USAID Advancing Nutrition, or USAID Promovendo a Nutrição, worked in Mozambique from August 2019 until the project's successful completion in March 2023.

  3. Support partners’ capacity to deliver quality multi-sectoral nutrition programming
  4. Support USAID Mozambique’s nutrition team and portfolio.
