Synopsis (short abstract) The United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) supports the mainstreaming of nutrition into national development plans and activities to strengthen agriculture, food, health, education and social protection systems, among other things. This guidance note helps integrating nutrition across the UNSDCF cycle. It is designed to be flexible and applicable in all phases of the Cooperation Framework, highlighting opportunities to integrate and strengthen the focus on nutrition throughout the process. The guidance note complements other existing tools developed by specialized United Nations’ agencies, programmes and funds, as well as by the UN-Nutrition Secretariat, and it can be equally utilized in countries under the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) or the UNSDCF.

    The CPF reviews the status of agriculture in Zambia and provides an analysis of sector-specific challenges and opportunities. Suitable areas for FAO intervention are identified and justified in accordance with FAO’s comparative advantages, GRZ priorities, UNDAF outcomes and FAO strategic objectives. It is supported by annexes, including i) CPF alignment with other policy documents and frameworks; ii) a results matrix; and iii) a matrix showing resource requirements. The process of developing CP F involved broad consultations with GRZ and other stakeholders in the agriculture sector including development partners. This process brought out areas of FAO’s comparative advantages which were reviewed to ensure alignment with agriculture sector national priorities.
