This policy brief outlines key strategies to improve nutrition in Papua New Guinea, particularly in Simbu and Eastern Highlands, by strengthening nutrition-sensitive value chains (NSVCs). It calls for endorsement and financing of key national policies such as the National Food Security Policy and the National Pathway Framework for Food Systems Transformation. The document emphasizes building government capacity, multisector partnerships, and donor collaboration to scale up nutrition-sensitive agriculture. High-priority value chains include chicken, eggs, fish, and legumes, all critical for addressing child stunting and wasting in the Highlands.
