The Scaling up Nutrition (SUN) Movement is a global effort to eliminate malnutrition, based on the principle
that everyone has a right to food and good nutrition. The Movement’s vision is to, by 2030, ensure a world free
from malnutrition in all its forms. 

Led by governments and supported by organizations and individuals – collective action ensures every child,
adolescent, mother and family can realize their right to food and nutrition, reach their full potential and shape
sustainable and prosperous societies. The ‘SUN approach’ encourages all supporters of the Movement to
leave ‘egos and logos’ behind, to align efforts and work together to support SUN countries’ national plans to
scale up nutrition, during the first 1,000 days – from a mother’s pregnancy to her child’s second birthday.
2020 marked the last year of the SUN Movement’s Strategy and Roadmap (2016-2020). Following wide
consultation across the Scaling up Nutrition (SUN) Movement, a new Strategy (2021-2025) was agreed by the SUN Movement Lead Group at their annual meeting, held 7 December 2020.

The Strategy puts emphasis on impact on nutrition at the country level and country leadership in addressing
all forms of malnutrition. This includes supporting nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive actions through
strengthened food, health and social protection systems, and with a focus on youth, gender equality and socioeconomic equity. Country leadership and country priorities need to be at the centre of the Movement’s work.

Countries will determine the institutional system for nutrition coordination that is right for their contexts and
provide political and technical leadership for action. The global system needs to gear up and align behind what countries wish to see happen. As part of these efforts, the Strategy aims to contribute towards achieving the goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
