The main function of the Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement Secretariat is to coordinate efforts within the SUN Movement, and to track the success of the movement. The Secretariat seeks to ensure that SUN countries receive the support they need to achieve their nutrition objectives and provides coordination support to the different actors engaged in scaling up nutrition efforts. The work of the Secretariat is guided by the vision of the SUN Lead Group, members of which are high-level leaders committed to nutrition. Project activities include: (1) monitoring country progress in scaling up nutrition; (2) facilitating initial work with countries that are preparing to join the SUN Movement; (3) providing support for the organisation and functioning of the SUN Lead Group; (4) developing strategies for SUN resource mobilization; (5) conducting an independent evaluation of the effectiveness of the SUN Movement; and (6) developing a revised SUN Road Map to help SUN partners better coordinate efforts to support SUN country plans.
