination or harmonization o programs; 2) priorityinterventions to reduce stunting; 3) institutional and human resource capacity building; 4) communications and advocacy; and

5) monitoring, evaluation and research. The Zambian Government is deeply committed to the success o 1,000 MCDP and haspledged to coordinate the program activities among ministries and properly resource activities to meet program goals. To ensure

its success, 1,000 MCDP also actively seeks to involve and oster ownership o the program across dierent sectors rom thecommunity to national levels and encourage greater cooperation and collaboration rom a variety o stakeholders rom dierent

The launch o the 1,000 Days partnership by the Irish and U.S. governments inspired civil society organizations in Ireland andthe United States to mobilize supporters and champions to bring attention to the critical 1,000 day window or impact. In June

2011, Bread or the World and Concern Worldwide hosted the rst event ocused explicitly on engaging civil society in the ScalingUp Nutrition movement. In the United States, Bread or the Worlds Women o Faith or 1,000 Days campaign involved Christiandenominations and womens civic groups dedicated to promoting greater awareness o maternal and child nutrition. In Ireland,

Concern Worldwide launched its 1,000 Days campaign to raise awareness and mobilize support across Ireland or the 1,000 daysmessage. This campaign is also giving women and mothers in Ireland a chance to connect in a meaningul way to women and

Guatemala suers rom the highest rate o child malnutrition in the Western Hemisphere and the ourth highest in the world:almost hal o Guatemalan children under the age o ve are chronically malnourished. The Government o Guatemala recognizes

that malnutrition is costly or their country not only in human terms, but also in economic terms. A study by the UN World FoodProgramme and the Economic Commission on Latin America ound that child malnutrition cost Guatemala over $3.1 billion in2004, which translates in to 11.4% o its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). When President o Guatemala Otto Prez Molina learned

that less than 1% o Guatemalas population believed their country had a problem with malnutrition, he instructed his entirecabinet to live in rural areas or a week with a amily acing chronic ood shortages and malnutrition. As word spread about the

Presidents directive, over 6,000 people joined rural amilies to understand the problem o malnutrition. The result was a tidalshit in attitudes, a whole-o-government Zero Hunger Pact initiative launched by President Prez Molina and a mobilization

campaign known as La Ventana de los Mil Das (The 1,000 Days Window).

The Zero Hunger Pact aims to reduce chronic malnutrition in children under ve years o age by 10% by the end o President Prez

Molinas term in 2015 and will prioritize the 1,000 Days window, implementing ten interventions or mothers and children duringthe rst 1000 days that have proven to be the most eective against chronic malnutrition and have a high cost-to-benet ratio.

The 1,000 Days partnership has harnessed high-level political leadership and the expertise o a broad range o stakeholders inorder to increase commitment to improve nutrition.

Through their engagement in the SUN movement, the Irish and U.S. governments and other 1,000 Days partners have supportedthe expansion o SUN to include 40 countries. Countries that join the SUN movement are committed to ensuring that programs in

all sectors o government are sensitive to nutrition and increasing coverage o proven interventions that improve nutrition duringthe 1,000 day period between a mothers pregnancy and her childs second birthday. Many countries involved in SUN have begunto develop plans to scale up nutrition eorts and meet the goals to reduce maternal and child malnutrition that they have set or

themselves.

In 2012, 1,000 Days partners worked to support the adoption by the World Health Assembly o the rst-ever global targets toimprove maternal, inant and young child nutrition. These global targets are helping to shape country and donor strategies to

reach greater numbers o women and children with nutrition interventions.

Globl tg o impov Ml, i d Youg Cld nuo by 2025:

1. Reduce by 40% the number o children under age 5 who are stunted.

2. Achieve a 50% reduction in anemia in women o reproductive age.

3. Achieve a 30% reduction in low birth weight.

4. Ensure that there is no increase in the number o children who are overweight.

5. Increase to at least 50% the rate o exclusive breasteeding in the rst six months.

6. Reduce and maintain childhood wasting to less than 5%.

These targets were endorsed by the 65th World Health Assembly in May 2012 as part o the World Health Organizationscomprehensive plan on maternal, inant and young child nutrition.

Within the United States and Ireland, there is a concerted eort to measure both the resources spent on achieving nutrition

impact and the results that are achieved. Both donors are active in the SUN donor group at country and global level and haveagreed to include standard reporting on nutrition expenditures in the annual SUN progress reports.

The U.S. government has amplied its commitment to nutrition through Feed the Future, the U.S. governments global hungerand ood security initiative, which aims to promote inclusive economic growth through agricultural development and improve

the nutritional status o women and children. Through Feed the Future, the United States also contributes to the New Allianceor Food Security and Nutrition, a shared commitment to achieve sustained and inclusive agricultural growth and raise 50million people out o poverty by 2022 by aligning the commitment o Arican governments to drive eective country plans and

policies or ood security; the commitments o private sector partners to increase investments where conditions are right; and thecommitments o the G-8 to expand Aricas potential or rapid and sustainable agricultural growth.

were going to keep ocusing on nutrition, especially or young children, because we know

the efects o poor nutrition can last a lietime -- its harder to learn, its harder to earn a

living. When there is good nutrition, especially in those thousand days during pregnancy

up to the childs second birthday, it means healthier lives or that child and that mother.

And its the smart thing to do because better nutrition means lower health care costs and it

means less need or assistance later on.

Tackling global hunger and under-nutrition in the 1,000 day window has been a central ocus o the 2013 Irish Presidency o the

European Union (EU). Under Irish leadership, the EU and its institutions and 27 Member States were urged to: step up eorts on

addressing maternal and child undernutrition; tackle stunting and wasting; and increase nancial support to partner countrieswith high burdens o undernutrition or implementation o national plans that scale up proven nutrition interventions. Puttingthese commitments into action, the EU and its 27 Member States adopted a new EU Nutrition Policy that enhances maternal andinant nutrition interventions and recognises the 1,000 day window o opportunity. Critically, under the Nutrition Policy, the EU

adopted a new Food and Nutrition Security Implementation Plan that holds countries accountable or implementation o policycommitments on undernutrition and ood insecurity.

and gave her small hand-tools to sow the land.

Advisors showed Adi how to harvest the crops and how to prepare a variety o nutritious oods or her children. She discovered

that she had enough vegetables or her own amily, plus extra to sell in the market so that she could earn additional income tobuy animal-source oods. Adi is now sharing her success story with neighbors and riends and even distributing seedlings so

that others in her community can grow their own vegetables. She plans to continue home gardening; to add new crops, such asapples; and to construct a well or irrigating her crops throughout the year.

One out o every three children under age 5 in Indonesiaover 7 million childrenis stunted. Recognizing that child

malnutrition is an enormous drain to the countrys long-term economic growth, the Government o Indonesia has decided totake action. According to Nina Sardjunani, Indonesias Deputy Minister or Development Planning, the physiological connectionsbetween diet and physical development have been known or a long time, but we are making the point that a childs health will

impact their skills development, their productivity, their income, and, ultimately, the economic growth potential o the country. In2011, the Government o Indonesia signed a $600 million compact with the U.S. Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC),13 which

is one o the largest compacts ever signed and the rst o its kind to ocus on improving nutrition as an investment in economicgrowth.

The $131.5 million Community-Based Health and Nutrition to Reduce Stunting Project is part o the MCC compact. The projectwill target approximately 6,000 villages in provinces where rates o stunting and low birth weight in inants and children up to

two-years-old are higher than national averages. Drawing on a growing body o international evidence on interventions to reducestunting, the project provides an incentives-based scheme to increase demand or tools to reduce stunting, while improving

the health sectors capacities to respond to increased demand and working with the private sector to address the root causes omalnutrition.

The Government o Indonesia joined the SUN movement through its own First 1,000 Days o Lie Movement, agreeing to be aleader in promoting nutrition as an economic investment. The objectives o the Indonesian First 1,000 Days o Lie Movement

mirror the global nutrition targets endorsed at the 2012 World Health Assembly.

Malawi has demonstrated a strong commitment to improved ood and nutrition security as exemplied by the Governmentswork in support o the SUN movement through its 1,000 Special Days National Nutrition Education and Communication Strategy(NECS) and National Export Strategy. By 2017, the NECS aims to reduce child stunting among children under two, to less than 20%through ocusing on community-based awareness and behavior change interventions. This approach uses mass and communitymedia, amily counseling, awareness-raising o local leaders, and capacity-building o rontline workers.

In 2013, the Government o Malawi joined the New Alliance or Food Security and Nutrition (New Alliance) and committed toworking together with local and international private sector partners and the G-8 to generate greater investment in agriculturaldevelopment, with the aim o achieving sustainable ood security outcomes, reducing poverty, and ending malnutrition andhunger. In line with the 1,000 Days Special NECS, Malawis New Alliance Cooperation Framework aims to reduce malnutrition bypromoting production and utilization o diversifed oods with high nutritive values and will scale up interventions that targetprevention o stunting.. At the time Malawi joined the New Alliance, 23 local and international companies had prepared and signedletters o intent describing their intentions to collectively invest over $120 million.
