    The Pakistan Integrated Nutrition Strategy document outlines a multi-year plan to address malnutrition in Pakistan through coordinated interventions. The goal is to have a nourished population that contributes to national development. Key strategic objectives include preventing and treating malnutrition among vulnerable groups, establishing a coordinating council, and strengthening institutional capacity. Interventions are prioritized and sequenced over the short, medium, and long term. Priority levels 1 and 2 focus on community management of acute malnutrition, infant and young child feeding practices, and micronutrient supplementation. Priority level 3 aims to scale up food fortification, promote access to nutritious foods, and integrate nutrition into education curricula. Progress will be monitored through logical frameworks.

    Conceptual integration: the agreement by all parties on the


    components of the package that will be necessary to solve
    nutritionals.
    Programmatic complementarity: the approach of each partner to
    contributes to solving or addressing a conceptually recognized
    component of the problem in a coordinated way
    Geographic convergence: unless partners are working in the same
    place at the same time, complementarity will not succeed, and
    synergy will be lost.
    Government ownership and leadership is crucial at all levels.
    Enhanced coordination and joint planning at the central, the
    Provincial and District level
    Priority for the most vulnerable group of population, such as
    pregnant women, newborns and children under five years, girls
