Centered on enhancing the capacity of health systems to deliver integrated nutrition and responsive care and early learning services, NuMERAL works to increase locally-led evidence generation and translation of evidence into practice. Proper nutrition, caregiving, and early learning are essential for long-term health, growth, cognition, academic achievement, and productivity. Countries worldwide are committed to improving these outcomes as part of their efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals, which include zero hunger, good health and well-being, and quality education. NuMERAL’s work is vital for strengthening policies and programs that promote better nutrition at the national, regional, and global levels.

The NuMERAL consortium is led by RTI International and works in collaboration with the African Population and Health Research Center, International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research; Bangladesh, and the University of California, Davis.
