malnutrition and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is a tool to mobilise funds and align sectoral and cross-sectoral food and nutrition security (FNS) related programmes. The overarching goal of the CIP2 is to achieve improved food security and nutrition for all at all times by making food systems nutrition-sensitive and sustainable. Its strategic objective is to ensure availability, affordability and nutritional quality of foods, and that all people have access to a variety of safe and nutritious foods, and to the knowledge they need to make wise food choices for a healthy diet. It sets forth priority nutrition-sensitive investment programmes for each stage of the food value chain -‘from production to plate’- as well as emerging challenges to the food systems that impact diets and nutrition. Attaining the developmental goals that will make Bangladesh a middle-income country will require a transformational change implying a massive increase in mobilisation of resources, profound institution al capacity development and the much better integration and coordination of actions. The resource delivery mechanism will be mainstreamed with country’s policy and institutional systems. Coherence of initiatives will be ensured at the national and sub-national levels. Supportive guidance will be sought from the Food Planning and Monitoring Committee (FPMC), Bangladesh National Nutrition Council (BNNC) and related high-level governance mechanisms. The CIP2 represents a powerful tool in the hands of the Government to: (i) assess needs for additional financial resources required to achieve some of the key SDGs and to create a nutrition-sensitive food system that works to ensure food and nutrition security in a coordinated way; (ii) prioritise these invest ments; (iii) integrate and coordinate actions across sectors and ministries for better effectiveness; and (iv) mobilise resources as required and foster alignment of all sources of financing, including budget resources and contributions from Development Partners (DPs) behind a single, inclusive -but evolving investment plan which will prevent needs not being fulfilled and avoid same projects appearing in more than one government plan. As Bangladesh embarks upon its Seventh Five Year Plan (7FYP), the invest ments made towards solving hunger and malnutrition will reflect the complexities of the issue at hand. The CIP2 implementation will build on and provide input to monitoring of SDGs, the upcoming Nation al Food and Nutrition Security Policy (NFNSP), Second National Plan of Action for Nutrition (NPAN2), related strategies and action plans. The CIP2 proposes 13 investment programmes to improve food and nutrition security in an integrated way. It is solidly anchored in existing policies and programmatic frameworks and incorporates the priorities expressed by stakeholders, ranging from government agencies to civil society such as Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) or farmers’ organisations to the private sector. The total cost of the CIP2 is estimated at US$ 9.25 billion with US$3.6 billion still requiring funding. This financing gap amounts to US$2.4 billion while prioritising nutrition-weighted funding for nutrition impact. ix x CIP2 Investment programmes (in million US$) CIP2 Programmes by pillar Total Financing gap Nutrition-weighted financing gap* I.

Official Typewritten Text Official Typewritten Text Official Typewritten Text 1Second Country Investment Plan 1. Introduction Prioritising agriculture, food and nutrition security has been central to the Government of Bangladesh’s (GoB) development strategy since the birth of the nation and has yielded impressive results. The goals set in the 2006 National Food Policy (NFP) regarding the reduction of underweight and stunting of children under five and population level undernourishment have been achieved. Yet, these successes conceal critical numbers of people still suffering from the effects of poverty, hunger and malnutrition which the Government endeavours to address rapidly. The GoB recognises that addressing hunger and malnutrition should not only be a goal in itself but a means to achieve other development goals. Malnutrition in all its forms -undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, overweight and obesity- results in high economic and social costs. Nutrient deficiency in children affects school attainment in the same way that inadequate nutrition worsens the mental and physical productivity of the labour force, thereby decreasing economic growth. Other examples of the effect of nutrition on socio-economic development abound, and in its efforts to bring Bangladesh to the status of middle-income country, the GoB is fully taking this on board. Accordingly, it has embraced the global agenda set by the UN’s post-2015 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which, in their endeavour to eradicate poverty in all its dimensions, aim at ending hunger, achieving food security and improved nutrition, and promoting sustainable agriculture (SDG2). But it also acknowledges the need for nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive actions across the entire food system to achieve the 16 other SDGs. By joining the SUN (Scaling Up Nutrition) movement in 2011, the country also committed to intensify ing direct nutrition interventions and advancing nutrition-sensitive development, helping to build multi-stakeholder platforms across sectors, and aligning their programmes. It reaffirmed its commit ment during the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)/World Health Organi zation (WHO) Second International Conference on Nutrition (ICN2) in Rome in 2014 which sought to identify comprehensive solutions to address malnutrition, placing a strong emphasis on the role of food systems. The GoB also endorsed the six global nutrition targets and their indicators to be achieved by 2025 at the World Health Assembly (WHA) in 2012. The Bangladesh Second Country Investment Plan (CIP2) follows the First Country Investment Plan 2011-20151 (CIP1) whose development was prompted in response to a need to efficiently mobilise resources in the aftermath of the 2008 food price crisis. As Bangladesh embarks upon its Seventh Five Year Plan (7FYP), the investments made towards solving hunger and malnutri tion will reflect the complexities of the issue at hand. The CIP2 2016-2020 is integral to the multi-sectoral approach needed to tackle hunger and malnutrition and achieve the SDGs. It is a tool to mobilise funds and align sectoral and cross-sectoral food and nutrition security related programmes. The overarching goal of the CIP2 is to achieve improved food security and nutrition for all at all times by making food systems nutrition-sensitive and sustainable. Its strategic objective is to ensure availabili ty, affordability and nutritional quality of foods, and that all people have access to a variety of safe and nutritious foods, and to the knowledge they need to make healthy diet choices. It sets forth priority nutrition-sensitive investment programmes for each stage of the food value chain -‘from production to plate’- as well as emerging challenges to the food systems. Before describing the investment programmes and 1 The CIP1 was later extended to last until 2016.

It describes the process by which the CIP2 was developed and the guiding principles on which it is based. It then goes on to detail the institutional set up for the coordination and monitoring of the programme implementa tion and outlines the results framework. The cost of each programme and sub-programme is then set out. The annex provides further details on the consultations carried out, on the programmes and sub-programmes and on the monitoring and evaluation of the plan. It also provides details on the finan cial aspect of the programmes, including an inventory of the existing and proposed projects under different CIP2 programmes. The CIP2 was prepared by the GoB under the coordination of the Food Planning and Monitoring Unit (FPMU) of the Ministry of Food with contributions from a wide range of ministries, agencies and departments, donors, civil society, the private sector and NGOs, reflecting the breadth of the food systems approach adopted. 2 Second Country Investment Plan 2. Context Over the last three decades, Bangladesh has managed the feat of producing enough rice to keep up with population growth -which almost doubled to 160 million. In terms of calorie availability, it has achieved self-sufficiency. People’s economic capacity to access food has risen through a rapid decline in the poverty headcount -from 48.9% in 2000 to 23.2% in 20162 -, 90% of which is accounted for by agriculture3 and an increasing purchasing power even among the poorest. With regards to food utilisa tion and nutrition, the third dimension of food security, it also claims ‘the fastest prolonged reductions in child undernutrition in recorded history’4. Notwithstanding these impressive achievements, much remains to be done if Bangladesh is to ensure the food and nutrition security of its people and unlock their productive potential. Alarming numbers of people still suffer from hunger, acute hunger and seasonal hunger and the prevalence of child undernu trition is high, much above the WHO cut off levels of public health significance. While 2015 Millenni um Development Goals (MDGs) concerning the prevalence of undernourishment in the population and underweight for children younger than five were achieved, around 16% of the population remains undernourished and one third of young children are underweight. Stunting, whose causes begin in utero and continues for at least the first two years of postnatal life, and whose consequences are life-long diminished cognitive, educational and economic performance, poor health- and last across generations, continues to affect 37% of children under five. Concurrently, the prevalence of overweight and obesity is steadily rising, even among the poorer sections of the population, leading to a rise in non-communica ble diseases such as of diabetes, cardio-vascular diseases and certain cancers. The causes of malnutrition and hunger are wide-ranging and are exacerbated by a host of challenges that continue to afflict the country: low quality diets; the rapid growth of an already sizeable population which stretches existing resources; gender disparities in income, opportunities, education and health; climate change which further shrinks the natural resources available -habitable and arable land, sweet water, etc.-; and price volatility. In response to the rising need for food, agricultural growth has risen, albeit irregularly, over the last few years, reaching the target set in the CIP1. Specific efforts have been made notably through investments channeled through the CIP1, to improve water management and infrastructure for irrigation purposes5, but also to improve the quality of inputs and soil fertility6. The share of cropped area under irrigation steadily expanded over the course of the CIP1 for example, and agricultural credit disbursement soared. In a context where climate change is rapidly taking its toll on the country’s economy and agriculture, with among others, the fall in agricultural land availability at 0.45% per annum over the last decade, a new approach of intensive crop production that is both highly productive but also environmentally sustainable needs7 to be adopted. An eco-friendly approach is required which is adapted to the needs of smallholders, combines traditional methods and conservation agriculture with modern technology, and protects natural resources, while increasing productivity. Indeed, climate change and natural resource depletion place stress on food production and increase the volatility of supply. Also, animal source food supply contributes to climate change through increased carbon dioxide emissions. Over the CIP1 period, agriculture has clearly shown signs of diversification with the fisheries and livestock sector growing steadily towards improving nutritional security, a trend that needs to be main tained. However, crop diversification towards non-cereal crops and commercial high value crops has been limited. Efforts are needed to diversify crops -without compromising rice production given the population pressure. Agricultural diversification is key not only to ensure better quality diets, boost farmers’ incomes and value addition, but also ease the country’s agricultural trade deficit by producing tropical fruits and vegetables instead of importing them. 2 The 2016 figure is an interim BBS figure based on quarterly figures and therefore not using the same methodology used for previous years. It does, however, give a sense of the overall falling trend. 3 As found by the World Bank (http://www.worldbank.org/en/results/2016/10/07/bangla desh-growing-economy-through-advances-in-agriculture). 4 WFP (2016) Strategic Review of Food Security and Nutrition in Bangladesh 5 Programme 2 of the CIP1 6 Programme 3 of the CIP1 7 Such as the ‘Save and Grow’ approach advocated by FAO since 2011 3Second Country Investment Plan Overall, farming systems can only be transformed from semi-subsistence to more productive and com mercial ones by creating less fragmented, more competitive supply chains that respond to quality stand ards and include those that are usually excluded, women in particular. The CIP1 Programme 6 concen trated on building new growth centres also prompted the spontaneous growth of centres through private means. Private sector participation needs to be further stimulated along the value chain with invest ments in infrastructure building and maintenance such as markets or roads. For the many still unable to access adequate diets for lack of resources and income making opportuni ties, social protection that is suited to their circumstances will need to ensure their adequate FNS. Groups temporarily affected by disasters must be dealt with differently than for example vulnerable elderly people with no means to provide for themselves, abandoned women or disabled people. While answers are needed to immediately tackle the problem, longer term solutions also need to be identified. Further down the food value chain comes the challenge of translating the consumption of good quality diets into efficient utilisation of the nutrients ingested which is still threatened by the consumption of unsafe water, poor sanitation and hygiene practices. Diarrhea is still a frequent phenomenon and the supply of safe water for domestic use has remained static despite efforts8. With the accelerating pace of urbanisation, slums are bourgeoning bringing with them the water and sanitation challenges associated with very high density urban environments. Therapeutic and supplementary feeding as proposed in the CIP19 also needs to continue to remedy enduring acute nutritional deficits in the short-run. While there is enough evidence to establish desirable dietary patterns that are beneficial for preventing malnutrition in all its forms, dietary guidelines have not been accompanied by desirable changes in the dietary patterns. Trans fat intake is increasing and ultra-processed foods and sugar sweetened beverages in diets are on the rise. Food wastage at all stages of the food supply chain is a factor that needs to be tackled if the country wants to meet the food and nutrition needs of its people. FAO estimates that up to a third of the food produced is never consumed worldwide. The nutritional value of the food that makes it onto the plate needs to be maximised by adapting the treatment and transformation of food post production. Measures to reduce waste and losses at production, marketing and distribution level are also required. The country also faces a substantial challenge in ensuring that the foods available are safe for consumption. The Food Safety Act of 2013 sets the legal framework to solve this problem, but its implementation will require a lot of strengthening of capacities, a review of the standards and an enhanced coordination between all stakeholders. To respond to these challenges, the CIP2 proposes a series of investment programmes to improve food and nutrition security in an integrated way. It is solidly anchored in existing policies and programmatic frameworks as detailed in Section 8 and incorporates the priorities expressed by stakeholders, ranging from government agencies to civil society such as NGOs or farmers’ organisations to the private sector. The CIP1 was successful in its role of mobilising funds towards the implementation of the NFP. Its periodic monitoring allowed for a regular and dynamic review of the country’s needs making the Coun try Investment Plan (CIP) a ‘living document’. However, the food systems approach adopted for CIP2 means that implementing the plan will be a complex task given the wide range of actors across sectors, processes and linkages between them that will need to provide feedback through the annual monitoring process. The Government’s institutional and governance framework will need to be ready for this challenge and capacities to carry out these tasks will need ever more strengthening in this respect. 8 See Programme 12 of the CIP1 9 Programme 10.3 4 Second Country Investment Plan 3. The CIP2: a powerful tool to achieve the country’s development goals Bangladesh can only achieve the medium and long-term goals set in the National Food Policy, the Seventh Five Year Plan, its Vision 2021 and the 2030 SDGs if it is able to mobilise adequate financial resources, prioritise investments and use domestic and external resources effectively. To this effect, finance is recognised by the SDG agenda as the first of the five ‘means of implementation’. SDG 17 aims at strengthening these means of implementation and target 17.3 aims to ‘mobilise additional finan cial resources for developing countries from multiple sources’. The 2030 agenda refers to the Addis Ababa Action Agenda on Financing for Development, adopted in July 2015, in which countries re-af firm that they ‘remain committed to further strengthening the mobilisation and effective use of domestic resources’ and that they ‘recognise that significant additional domestic public resources, supplemented by international assistance as appropriate, will be critical to realising sustainable development and achieving the sustainable development goals’. Attaining the developmental goals that will make Bangladesh a middle-income country will require a transformational change implying a massive increase in mobilisation of resources, profound institution al capacity development and the much better integration of actions. The CIP2 represents a powerful tool in the hands of the Government to: (i) assess needs for additional financial resources required to achieve some of the key SDGs and to create a nutrition-sensitive food system that works to ensure food and nutrition security in a coordinated way; (ii) prioritise these investments giving precedence to the most nutrition-sensitive ones; (iii) integrate and coordinate actions across sectors and ministries for better effectiveness; and (iv) mobilise resources as required and foster alignment of all sources of financing, including budget resources and contributions from Development Partners (DPs) behind a single, inclu sive -but evolving- investment plan which will prevent needs not being fulfilled and avoid same projects appearing in more than one government plan. The ‘SDGs Needs Assessment and Financing Strategy: Bangladesh Perspective’10 provides a well-de fined work plan that highlights all the actions necessary to attain significant progress in the SDGs in Bangladesh. As per the 7FYP extended growth scenario, the aggregate GDP at constant 2015-2016 prices for the period 2017-2030 would be Taka 498,900.3 billion11. Estimates of annual resource gaps available in the strategy provide an opportunity to highlight programme priorities and government policy interventions as in this case, those relevant to nutrition-sensitive food systems. 10 General Economics Division, Planning Commission, GoB.

A nutrition-sensitive food systems approach The CIP1 built on the 2006 NFP which constituted a fundamental shift in acknowledging the compre hensive nature of food and nutrition insecurity by focusing on three objectives to ensure dependable sustained food security for all people of the country at all times, adequate and stable supply of safe and nutritious food, increased purchasing power and access to food by all, and adequate nutrition for all individuals, especially women and children. While the overall goal of the CIP2 remains the same, the approach taken is to consider the food system in its entirety i.e. a system ‘that embraces all elements (environment, people, inputs, processes, infra structure, institutions, markets and trade) and activities that relate to the production, processing, distri bution and marketing, preparation and consumption of food and the outputs of these activities, includ ing socio-economic and environmental outcomes’12 (Figure 1). This approach is better suited to the 2012 Committee on World Food Security definition of food and nutrition security that has been widely adopted following ICN2: ‘Food and nutrition security exists when all people at all times have physical, social and economic access to food, which is consumed in sufficient quantity and quality to meet their dietary needs and food preferences, and is supported by an environment of adequate sanitation, health services and care, allowing for a healthy and active life.’ The food systems approach acknowledges the substantial overlaps and interlinkages between different components of the food system. For example, the way a household consumes will be influenced by its knowledge of nutrition, its preferences and cultural practices, but also by market prices and advertise ments by big companies. This approach goes beyond the traditional linear approach where producers supply food to the food processors. Producers can also be consumers and involved in post-harvest processing. They may belong to a vulnerable group that is supported, or needs to be, by social safety nets. Food systems thus involve multiple interactions between different actors and stakeholders involved at different stages of the food value chain13 that evolve in a complex setting -institutions, processes, natural environment, etc.- that can be influenced to enable more favourable FNS outcomes (Figure 1). A good understanding of these linkages is important to identify entry points for nutrition-sensitive investments along the food system that can trigger structural changes that will result in positive nutri tion-related outcomes. This identification and prioritisation of investments towards the achievement of FNS also need to acknowledge the need for environmental, economic and social sustainability as embedded in the SDGs. There are many pathways to adjusting agricultural strategies to improve nutrition outcomes. Providing information to farmers on the existence of crops that will benefit diets in bringing food and nutrient diversity that may be profitable to them, or by breeding animals that are rich in key micronutrients, are some of them. Actions that can retain the nutritional benefits of food can also be incorporated in programmes relating to post-harvesting and preservation activities. For instance, improved drying techniques can prevent contamination of foods. Certain ways of processing or preparing foods can add or decrease their nutritional content. There are also many ways to rendering social protection programmes nutrition-sensitive: targeting the most nutritionally vulnerable is one, but it could also be making women the recipients of benefits since they are shown to be more inclined to spend financial resources on the health and nutrition of family members compared to their male counterparts. Food systems can also affect food safety, health, food prices, incomes and women’s access to productive resources, all of which influence nutrition. 12 As defined by the UN High Level Task Force of Global Food and Nutrition. 13 The cross-references between the different programmes proposed under the CIP demonstrate these linkages. 6 Second Country Investment Plan 7Second Country Investment Plan By prioritising projects that are nutrition-sensitive over those that are nutrition-specific or merely support nutrition14, this document endeavours to guide Government and DP spending over the life-span of the CIP2 towards projects that will directly impact the nutritional outcomes of the country. This nutrition-sensitive food systems’ approach adopted in the CIP2 will help in shaping the upcoming National Food and Nutrition Security Policy (NFNSP) that is to be formulated and approved by 2019.

Preparation of the CIP2 To succeed to the CIP1, the 7FYP requires the CIP2 to be prepared to cover the 2016/17 to 2019/20 fiscal years. To this effect, in June 2016, a notification was issued by the Government for the Technical Working Groups (TWGs) to begin the process. The background work towards its preparation was initiated in July 2016 with a series of 32 meetings by the TWGs spanning a period of six months. During these meetings, the decision was taken to shift from a focus on the three objectives of the NFP (availa bility of, access to and utilisation of food) to five areas that cover all aspects of the food value chain ‘production to plate’-as well as all the challenges to the food systems, namely: 1. Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets 2. Post-harvest transformation, value addition, nutrition and supply 3. Improved dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation 4. Enhanced access to social protection and safety nets and increased resilience 5. Strengthened enabling environment for achieving food and nutrition security and cross-sectoral issues. In parallel, six background papers were commissioned to national technical experts to provide an analytical narrative of the progress observed in the areas of investment identified by the Food Policy Working Group (FPWG), flag issues and provide actionable recommendations to inform the develop ment and implementation of the CIP2. The pillar on ‘Strengthened enabling environment for achieving food and nutrition security and cross-sectoral issues’ gave rise to two separate papers, to better reflect the heterogeneity of the issues it covered, namely: • Improved food safety and quality and reduced food losses and waste • Governance, cross policy implementation and FNS information. In April 2017, the authors of the papers presented their findings to FPMU officials and the Technical Assistance Team (TAT) of the Meeting the Undernutrition Challenge (MUCH) project which supports the GoB in its work on the NFP and CIP. Based on the feedback from the first in-house consultation, a revised set of draft thematic background papers were prepared. These background papers provided the technical context and foundation to the CIP2. The TWG meetings and papers led to the identification of 13 programmes for investment. These programmes and the contents of the sub-programmes were refined through an extensive consultation process. Following the identification of programmes and sub-programmes, government agencies were requested to identify current projects and potential projects that should fall under the CIP2. This process was facil itated by FPMU under the guidance of the Director-General (DG) of FPMU and leadership of the Secre tary, Ministry of Food. The consultation process Consultations were held across the country using different approaches and venues -villages, universi ties, upazila offices- to maximise the feedback received from different stakeholders. About 400 individ uals -around 20% of them female- participated to these events. Representatives from 18 ministries/divi sions’ agencies and departments, and 26 organisations from Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), the private sector, DPs and the United Nations (UN) attended. Table 1 provides the detail of the participat ing institutions. 8 Second Country Investment Plan 9Second Country Investment Plan A first consultation was held on the 9th of May 2017 with the participation of FPMU, the TWG, the Thematic Teams (TTs), the Bangladesh National Nutrition Council (BNNC), the authors of the back ground papers and the MUCH TAT. The main objectives of the consultation were to: explain the CIP context; share the framework and objectives, CIP methodology and development; engage in an open discussion to solicit feedback on the approach and papers; and elicit questions on policy priorities that could serve as a basis for questions for key informants during upcoming field consultations. Over two weeks in May 2017, ten consultations took place across five divisions of the country (see Annex 1 for details). These meetings included farmers, local leaders and villagers, local government officials from Food Security and Nutrition (FSN) relevant ministries at district and upazila levels, NGOs and academic faculty members. In the consultations involving local government officials, after an introduction explaining the background to the CIP, the purpose and the methodology of the exercise as well as the importance of taking a nutrition-sensitive approach by FPMU officials with support by FAO, remarks were provided by special guests from the relevant district. The attendees were then randomly divided into groups to identify priorities for the CIP2 for each of the broad areas of invest ment previously identified for the CIP2 by the TWGs in the context of their region. A set of questions were given to them to guide them through the process. The FAO team and FPMU officials facilitated these parallel sessions. A representative from each group was then asked to present the main points identified in a plenary, before opening the floor up for discussions. In sessions with farmers and villagers, less emphasis was placed on formally presenting the rationale for the CIP2 and discussions took place with the whole group. Explicit efforts were made to elicit womens' point of view. The session held at the Bangladesh Agricultural University in Mymensingh which brought together accomplished academics from disciplines covering a broad range of topics related to food systems was Table 1.

In this case, following an introduction of the rationale behind the consulta tions, participants were grouped according to their specialty and asked to discuss specifically the draft list of CIP2 programmes and sub-programmes already prepared. Some of the proposed programmes and sub-programmes were challenged while gaps were also identified. The consultation held with the private sector in July 2017 was organised around three broad discussion points: i) Does the draft CIP2 adequately address the development strategies and priorities concerned with the private sector in terms of achieving food and nutrition security in Bangladesh? What are the missing elements or sub-programmes? Business opportunities? Win-win solutions? ii) How can the ongoing and planned investment activities and projects of the private sector be incorporated in the new CIP to better depict the real situation of investment in food and nutrition security in Bangladesh? iii) How can we better achieve food and nutrition security in collaboration with the private sector? What would be the concrete steps necessary to make the private sector involved more in policy dialogue and coordination with other multi-stakeholders, including government, CSOs and resource partners? One final consultation was held with the DPs, UN agencies, CSOs and academia in July 2017 to elicit their views on the draft of the CIP2. The following questions were put to the participants: i) Does the CIP2 draft adequately address the government’s development strategies and priorities concerned with DPs, UN, CSOs, research institutions and academia in terms of achieving food and nutrition security? ii) Which area of the CIP2 would your agency most likely provide support or contribute to? iii) How can the Government better achieve food and nutrition security in collaboration with its partners: DPs, UN, CSOs, research institutions and academia? What would be the concrete steps necessary to strength en the engagement of all the parties/stakeholders in policy dialogue and coordination? Based on their comments, as relevant, modifications were made to the draft of the CIP2. The Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture held in 2016 helped to conceptualise the CIP2 and paved the way for nutrition-sensitive approaches to be taken into consideration by the CIP2. Likewise, discussions held during the Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Social Protection held in 2017 provided suggestions and comments incorporated in the final CIP2 version. Outcomes of the consultations By ensuring that stakeholders’ views are reflected in the CIP2, the consultations contributed to building ownership, making it a country-led programme, one of the 2009 Summit on Food Security Rome Principles which the international community endorsed as governing guidelines for FNS interventions. The consultations also reiterated some of the principles that guided the CIP1 and put forward additional ones, reflecting emerging priorities (see Section 6). They also confirmed some of the key programmatic issues identified in the TWG meetings and in the background papers, and uncovered additional ones. Finally, they provided the elements needed to develop the sub-programmes and priority investments required to achieve FNS as detailed in Section 717 . 17 The detail of the issues that were flagged in the consultations and suggestions for priority investments is reported in Annex 2 and are synthesised in Annex 3 where they are also juxtaposed with the corresponding programme and sub-programme. 10 Second Country Investment Plan 6. Guiding principles of the CIP2 Underlying the implementation of the CIP2 are a series of guiding principles which characterise the terms by which the GoB, the DPs and all other food system stakeholders -the private sector, NGOs, farmer organisations, consumer groups, researchers- will work to achieve the CIP2 goal. Policy and institutional coherence The CIP2 provides a clear framework with common objectives that stakeholders can align to. It is anchored in existing national policies and encourages policy coherence and coordination with related policy frameworks, programmes and monitoring tools, in line with the principles agreed to at the Fourth High-Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness in Busan in 2011. Its delivery mechanism will be main streamed with the country policy and institutional systems. Efforts will also be made to ensure coher ence of initiatives at the national and sub-national level. Supportive guidance will be sought from the FPMC and BNNC. Resource mobilisation The CIP2 galvanises investments towards country’s most urgent needs as defined jointly by stakehold ers and encourages investment partnerships. It can help reduce duplication of efforts and allows devel opment cooperation to be more predictable thus allowing for a more efficient government planning. It acknowledges the existence of other related investment plans on nutrition, climate change, etc. and seeks to build complementarities with them, as applicable. In particular, synergy will be established with the Second National Plan of Action for Nutrition (NPAN2), the National Social Security Strategy (NSSS) and the Bangladesh Environment, Forestry and Climate Change Country Investment Plan (2016-2021). A nutrition-sensitive food systems approach The CIP2 adopts a nutrition-sensitive food systems approach to encapsulate the most urgent needs for investment along the food value chain (see Section 4). Nutrition must be rooted in local food systems based on food sovereignty, small-scale producers, agro-ecological principles, sustainable use of natural resources, local seeds and livestock breeds, traditional knowledge and practice, local markets, guaran teeing sustainable and resilient biodiversity as well as diversity of diets18. By putting nutrition at the centre, it also stresses its commitment to the SUN and Renewed Efforts Against Child Hunger (REACH) initiatives. Concomitantly, it involves all sectors -18 ministries and divisions-, DPs, private sector agents and civil society stakeholders whose involvement is needed to achieve food and nutrition security for all at all times. Inclusiveness, participation and dialogue for a ‘living document’ In keeping with the CIP1, the CIP2 endeavours to be a collaborative effort from inception to implemen tation to monitoring. Ensuring that all stakeholders, including those at sub-national level such as farm ers’ organisations, participate in continuous dialogues throughout the life of the CIP2, can improve its effectiveness, governance and accountability as well as the consistency of its approaches across the country. Such involvement in processes can also encourage the private sector or NGOs to mobilise their own resources to contribute to the implementation of the CIP. The annual monitoring reports of the CIP allow for an integration of improvements and adaptations that may arise from exchanges between stake holders or from emerging issues, making the plan a dynamic ‘living document’. In addition to this, the gradual move of focus from process-orientation to result-orientation provides an objective basis to evaluate overall performance of the ministry/division at the end of the year which is in line with the Annual Performance Agreement of the Government. 18 ICN2 (2015) Report of the Joint FAO/WHO Secretariat on the Conference 11Second Country Investment Plan Sustainability In line with the CIP1, the CIP2 is designed and is to be implemented in a way that ensures coherence with the national and international policy and strategy landscape, quality, impact but also sustainability. All projects must be environmentally sustainable but also, to the extent possible, contribute to mitigat ing the effects of climate change. This issue of sustainability concerns agricultural practices but also consumption patterns that may be promoted as part of the CIP2. Sustainability of projects should also be understood in terms of their ability to sustain their effects beyond the life of the project for a long-term impact. Focus on women’s empowerment Women’s empowerment and gender equality are at the nexus of the agriculture, nutrition and health sectors. Women play an essential role along the food system value chain and in the nutrition of their families. They often have a say on which crops and varieties to grow, eat, and sell. They are increasingly active as labour -paid or unpaid- for pre-and post-harvesting activities e.g. planting of seedlings and saplings, irrigation, harvesting, threshing, storing seeds, nursery management, jute extraction, vegetable plantation, horticulture, preparation of bio and compost fertiliser. With the rapid ‘feminisation’ of agriculture, giving women farmers adequate access to assets such as land and inputs, training but also women-friendly markets are essential. Women also mostly manage household food preparation and consumption, making them ideal targets for nutrition-specific and sensitive programmes that can provide adequate and healthy food especially to children in their formative years. As the bearers of children, their own nutritional status matters in providing the nutrients required for brain development, healthy growth and a strong immune system to babies in the womb and while they are being breastfed. A final consideration are the trade-offs in the allocation of time to the dual productive and reproductive roles of women. More time spent on the farm or work place will result in less time spent raising children which may negatively affect children’s nutritional status unless effective alternatives for child care can be found. Despite their critical and potentially transformative role in agriculture growth, women contin ue to be limited in their access to resources. The CIP2 must contribute to their empowerment so that they can achieve their full potential. Targeting of the most vulnerable Adequate emphasis must be put on reaching the most vulnerable strata of the population with effective targeting and prioritisation mechanisms put in place. This includes women and children but also marginalised minorities and populations most vulnerable to the effects of climate change and geograph ical remoteness. In particular, the South of the country is experiencing a higher incidence of cyclones and storm surges, and the coastal belt suffers from salinity intrusion. In the North, extreme temperatures and droughts are arising challenges. Loss of land due to river erosion is bringing new migrants to the capital who live in poor or inadequate hygiene conditions and have limited access to clean water, which has dire consequences on their nutritional status. Enhanced partnerships with emphasis on Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) Partnerships between stakeholders will be encouraged for a better performance of the CIP2. Collabora tion may be in the form of information and knowledge sharing but also between the private sector and the Government or DPs. Bangladesh pioneered PPPs in South Asia in the 1990s and such mechanism should be embraced as an effective mechanism to deliver actions under the CIP2. To this effect, the GoB has put in place a conducive legal framework19 and is looking to build strong bilateral relationships with other governments to develop and upgrade large public infrastructure assets in partnership with other countries through PPPs20 . While actual PPP budgets cannot be included in the CIP2, projects working to develop concepts, policies, design, technically assist and generally facilitate and promote PPPs will be encouraged. 19 Through the Bangladesh Public Private Partnership Act 2015 which was specifically passed by Parliament as part of the Vision 2021 goal to ensure a more rapid, inclusive growth trajectory, and to better meet the need for enhanced, high quality public infrastructure services in a fiscally sustainable manner. 20 As set out in the Policy for Implementing PPP Projects through Government to Government (G2G) Partnership, 2017. 12 Second Country Investment Plan Cross-sectoral partnerships may be facilitated by third parties: for example, the SUN Movement helps address issues of conflict of interest in such partnerships to clarify rules of engagement of all partners and avoid conflicts of interest. This is essential if the private sector is to be involved in solving the prob lem of food insecurity and under- and malnutrition. Successful partnerships allow for the comparative advantage of different stakeholders to be exploited and identify the financial and incentive arrange ments that align the interest of all parties. The rapid development in recent years of social enterprises whereby the private sector engages in activities that to contribute to poverty reduction should be tapped into, while also adopting an Inclusive Market Approach (IMD) where emphasis is put on making markets work for the poor. Embrace innovation, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and scale up The CIP2 will continue to encourage investments in innovation and new technologies for greater impact on food and nutrition security. The role of ICTs as foreseen by the GoB in its promotion of a ‘digital Bangladesh’ will be embraced for example through GIS-based soil mapping system to provide informa tion relating to crop suitability, land zoning, nutrient status and fertiliser or the creation of information tele-centres to deliver information to farmers. Efforts to monitor public food stock through computer ised means should also be stepped up for more effective planning by the GoB, notably with respect to its Public Food Distribution System. Emphasis will be placed on rapidly scaling up innovations that have been found to be successful. 13Second Country Investment Plan 21Close to 90% of farm households are small or marginal and farm between 0.0.5 and 2.49 acres. 7. The CIP2 programmes This chapter describes the 13 CIP programmes: their expected outputs, the justification for the programme in question, the priority interventions by sub-programme and the recommendations for implementation. Table 2 summarises the information and indicates the agencies responsible for the implementation of each of the programmes. OUTCOME I: Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets Programme I.1. Sustainable intensification and diversification of crop-based production systems Expected programme aggregate output: The use of agricultural land to provide affordable and healthy diets to all is optimised by enhancing overall productivity and growing high value and nutritious crops in a sustainable way that is resilient to climate change. Justification for this programme: In the context of a rapidly growing population and shrinking arable land and ever more erratic weather patterns, crop-based production needs to be stimulated to improve productivity of staples while releasing land for other crop and non-crop foods that are high-value, nutri tious and increase the diversity of diets. The research and technology development that can provide these improvements must generate sustainable solutions that will not negatively impact on soil fertility and can work in the context of the changes happening due to climate change. Crop production also needs attention because a large number of people, many of them among the poorer segments of vulnera ble sections of the population21- rely on it for their livelihood. Priority interventions I.1.1. Enhance agricultural research and knowledge and technology development for a more productive, diverse, sustainable and nutrition-sensitive agriculture Research and technology development is required to support the development of sustainable high yield ing and high-value varieties that make efficient use of inputs -hybrid, green super rice-; of varieties adapted to different ecosystems and ensuring year-round availability of nutritious foods -short maturing Aus and Aman rice, summer season hybrid vegetables, lean and year-round season fruits-; and of varie ties that are naturally rich in key elements such as iron and zinc or are biofortified. Steps will be taken to develop the cultivation of crops such as khesari, mugbean, watermelon, vegetables, cowpea, sesame, sunflower, groundnut, sweet gourd, chilli, sweet potato, barley, soybean, sorghum, chewing varieties of sugarcane, sugar beet and coconut which are suitable for coastal areas and marine islands. Research is also needed to ensure not only greater yields but also to develop crops that have good nutritional quali ties. Efforts are needed to develop gender-sensitive technology given the role of women in agriculture that can, for example, reduce their work load and free up their time for other household activities. Indeed, women’s empowerment is paramount under this programme given their potential role in agriculture. Organic farming along with the use of crop residues, compost, and animal waste, especially of horticultural crops, should be further developed and expanded for domestic but also export markets (see Programme V.1.2). Finding the underlying causes of, and possible solutions to, the yield gap is also needed. Investments will be required to strengthen the capacities and the infrastructure of the institu tions that are to carry this research and develop technologies. I.1.2. Develop technologies, including biotechnologies, and measures to adapt agricultural systems to climate change Crops will need to be adapted to unfavourable ecosystems and climate-smart agricultural methods expanded to respond to the regional effects of climate change on food and nutrition security through climate-smart technology development, dissemination and adoption down to the farmer’s level. New 14 Second Country Investment Plan high-impact technologies, such as green biotechnology, biofortification, and nanotechnology including Green House Gas (GHG) emission reducing technology where appropriate, will be used to boost productivity and enhance the nutritional qualities of food in an eco-friendly manner. Partnerships with the private sector will be essential in this regard. Low water survivor crops will be promoted in drought-prone regions and stress-tolerant crop technology, such as flexible High Yielding Varieties (HYVs), developed. Trials will need to be conducted on the most vulnerable regions based on the priori ties set in the National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) and the Bangladesh Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan (BCCSAP). Emphasis should be placed on developing nutrient dense and resilient crops given the evolving climatic conditions and opportunities arising from this new context. Commercial cultivation of seaweed on coast lines is an example of nutrient dense sources that can be explored. Adjustments to crop-based agriculture will be based on recommendations from research that will focus on the most economically and climatically vulnerable areas of the country. For this, invest ments in research infrastructure are needed. I.1.3. Improve and expand nutrition-sensitive extension programmes and agricultural advisory services Extension services draw their strength from research but also from farmers’ knowledge, innovations and feedback. The institutional mechanisms put in place to link research to extension -District Technical Committees (DTC), Regional Technical Committees (RTC), Agricultural Technical Committees (ATC) and National Agricultural Technical Coordination Committees (NATCC)- need to be revitalised and operationalised while the capacity of extension departments (DAE) and farmers’ organisations needs to be strengthened to allow the two-way transfer of knowledge. The creation of information hubs around the country and effective use of ICTs, with the establishment of a nationwide digitised agricultural database system should facilitate and accelerate information transfer to farmers. An ICT-based surveil lance system can also assist farmers by detecting, diagnosing, preventing and controlling diseases. This can complement more traditional farmers’ training and demonstrations, field days and exhibitions. Climate change adaptation in crop sector, and early warning and vulnerability -Vulnerability Risk Assessment (VRA), Food Security Early Warning, Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) and Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping (VAM)- information, beneficiary awareness building and insti tutional arrangement need to be strengthened for supply of relevant scientific information through extension services. It is also essential that women are explicitly targeted by extension services to unleash their potential in agriculture. For example, additional female extension workers can be recruited to ease communication to women farmers who constitute a large part of the farmer community. Efforts will be needed in promoting practices that test e.g. adaptive trials for direct seeded rice cultivars and all technology developed by National Agricultural Research System (NARS), and apply improved practic es that will render agriculture more productive, resilient, diverse and sustainable such as the introduc tion of new cropping patterns, crops, increased affordable mechanisation, or spread of contract-farming. Extension services hold an important role in sensitising farmers to the importance of agriculture in providing healthy diets by promoting the cultivation of nutrient-rich and diversified crops. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The Ministry of Agriculture plans to invest in strengthening environmental stress research for sustaina ble crop production in the problem areas of Bangladesh through Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI). A major Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) project is also in the pipeline to strengthen diversified crop production by climate-smart agriculture system. Its main ongoing projects are the Rural Development and Co-operatives Division's (RDCD) ‘Expansion, Renovation and Mod ernization of Bangabandhu Poverty Alleviation Training Complex’ in Gopalgonj and DAE’s ‘Year-Round Fruit Production for Nutrition Improvement Project’. Additional considerations: The agricultural knowledge and information system in Bangladesh forms a complex web of actors from public, private and non-government institutions. There are, for instance, 15Second Country Investment Plan 12 government organisations falling under the purview of different ministries that act as agricultural extension service providers. A number of research institutes generate agricultural knowledge: NARS is composed of 13 research institutes. More coordination between these actors is required for greater efficiency and to ensure women and smallholders do not fall through the extension net as still happens often despite representing a large share of the agricultural sector. Additionally, this programme relies extensively on the enhancement of knowledge through research and improved technology which will require substantial resources, both human and infrastructural. However, grass root knowledge and expe rience should also be used as an essential source of information that can help identify better practices adapted to the emerging challenges such as climate change. Agriculture Information and Communica tion Centre (AICC) at village level and Farmer’s Information and Advisory Centre (FIAC) at union level could be established as a means of extension programme and agricultural advisory services. Programme I.2. Improved access, quality and management of agricultural inputs, including water and land Programme aggregate output: Farmers are able to access quality agricultural inputs more cheaply and readily and are able to manage their use more sustainably and efficiently. Justification for this programme: The acute pressure that exists on natural resources in Bangladesh is exacerbated by the effects of climate change and demographic pressure which means more food needs to be produced with less. Access to enough quality agricultural inputs is therefore crucial to maximise production under the existing constraints. Not only is research key to developing more performing inputs, such as seeds and pesticides, but a Save and Grow approach which encourages eco-friendly practices needs to be developed and disseminated to preserve the quality of land and water needed for agriculture and build resilience to climate change. Priority interventions I.2.1. Enhance availability and efficient use of affordable and quality inputs (seeds, fertilisers, pesticides) and credit for safe and diversified crops Because most research and development (R&D) for seed production, multiplication, processing and preservation and testing occurs in the public sector, investments in this area are paramount. With regards to importation, multiplication and distribution of seeds, the right measures need to be put in place for fruitful collaborations with NGOs and the private sector that favour farmers, especially the most vulnerable ones. In conjunction with this, farmers’ own capacity to produce seeds should be devel oped. Farmers’ groups, especially women farmers’ groups, should be involved in creating such condu cive environment to ensure better access to seeds and other inputs. While quality and supply of inputs is improved, Precision Agriculture e.g. use of Urea Super Granules and Integrated Pest Management through biocontrol should be promoted to optimise input use and maximise returns while preserving resources and reducing environmental damage. The push needed for farmers to diversify their crops requires access to affordable credit. I.2.2. Preserve agricultural land fertility and establish land rights of most vulnerable populations While timely access to unadulterated fertilisers needs to be ensured, farmers must be trained to use fertilisers in a balanced way -basing dosages on soil tests carried out by well-equipped soil testing labo ratories and with kits made available locally- to maintain soil fertility while supporting the production and widespread distribution of bio-fertilisers and mineral fertilisers which do not affect the quality of water. More generally, environmentally sound fertility management practices, such as the use of vermin compost, must be promoted to help sustain soil fertility. The use of fertilisers fortified in micronutrient should be part of the sensitisation by extension workers of farmers to the importance of nutrients in diets. Other practices that can help preserve soils should be expanded such as the use of certain vegeta 16 Second Country Investment Plan tion and trees and the introduction of some crop rotation e.g. with legumes. Land needs to be protected from the increasing threat of erosion by appropriate river dredging initiatives. Detailed inventorying of land and soil resources based on soil surveys at union level would allow precision agricultural planning. Land zoning of the country needs to be completed to enable sustainable land and water (see Programme I.2.3.) use given the competing existing demands for these resources associated with rapid demographic and economic growth. The establishment of land rights especially for the most vulnerable groups, with special focus on women, can help create long-term incentives to preserve land fertility. I.2.3. Improve water management through conservation, sustainable extraction and distribution of ground water and efficient use of surface water for irrigation Regular updating of the National Water Resource Database to monitor groundwater levels, floods, drainage, salinity, and arsenic levels in the dry and monsoon seasons in Bangladesh is needed to be able to plan water usage and needs. As with other agricultural inputs, it is important to develop technologies and spread practices that can help save conserve water, such as the use of buried pipes, drip and sprin kler irrigation, and the use of Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD). Given the extensive use of arsenic-contaminated groundwater to irrigate crops, it is urgent to develop the capacity to mitigate its adverse effects. A more cost-effective water distribution system needs to be put in place. Irrigation at night, discouraging the use of deep tube well for irrigation and the cultivation of high water demand crop in Barind Area could be incorporated as a means of improved water management. Surface water irrigation needs to be promoted to reduce pressure on ground water and circumvent the arsenic problem, through the expansion of irrigation infrastructures such as solar panels for small-scale irrigation. The creation of water reservoirs and the harvesting of rain water in rainfed/coastal/hilly areas should be encouraged, and small-scale water resources systems promoted with active participation of local com munities to ensure proper maintenance of the infrastructure. Efforts are also needed to excavate/re-exca vate the natural canals and other water bodies which can help small-scale surface water irrigation and control waterlogging. Complementary irrigation should be supplied to rain-fed T. Aman and Aus rice when required to minimise dependence on irrigation-dependant Boro rice. Water reservoir, canals and other water bodies have the potential to be used for multiple uses, including fish farming for increased production of animal source foods (see Programme I.3). PPPs are recognised as an effective way to overcome financial constraints in the development of irrigation and ventures to enable their develop ment should be encouraged. I.2.4. Mitigate the effects of saline water intrusion and its impact on food production and implica tions for consumption Large areas of crop land in coastal areas suffer from salinisation due to natural calamities driven by the effects of climate change. Presently, in compliance with the National Shrimp Policy 2014, eco-friendly integrated shrimp farming is being promoted, which will ultimately ensure the health of soil and water. Assessing the biodiversity changes that are likely to happen in this context need to be appropriately considered for policy responses. Solutions that can be put in place range from coastal afforestation to the development of saline-resistant rice varieties and climate-resilient crop varieties, planting of saline-tolerant fruit trees and using the water for farming of saline-tolerant fish species (see Programme I.3). Shrimp farming may be integrated in low-saline and non-saline areas with the adoption and intro duction of salt-tolerant varieties following the Land Zoning Guidelines of the Government in the coastal areas. The numerous damaged polders built to provide protection against tidal intrusion and to increase agricultural production should be rehabilitated. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The pipeline budget of this programme is inflated by the planned setting up of a modern, energy efficient with higher capacity urea fertiliser factory to cost over US$ 1 billion with one quarter of the funds to come from DPs. Most substantial ongoing projects are related to irrigation and water management. 17Second Country Investment Plan Additional considerations: Bangladesh is plagued with a number of problems due to geographical idiosyncrasies, such as declining aquifer levels, arsenic contamination, silting and increased salinity in coastal areas, drainage congestion due to rise in sea level, and river bed rise, which make implementa tion of agricultural programmes all the more challenging. The success of this programme relies on the close collaboration between several ministries but particularly the Ministries of Agriculture, Industry and Water Resources. The involvement of farmer organisations and the private sector is also critical. A supportive policy environment that enables public private partnerships and enhances participation of private sector entrepreneurs is key in providing quality inputs and services. Input adulteration is also a continuous threat which Programme V.1. seeks to address. Programme I.3. Enhanced productivity and sustainable production of animal source foods Programme aggregate output: The production of foods from animal source is increased by boosting the productivity and profitability of fisheries, aquaculture, dairy, meat and eggs in a sustainable manner. Justification for this programme: Inadequate growth in early childhood has been linked to poor dietary diversity, notably low intake of good quality protein and micronutrient-rich animal source foods. These foods play a crucial role in addressing chronic child malnutrition and related FNS issues given their intrinsic nutritional qualities but also because they substantially enhance the bioavailability of micronutrients from other foods22. In line with global trends, capture fisheries are threatened by the overall drastic shifts in agricultural production and management of land and water, more areas brought under high yielding rice varieties, expansion of irrigation, drainage and protection by flood control embankments and insecticide and pesticide excessive use. In addition, overfishing, destructive practices and pollution affect biomass and biodiversity. Fish farming has more than compensated for the sharp decline in consumption of naturally harvested fish to some extent, but the nutritive value of these usual ly large farmed fish is low compared to the capture fisheries and small fish which are rich in sources of important micronutrients, including iron, zinc, calcium, vitamin A and vitamin B12, as well as essential fatty acids and animal protein. The production in livestock and poultry needs to be enhanced in relation to demand. The strong call for development of this sector came from government agencies, CSOs, private sector and farmers recognising the contribution of this sector to income and employment gener ation, and food and nutrition security. Milk production is beleaguered with a multitude of problems such as lack of high yielding breeds, knowledge gaps of farmers, inadequate milk value chain, lack of adequate veterinary services and shortage of quality feeds and fodder. Other challenges are poor availa bility of drugs, vaccines and artificial insemination facilities, poor husbandry practices and lack of labo ratory facilities of Department of Livestock Services (DLS) at field levels. Priority interventions I.3.1. Improve management of fisheries, livestock and poultry to increase production and produc tivity and nutritional value while ensuring sustainability I.3.1.1. Fisheries and aquaculture: In order to preserve the amount and diversity of capture fish, current rules and systems in place need to be implemented and reviewed: national and local governance of wetlands, fish and wetlands sanctuaries, connectivity between water bodies and wetlands, fish sanctuar ies, fishing bans in critical areas during certain seasons, rules regarding the gear used and the species that can be fished, etc. The joint management of water resources by community-based organisations should be further encouraged drawing from recent positive experiences. Ensuring rights over water bodies for the most vulnerable, with special focus on women will contribute to sustainable fishing prac tices. Farmers need to be educated through extension services on optimal management practices and supported to ensure that water bodies used as refuges and sanctuaries are protected, do not dry out and connectivity to wetlands is maintained. Economical ways to produce feed with high content in protein and micronutrients must be encouraged. Research must be promoted to ensure that efficient and sustain able technologies and practices are adopted by farmers. 22This is also the case of foods rich in vitamin C. 18 Second Country Investment Plan I.3.1.2. Livestock and poultry: Breed development needs to be strengthened with the introduction of individual animal identification and recording systems. Establishment of good husbandry practices is also central to this process. Enhanced production of meat and poultry with special emphasis on beef fattening, small ruminants and broiler production are also high policy priorities that merit major invest ment. Boosting milk production should also be a focus of attention while also ensuring that the milk value chain is strengthened to allow for efficient marketing of this commodity (see Programme II.1.). To complement the National Nutrition Services, poultry raising, and other community level nutri tion-based agricultural activities should be revived by providing training to farmers and through behav iour change communications (BCC), especially smallholders who can then supplement their diets. The promotion of smallholder dairy farming integrated with crop and fish culture is another avenue into effectively enhancing diets for nutrition. The creation of small-scale biogas farms can be encouraged as a way to enhance households’ income. For these changes to take place, advice will have to be provided through extension workers, notably door step and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) based service delivery. I.3.2. Sustain micronutrient-rich animal food production through conserving fisheries and livestock biodiversity I.3.2.1. Fisheries and aquaculture: Polyculture of large fish and highly nutritious small fish which increases total fish production as well as the nutritional quality of the production must be promoted and scaled up. The large fish are sold, thereby increasing household income, whereas, part of the small fish is used for household consumption, supplying good quality protein, fatty acids and multiple micronutri ents. Total fish production and diversity of species can be greatly enhanced by making use of a continu um of production systems, for example, ponds connected to rice fields for part of the production cycle and use of seasonal water bodies for fish farming. The human and physical capacities of government departments and other institutions that contribute to the preservation and improvement of diverse fish species, including farmed species and production of good quality brood stock, fish fingerlings, technol ogy development through extensive research and provide extension services must be strengthened. I.3.2.2. Livestock and poultry: Strengthening productivity of dairy animals through genetic improve ment is a major priority. Genetic improvement of local genomes along with conservation and utilisation of indigenous breeds with proven potential needs to be scaled up. An autonomous institution should be established for quality assurance and certification of livestock products, vaccines and biologics. Artifi cial insemination services need to be further strengthened and expanded, as appropriate. Genetic improvement of poultry, goat, sheep, cattle and buffalo and breed development needs to be made possi ble by strengthening research and development capacity and upgraded postgraduate training. I.3.3. Strengthen sustainable shrimp aquaculture, marine fisheries and farming systems adapted to geographical zones Despite significant improvements, concerns remain in quality assurance in shrimp aquaculture and laboratory testing capacities must be enhanced by procuring equipment and trained manpower. The Government must facilitate the introduction of Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) shrimp by the private sector. Community organisations of shrimp farmers and marine fishermen should also be supported with technology, input, financing and market linkages to stimulate production. Marine and coastal resources will have to be protected from overfishing to safeguard their sustainability while allowing the poorer sections of the population to tap into this source of food and income. Where water salinity has become an issue, brackish water fish and shell fish culture should be promoted to minimise the negative effects of this problem on nutritional outcomes of coastal populations. I.3.4. Improve fisheries, livestock and poultry health services, quality inputs and surveillance Public private partnerships should be promoted to allow for greater availability and enhancement for 19Second Country Investment Plan safer and quality inputs for all sectors -quality and healthy feed, day old chicks, breeds and medi cine/vaccination-. By developing community-based fodder cultivation along roads and highways, rivers and embankments, in khas lands and in combination with crops, the production of food and fodder would need to be expanded. Efficient supply of inputs like day old chicks, vaccines against emerging diseases, semen and other related materials need to be enhanced. Development and implementation of hatchery regulations, introduction of new layer strains and development of Parent and Grand Parent breeds need to be improved. Additionally, mechanised and climate resilient environment friendly production practices must be promoted. Multifaceted veterinary service delivery system needs improvement. This will also require strengthening of veterinary diseases diagnostic laboratory facilities along with surveillance and monitoring. Diagnoses through animal health services need to be improved and access to drugs will have to be expanded. Field level surveillance systems need to be improved to mitigate disease outbreak, especially Avian Influenza and related veterinary diseases. Research on the prevention and control of microbes in aquaculture will need to continue, especially in light of emerging drug resistance. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The two biggest ongoing projects are the Department of Fisheries’ ‘Enhancement of Fish Production through Restoration of Water bodies Project’ and the Department of Livestock Services' ‘Establishment of Institute of Livestock Science and Technology’, both of which are categorised as nutrition-sensitive projects. The Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock's (MoFL) ‘Sustainable Coastal and Marine Fisheries in Bangladesh’ pipeline project is the most substantial in this programme followed by the portion of the ‘Livestock Development based Dairy and Meat Production Project (LDDMPP)’ allocated to this programme23 . Additional considerations: Collaboration between the Ministry of Agriculture and Ministry of Fisher ies and Livestock is essential. An enabling policy environment and policy will be needed for promotion of public private partnerships and enhanced participation of private sector entrepreneurs. Access rights over land and water bodies are essential for the most vulnerable and needs to be addressed. 23 As explained in Section 11, some projects fall under several CIP2 programmes. In such cases, only the corresponding shares of their budgets are allocated to each programme. 20 Second Country Investment Plan OUTCOME II. Efficient and nutrition-sensitive post-harvest transformation and value addition Programme II.1. Strengthened post-harvest value chain with particular focus on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) (storage, processing, branding, labelling, marketing and trade) Expected programme aggregate output: Food value chains are developed and strengthened, contrib uting to better access to safe and nutritious food and increased rural incomes through the creation of employment. Justification for this programme: How food is processed and handled after the production phase is crucial to its final nutritional value. From the post-harvest handling and storage, processing, transporta tion, marketing, trade, retail and promoting consumption and disposing of food- all stages can compro mise or maximise the nutritional value a food item can offer. The potential income source that these value addition activities can constitute, especially for women and the poorest sections of the population, also needs to be exploited. Supply chain development for animal products should provide better prices to producers. Unorganised animal products marketing system need to be restructured, developing well defined marketing channel linking producers to consumers through private processors. Priority interventions II.1.1. Develop skills and strengthen capacity to process and supply safe and nutrient-rich foods with emphasis on quality standards and nutrient labelling information Better understanding of different food value chains through research is needed to better target invest ments in this area. Research can identify profitable areas of food processing that can guide food produc ers and agribusinesses and inform policy. Capacity strengthening for agro-processing entrepreneurs or those aspiring to join the sector is needed for this industry to develop: from the actual food processing techniques to managerial and business skills. Food producers can also benefit from developing their marketing skills, including product branding and nutrient labelling. Their technical abilities to process food in a way that yields foods with profitable margins must also be developed while ensuring the safety of food and nutritious value of these foods. This knowledge must also be imparted at individual and household levels. Tailored training can provide the most vulnerable groups the skills they need to be employable in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The identification of skills required for local communities to be employable should be done in collaboration with the local private sector and NGOs. In addition to training, affordable credit is paramount to enable the development of SMEs. Employment and income generation programmes can be a way to introduce vulnerable groups to the food processing industry and by the same token ensure their access to varied and nutritious foods. Emphasis should be put on developing cottage industries that involves women and accommodates around their household obligations such as child care. Maternity protection at work needs to be ensured to safeguard the health of pregnant and nursing women and prevent vulnerable women from losing their jobs because of mater nity. II.1.2. Adopt appropriate technology and strengthen infrastructure to allow quality improve ment, value addition, and fortification of foods Under this sub-programme, transmission of knowledge on practices that can enhance the nutritional value of food is essential be it at the time when food is being transported, processed but also prepared. For example, germinating and malting of grains and pulses will enhance their vitamin, mineral and protein content and bioavailability whereas a prolonged exposure to heat reduces the vitamin content. For the latter, infrastructure development may be required to enable households, small and bigger farm ers to store their produce in an appropriate manner. Attention is needed for disaster-prone areas and locations mostly likely to be affected by climate change where produce may be more easily damaged by 21Second Country Investment Plan the climatic vagaries: ‘climate-smart’ food systems must be developed. Projects that support the devel opment of agribusinesses that prevent food-borne illness -with the dissemination of Good Hygienic Practices as covered under Programme V.1.- and extend shelf-life ensuring year-round good nutrition and income such as freezing, fermentation, pickling, canning and pasteurisation should be favoured, tapping the potential for development of youth and women entrepreneurship (Sub-programme II.1.1.). The introduction of appropriate post-harvest technology such as small pounding and de-husking machines can relieve rural women from time-consuming tasks. Improved nutritional quality of foods also means avoiding the use or over-use of certain ingredients such as salt, trans fats, sugar and addi tives. Plans to collaborate with the food industry to achieve such results need to be made. The 2016 Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture recommended maintaining nutrition consid eration across the value chain, whilst removing anti-nutritional factors from products such as reduction of beta -N- oxalyl-amino -L -alanine (BOAA) content in khesari dal and erucic acid in mustard oil. Food fortification will need to be continued and scope for widening the types of food to be fortified will merit policy attention. Indeed, biofortification and HYVs need to be considered as important measures to better target the 1000 days window of opportunity for nutrition. II.1.3. Mobilise and promote producer and marketing groups for improved market access and bargaining power, especially for women and smallholders In a country where the agricultural sector is dominated by small enterprises, encouraging the creation of producers’ -especially small to marginal ones, and women- and marketing cooperatives is highly desirable if the processing industry is to be promoted. Food value chains can also benefit from being shortened by reducing the number of intermediaries between producers and retailers. Collectively, farmers and those involved in processing food can invest in improving market facilities and storage; their access to resources and technology is enhanced which can improve their productivity; they have better access to markets with greater bargaining power vis-à-vis buyers, leading to more remunerative prices for their produce; the effects of risks and disasters are mitigated and they are also able to take more risks such as turning to new more diverse crops which they would not otherwise. For the milk supply chain, such initiatives have proved very successful and this should be further expanded. This can highly benefit marine fishers for example, who lack of cooling facilities, and are forced to sell their catch immediately to middlemen at low prices or incur major wastage. Cost-sharing projects can change this to organise fish procurement centres and fish collection points which would be linked to domestic and international markets. Farmers’ cooperatives and groups e.g. for milk production need to be estab lished to convert them into profit-oriented groups. Market supply chains should be shortened so that unnecessary intermediaries are excluded. Good and certified quality of products should efficiently flow through markets. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations This programme counts much fewer interventions, all of which are categorised as nutrition-supportive rather than sensitive. The two main ongoing ones are DAE’s ‘Integrated Farm Management, Agricultur al Production and Employment Programme’ and Milk Vita’s ‘Establishment of Super Instant Powder Milk Plant at Baghabarighat, Sirajgonj’. In terms of pipeline, the projects that stand out in terms of potential investments include the Department of Fisheries’ ‘Sustainable Management and Value Chain Development in Fisheries Sector’ and the DLS’ ‘Livestock Development based Dairy Revolution and Meat Production Project (LDDRMPP)’. Additional considerations: Because the value chain involves many actors and stakeholders, develop ing a nutrition-sensitive value chain requires substantial efforts in terms of coordination, especially among different ministries and line agencies involved and the private sector. Efforts will be needed to provide credit to marginal and small entrepreneurs if MSMEs are to be promoted in the food sector. Another major challenge will be to convince the private sector to adhere to the highest standards of nutritional quality, nutrient labelling and food safety where there is already a strong demand for their current products. 22 Second Country Investment Plan Programme II.2. Improved physical access to markets, facilities and information Expected programme aggregate output: Food producers and processors are able to use markets more efficiently. Justification for this programme: Inefficiencies in the value addition chain, such as market distortions through intermediaries and limited market infrastructure, can affect the variability of prices and trans late into lower profits for growers: vegetable growers only receive 48% of the retail price against 79% for rice growers. By removing some of the barriers to agribusiness, agro-processing and supply chains, this programme aims to provide the ‘big push’ needed by agriculture and rural development. Priority interventions II.2.1. Improve market infrastructures, physical access to market facilities The maintenance and further building of link and feeder roads that connect local markets remains essen tial to allow the prompt transportation of fresh produce -and avoid spoilage. Market infrastructure also needs to be expanded: for instance, fish landing sites, harbour-based fish dressing centres and fish processing estates, as well as modern slaughter houses and live poultry marketing facilities. The further development of cold chain infrastructure remains high on the agenda and should be undertaken in close collaboration with the private sector. Fish, for example, takes between one and three days to reach markets from their landing point and 30% are marketed fresh and 40% frozen. For this commodity, a failing cold chain signifies spoilage. Hence, where the food chain is involved, adequate measures must be put in place such as the guarantee of a continuous supply of electricity. II.2.2. Enhance the role of the private sector and promote Public Private Partnership (PPP) investments through adequate public sector regulatory frameworks and Technical Assistance (TA) support Two recent papers in the Lancet24 highlight the potential role of the private sector in combating undernu trition. Because agri-food firms will inevitably affect nutritional outcomes given their role in providing food to the consumers, it is important to create an enabling environment for the private sector to contrib ute to food value chain development that responds to the needs of the country. For example, transparent and inclusive policy frameworks that help manage the potential risks and trade-offs between private economic objectives and public goals such as the healthy nutritional value of food stuffs (see Sub-pro gramme II.1.2.) can be devised. Private companies can also be encouraged to contribute to developing the food value chain with measures such as the reduction of financial and regulatory constraints. Private investment may be further leveraged though PPPs which can be encouraged through enabling public sector regulatory frameworks and the provision of technical support for their development and monitor ing for example. The creation of Agro Economic Zones, like the existing Export Processing Zones (EPZs) could also help stimulate rapid economic growth of the food processing industry by setting up special areas where potential investors would find a conducive investment climate. Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) can try to leverage significant amounts of private investment and direct it toward improving the nutrition of low-income families. Efforts will also need to be mobilised through the SUN Business Network in support of the SUN Movement. II.2.3. Scale-up information dissemination, including the establishment of ICT facilities Market participants need to be provided with adequate market information to ensure that buying and selling is made competitive. Continuous market research will inform efficient market operations. Beyond physical access to markets (Sub-programme II.2.1.), market information systems need to be developed notably using ICTs, so that poorer and vulnerable sections of the population are able to derive financial benefits by expanding their access to markets, in the same way their richer counterparts do. Mobile phones and the internet can facilitate market access and reduce transaction costs. They can 24Gillespie, S., Haddad, L., Mannar, V., Menon, P., Nisbett (2013) The Lancet: The politics of reducing malnutrition: building commitment and accelerating progress and Ruel, M.T. and H. Alderman (2013) Nutrition-sensitive interventions and programmes: how can they help to accelerate progress in improving maternal and child nutrition? 23Second Country Investment Plan provide information on fair market value of goods and other important knowledge to small farmers and producers. This can drive consumer prices down and promote quality of the goods sold due to enhanced competition between food producers. This enhanced access to information through ICTs to connect more efficiently to markets is a particularly useful tool for women who tend to be more restricted in their movements. Coping with domestic food price fluctuations is another high policy priority. There is need to understand the proper functioning of food commodity markets and the sources of food price volatility given its implications for food insecure households. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The majority of projects under this programme, both ongoing and pipeline consist in building roads and bridges. This can only be considered as nutrition-supportive interventions, although they are paramount in developing economies and allowing access to markets. Because of this categorisation, only half of their budget is considered in the nutrition-weighed CIP2 budget; but these are costly endeavours, and in spite of this, they still weigh heavily in the overall CIP2 budget. DLS is currently finalising the LDDRMPP. Additional considerations: The presence of trade syndicates can jeopardise the proper functioning of markets, by interfering with the role of prices as market signals. This is a challenging problem to solve. With regards to using ICTs, limited literacy can constitute an obstacle, especially for the poorest sections of the population who may have benefited from minimum levels of schooling. 24 Second Country Investment Plan OUTCOME III. Improved dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation Programme III.1. Enhanced nutrition knowledge, promotion of good practices, and consumption of safe and nutritious diets Expected programme aggregate output: Nutrition and health are improved through integrated short and long-term interventions. Justification for this programme: Households have slowly been changing their diets and are consum ing a broader range of foods, with greater consumption of vegetables, fruits, and animal source foods. However, the consumption rate of these foods remains below the recommended amounts. Food consumption remains heavily centred on cereals, with rice alone providing around 60 to 66% of dietary energy intake. It is therefore crucial to continue promoting diversified and quality diets through programmes based on accurate knowledge of what people are consuming and what influences the changes in their diets. Faced with the appearance of foods not traditionally consumed in Bangladesh on the markets and the influence of globalisation on diets, more than ever, people need to be informed on what an adequate diet is. Finally, these more long-term strategies must be linked to ones that can tackle some of the immediate problems. Priority interventions III.1.1. Scale up nutrition training, behaviour change communications (BCC) for enhanced knowledge, safe storage, household processing and improved consumption Availability and access to nutritious food does not guarantee that people will consume adequate diets. Consumers need to be informed on the importance of a diverse and balanced diet which includes animal source foods, with messages adapted to different audiences e.g. rural and urban through BCC. The Food Composition Tables and dietary guidelines should be widely disseminated, used in food planning and regularly updated. Women should be targeted by these campaigns since they hold a key role in the preparation and intra-household distribution of food and feeding their families. Demonstrations of the best methods to improve nutrition through low-cost food preparation that uses local nutritious foods and appropriate storage should take place as widely as possible. Sensitisation to the importance of the nutri tion received by a child in the 1000 days since conception is also paramount as well as the promotion of optimal Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices, exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months and appropriate complementary feeding from 6 to 24 months. Sensitisation of children through school vege table gardens, cooking demonstrations and nutrition education should be incorporated in the curricu lum. Building the capacities of health workers and teachers to mainstream nutrition in their messages to women and children is a prerequisite for these activities to take place. Where appropriate, the consump tion of fortified foods will be advised. III.1.2. Prevent and control non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and ensure healthy diets through promotion of dietary guidelines linked with national NCD strategies and related nutrition services Changes in diets are not explained only by changes in purchasing power: many other factors come into play which need to be understood to steer people towards healthy diets and lifestyles. The food culture will evolve as the country transitions to the status of middle-income country, changing according to the supply available but also through the influence of external markets and media. Trade and trade policies can promote better nutrition, but can also have negative nutritional outcomes. Freer trade broadens food choice, thus promoting a more diversified diet, but at the same time, it is associated with increased availability of cheaper foods that may be characterised by high calorie and low nutritional content, which can lead to an increased incidence of obesity and other diet-related diseases. In the context of urbanisation and increased market reliance in Bangladesh, trade must be observed through a nutrition lens to maximise benefits and reduce risks. It is important to scale up the implementation of national dietary guidelines through the National Nutrition Services (NNS) and the NCD strategy adjusting 25Second Country Investment Plan dietary and nutrient requirements as per age, activity levels, and occupation. Mass-scale consumer information, BCC and public awareness campaigns need to be designed and integrated into health and food-based interventions to encourage consumption of healthy and nutritious foods and discourage/lim it the consumption of highly processed sugar-rich, high fat and salty products. In particular, nutri tion-sensitive price interventions may impose taxes on ultra-processed foods e.g. sugar-sweetened drinks so as to restrict their consumption. Preventive and control strategies should be popularised through dissemination of diet and nutrition information, including nutrient labelling, through digitised technology, visual and folk media at strategic points: hospitals, clinics, schools, universities, corporate offices, community clinics, extension centres and rural communities at large. Public parks and walk ways should provide facilities for physical activity as appropriate. III.1.3. Knowledge-based tools and research on the development and promotion of nutrient dense recipes using local foods for enhancing diversified food consumption to reduce stunting, wasting and micronutrient deficiencies The Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture held in Dhaka in April 2016 emphasised that agricultural diversity can increase dietary diversity. Nutrition-sensitive agriculture interventions are long-term interventions, systematically targeted to reduce undernutrition rates i.e. stunting, wasting and anemia and may be mobilised to prevent overnutrition, obesity and NCDs. The Symposium highlighted that agriculture must be based on sensitivity to human nutritional needs to address them. To this effect, improving nutrition through increased production and productivity of livestock, dairy, poultry and fisheries and strengthening linkages with enhanced consumption of animal source foods can play a central role in preventing and controlling stunting, wasting and micronutrient deficiencies, notably anemia, vitamin A and zinc deficiencies. Given the importance of appropriate feeding, especially of infants and young children as well as healthy diets during pregnancy and lactation, the work to develop nutrient dense recipes that has been carried out and promoted through the field training delivered by, among others, Bangladesh Breastfeeding Foundation (BBF), Bangladesh Institute of Research and Training on Applied Nutrition (BIRTAN), DAE, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Council (BARC), BARI, Bangladesh Institute of Research and Rehabilitation for Diabetes, Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders (BIRDEM), DLS, Department of Fisheries (DoF) needs to continue. These recipes must be based on the Food Composition Tables. The promotion of these recipes must not limit itself to only poorer sections of the population since studies have found that even among the richest wealth quintile, 65% of children do not receive an adequate diet 25. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations Only BIRTAN’s ‘Integrated Agricultural Approach for Ensuring Nutrition and Food Security Project (BIRTAN phase)’ and the Local Government Engineering Department’s (LGED) ‘Support to Urban Health and Nutrition to Bangladesh’ are ongoing under this programme. A subcomponent of a pipeline project, i.e. LDDRMPP, envisages capacity building across the livestock and dairy value chain, enhanc ing consumer awareness and nutrition through behavioural change communication campaigns, safe animal source foods handling and preparation, nutritional aspects of milk-meat and its products and improving the diets of school children through milk and eggs incorporated in school nutrition programmes. Another component of a pipeline project on smallholder agricultural competitiveness focuses on improving diets, nutrition and product development for vulnerable smallholder groups and families, among other activities related to the horticulture value chain. Most other planned projects that have been included are part of the NNS. Additional considerations: This programme involves many stakeholders and it is essential that actions are coordinated for a common approach. It should seek synergies with the NPAN2 and mechanisms such as SUN -with strategic focus on the first 1000 days of life- and REACH. Where the medium to long-term effects of the initiatives proposed in this programme need to be complemented by immediate treatment of acute malnutrition, therapeutic and supplementary feeding measures for pregnant women and malnourished children should be put in place as appropriate. The promotion of fortified foods should not contravene the Breast-Milk Substitutes, Infant Foods, Commercially Manufactured Comple mentary Foods and the Accessories Thereof (Regulation of Marketing) Act 2013. 25Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey 2014. 26 Second Country Investment Plan Programme III.2. Optimised food utilisation through provision of safe water, improved food hygiene and sanitation Expected programme aggregate output: Measures are taken to optimise the use of the nutritional potential of food. Justification for this programme: Many people remain unaware of how the use of unsafe water and poor hygiene can lead to illnesses that affect their body’s utilisation of food. Many still lack access to adequate sanitary facilities. Half of the drinking water available fails to meet safety standards. The qual ity of surface water has degraded due to improper discharge of industrial waste and other pollutants, such as herbicides, thus limiting its use as a drinking water source. Awareness-raising and education are urgently needed, while ensuring that the facilities needed for safe practices are in place. III.2.1. Scale up the supply of safe water for consumption and domestic use Clean and safe -from arsenic for example- water must be accessible to all for consumption but also other domestic uses. Where ground water is marred by the presence of arsenic, salt and other pollutants and surface water by the presence of micro-organisms, industrial wastes, fertilisers, insecticides or herbi cides, alternative water supply options need to be developed. The number of pumps must be expanded, especially during the monsoon as contamination can happen. The impact of the shortage of drinking water is borne disproportionately by women who are traditionally charged with water collection. III.2.2. Ensure hygienic food handling, preparation and services, and scale-up hand washing behaviour Those involved in handling and preparing food, be it at home, in restaurants and on the streets, can transmit bacteria that may lead to illness. Humans, through their hands, breath, hair, and perspiration can constitute a source of contamination. This is why specific campaigns to inform on the dangers of unhygienic food handling, preparation, safe storage, reheating of foods where necessary, and distribu tion and demonstration of appropriate practices is essential. Mothers should be sensitised to the need to wash their hands before preparing food for children and feeding them in addition to the use of correct cooking temperatures, protective display of foods and service. Ensuring that soap and water are availa ble at all times close to food preparation and feeding areas and the use of low cost hand-washing technologies should be a priority. III.2.3. Improve sanitary facilities and practices, including the prevention of animal cross-con tamination, for reducing diarrheal disease and food borne illness and child undernutrition A vicious cycle exists between diarrhea and undernutrition. People must be sensitised to the impact of water-borne diseases and poor hygiene on their body’s ability to optimally utilise the food they ingest. Sanitation infrastructure must be made widely available by building more sanitary latrines and scaling up its use as well as maintenance. Efforts are needed in particular in urban areas where only 25% of households live in dwellings with a permanent sanitary structure. Different gender needs must be taken into account e.g. in schools and facilities must be built bearing in mind the possible effects of floods. Animal cross-contamination in homesteads is also an issue of concern for which awareness raising activities need to be integrated into nutrition, food safety and sanitation projects. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE)’s ‘Bangladesh Rural Water Supply and Sanita tion Project (BRWSSP)’ accounts for the biggest portion of the ongoing projects’ budget under this programme. Only five projects have been counted as currently ongoing under this programme and two in the pipeline. 27Second Country Investment Plan Additional considerations: Synergies may be exploited between the actions proposed towards the sensitisation to the risks of cross-contamination and to the importance of consuming safe foods (Sub-programme V.1.4.). The improvement of sanitary facilities goes beyond the construction of latrines and requires infrastructure investments beyond the remit of the CIP2. Indeed, most of the urban residents do not have any connection to a public sewerage system but are connected simply to a septic tank. Yet, improper sanitation system and untreated sewage risks mixing with water. Furthermore, inad equately sealed latrines in rural areas create faecal pollution at times of flooding. 28 Second Country Investment Plan OUTCOME IV. Enhanced access to social protection and safety nets and increased resilience Programme IV.1.: Timely and effective disaster preparedness and responses through emergency food distribution, steps towards agricultural sector rehabilitation and mitigation measures Expected programme aggregate output: Systems are in place to protect vulnerable groups' food and nutrition security before, during and after disasters. Justification for this programme: Given the ever-increasing frequency of disasters and effects of climate change on FNS in Bangladesh, the country needs to integrate these factors in its planning. For example, crops, fish and livestock that are resilient to disasters but also hold high nutritive value must be preferred by vulnerable groups; quick-response measures must be put in place for agriculture to spring back in case of a disaster; and alternative income generating activities must exist for those whose livelihood is affected. When economic access to food is jeopardised by disasters, an efficient Public Food Distribution System (PFDS) needs to be ready to intervene. Priority interventions IV.1.1. Increase the resilience of agricultural systems, including the production of disaster-resil ient nutritious crops especially by vulnerable populations The promotion of homestead-based agriculture, poultry, fish culture, livestock farming, roof top gardening, forest nursery and horticulture through projects, such as ‘Ekti Bari Ekti Khamar’, has been shown to increase and ensure year-round availability and intake of micronutrient-rich foods and animal source foods. This strengthens households’ resilience and should therefore be expanded with particular emphasis on producing disaster resilient crops with high nutrient content as identified or developed through research (see Sub-programme I.1.1.). Access to agricultural inputs -land, seeds, fish brood stock, fingerlings, water, fertilisers-, including credit and other financial services such as insurance schemes for women, smallholders and the rural poor, should be facilitated to increase their resilience. Targeted interventions should be put in place following natural disasters to fast-track the public and private distribution of seeds/seedlings and other agricultural inputs as well as cash or in-kind transfers to the most vulnerable households. By ensuring food can quickly be grown for self-consumption and by restoring their livelihoods, the impact of the crisis on their nutritional status can be minimised. An effec tive early warning system will be developed in line with the Bangladesh Environment, Forestry and Climate Change Country Investment Plan (2016-2021)26. Such a system that will enable timely respons es to sudden food needs of groups living in the areas prone to disasters (see Sub-programme IV.2.1.). The Government will ensure prompt reactions by operationalising its Multiple Risk Vulnerability Assessment Mapping (MRVA) cell and Damage and Needs Assessment Cell. Such measures could help guide farmers on which types of crops to sow and timings to adopt. IV.1.2. Ensure social and economic access to food for the poorest sections of the population in times of crisis and in areas most affected by disaster Efforts are needed to develop alternative income generating activities (AIGAs) in cases such as that of fishermen during the lean season, for groups that depend on the utilisation of natural resources that are being overexploited e.g. forests or for those unable to cope with the unpredictability of climatic events. Special programmes are needed for groups whose incomes are seasonal if no alternative livelihood is available during the restriction period of fish catching but also for those that are temporarily affected by crises or hit by climate change. Mobile phones must be used to transfer social benefits to the most vulnerable to avoid delays during or following disasters. For those with unreliable or no access to mobile phones, Union Digital Centres may be used. 26 Outcome 3 of this CIP is to implement climate change adaptation and mitigation measures and increase resilience. 29Second Country Investment Plan IV.1.3. Scale-up modern food storage facilities for improved Public Food Distribution System, particularly in disaster-prone areas The GoB’s storage capacity needs to be enhanced to be able to keep buffer stocks of food grain to make up for production and stock losses due to calamities. This requires construction of modern food grain storage facilities and appropriate maintenance of existing go-downs and silos. By ensuring the existence of appropriate storage facilities across the country and in disaster-prone areas, the GoB can keep large quantities of food grains for long periods of time to respond to ad hoc needs, with minimal losses and without compromising the nutritional value of the grain that is distributed. Cash and food transfers need to be made more flexible to allow a more efficient food grain stock management, to avoid spoilage when food stocks are not required for emergencies. Concurrently, household-based stocking will be encouraged (see Sub-Programme III.1.1.). Capacity strengthening efforts are also needed to ensure efficient stock information and appropriate distribution management. For example, an ICT-based PFDS will be introduced. This will also enhance the effectiveness of PFDS in its role in price stabilisation. The GoB should investigate the possibility of introducing nutrient-rich foods, such as pulses and animal source foods, for example, dried fish, in the PFDS. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The Ministry of Food’s ‘Modern Food Storage Facilities Project (MFSP)’ stands out among the ongoing projects. Many others are related to the management of areas at risk of flooding or erosion. There is little in the way of pipeline apart from the NNS Emergency supplies programme which has been included under this programme. Additional considerations: The GoB faces the permanent challenge of having to reconcile the three objectives of the PFDS which simultaneously aims to: (i) support social safety nets; (ii) meet food and nutrition security needs arising from disasters; and (iii) stabilise food grain prices. An additional layer of complexity is now added by the recent NSSS’ plans to gradually shift from food-based to cash-based programmes. It is important that the initiatives to enhance the PFDS under the CIP2 and the NSSS are synchronised. With regards to funds made available to respond to disasters, Bangladesh’s progress to lower middle-income status is likely to be associated with lower TA commitments from international sources. This further stresses the need for support measures that will have long-lasting positive effects on resilience. Programme IV.2. Strengthened social protection and safety net programmes for targeted groups across the life cycle, including disabled and displaced populations Expected programme aggregate output: Effectiveness, targeting and content of social safety net programmes are improved to provide better protection to different vulnerable groups. Justification for this programme: Existing safety nets bypass some of the most vulnerable people. Children under five for example, the elderly and people with disabilities, are often left out. Other groups are better covered, such as school age children, but targeting mechanisms remain weak: inclusion errors i.e. non-poor beneficiary households and exclusion errors i.e. poor non-beneficiary households are high, and transfers are low in value, irregular and bring limited relief and impact. Some geographical areas also need improved coverage especially as the effects of climate change take their toll on people’s liveli hoods. A national single social registry is planned to be established for the better targeting and capturing of potential beneficiaries. This registry then will be connected to each ministry’s information manage ment system to monitor the progress of the NSSS. The effect of safety nets on the nutritional status can also be improved through the fortification of the foods distributed and a greater diversity of foods distributed, as well as integrating nutrition education and awareness raising in the programme. These safety net programmes can also be used as a medium to raise awareness on the importance of eating nutritious, balanced and safe diets with the most vulnerable sections of the population. 30 Second Country Investment Plan Priority interventions IV.2.1. Expand and strengthen safety net programmes across the life cycle supporting vulnerable groups, such as poor women, children, the elderly, disabled people and displaced populations Further progress needs to be made on targeting -especially of women, adolescent girls, children and the elderly- and on the efficiency and effectiveness of safety net programmes. The life cycle approach adopted by the NSSS 2015 can be applied to plan CIP2 investments required to meet the needs of people at different stages of their life. Preventive programmes will be required for unborn children and their mothers into their childhood to prevent unrepairable nutritional deficiencies from occurring. Older people as well as disabled ones will need protective safety nets to ensure their dietary needs are met. Given that the transfer value of the Old Age Allowance and Disability Benefit forms a minimal propor tion of the allowances under the NSSS, review of the current schemes for its impact on nutrition and income security of the elderly and handicapped is a priority. IV.2.2. Expand and strengthen programmes for supporting people living in vulnerable and disad vantaged areas (char land, river bank, haors, hill tracts and urban areas) The social security system needs to work in conjunction with an effective disaster response system for most vulnerable areas of the country. Delivery systems also require efficient information systems to manage resources and trained personnel. Synergies between programmes should be fully exploited. For example, food or cash for work projects should concentrate on building productive infrastructure such as irrigation, rural transport and markets. Potential beneficiaries must be made aware of the existence of Social Safety Nets (SSNs). Coverage of SSN must be expanded to include the poor, vulnerable and socially excluded residents of urban areas which are ever-growing due to migration to the cities by those looking for new economic opportunities and by those that have lost their land due to environmental disasters. Safety nets need to work in conjunction with an effective preparedness and disaster response system for most vulnerable areas of the country which includes an effective early warning system that will enable timely responses to sudden food needs due to disasters (see Sub-programme IV.1.1.). IV.2.3. Introduce nutrition-sensitive social safety net programmes (SSNP), including food fortifi cation, especially for mothers and children Social protection is one of the key strategies to tackle malnutrition. However, cash or in-kind transfer itself does not have direct impacts over better nutrition outcomes. While the food safety net coverage is important to ensure that all vulnerable groups, especially those nutritionally vulnerable, receive adequate food, it should also be regarded as an opportunity to fully secure nutrient needs. For example, the micronutrient-fortified rice that is distributed to vulnerable targeted groups through the Vulnerable Group Development (VGD)27 and Vulnerable Group Feeding (VGF) or sold at a subsidised price through Open Market Sales (OMS) should be scaled up. Other forms of nutrient supplementation or/and food enrichment may be investigated and foods other than grain with high nutrient content could be distributed such as dried fish, fish powder or pulses. Use of potatoes to diversify diets and as a cereal substitute is also being explored, given its ability to blend well with cereals, lentils and other foods in preparations. It will also help to enhance the energy value of diets and reduce the dependence on rice. Cash transfer with conditionality on participation in health or nutrition education programmes or no conditional cash or in-kind transfer combining nutrition education can maximise potential changes in the purchase and consumption of specific selected foods. Regular, predictable and sustainable financing for SSNP should also be ensured. In order for the SSNP to be more nutrition-sensitive, it should seek to reach the nutritionally vulnerable, incorporate explicit nutrition objectives and indicators and promote strategies that enable households to access healthy and sustainable diets as well as health care. School feeding programmes will be expanded and used as a medium to foster good food habits and healthy dietary practices among children. 27MoWCA supported by WFP tested the distribution of fortified rice together with training and cash grants for investment to VGD women. Since the result of this pilot was positive, more than USD 1 million have been allocated by MoWCA to distrib ute fortified rice in 35 upazilas covered by the VGD programme in 2017/18. 31Second Country Investment Plan The Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Social Protection held in Dhaka in December 2017 concluded that taking nutrition-sensitive approaches in social protection programmes can accelerate the reduction of malnutrition in Bangladesh and contribute to achieving SDG2 “End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture”. For instance, a social transfer combined with a high-quality behaviour change communication was proved to be an effective method ology to reduce stunting. The Symposium also recommended: (i) targeting nutritionally vulnerable groups, such as 0-4 years old children, adolescents, pregnant women, lactating mothers, as well as those in urban areas because the current SSNs cover only 9 percent of the urban population, while the rural SSNs’ coverage is 30 percent; (ii) having nutrition objectives and related indicators explicitly in all programmes and projects of the concerned ministries and organisations and thereby monitoring progress and impacts on nutrition more effectively; and (iii) improving the quality of public services, mainly health services, that are linked closely with nutrition outcomes but are far inadequate to meet the need of target populations. The implementation of these recommendations requires inter-sectoral efforts by various stakeholders. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations Twenty projects are ongoing in this category, including Directorate of Primary Education’s (DPE) School Feeding programme. The two main pipeline projects in terms of financial needs belong to the Department of Cooperatives and are the ‘Livelihood improvement of disadvantaged women by rearing cows’ and ‘Livelihood improvement of the disadvantaged women’. Additional considerations: The GoB is planning to gradually switch its food-based programmes to cash-based ones, using the financial sector based G2P (Government to Person) system. This means that awareness raising on what adequate diets are will become paramount since the opportunity that food-based programmes currently provide to enhance vulnerable people’s diets will disappear. The GoB will need to ensure that the recommended diets are affordable by those at the lower end of the wealth scale. The distribution of fortified foods should not contravene the Breast-Milk Substitutes, Infant Foods, Commercially Manufactured Complementary Foods and the Accessories Thereof (Regulation of Marketing) Act 2013 which aims to ensure that breast milk and homemade nutritious foods are preferred to any manufactured food. 32 Second Country Investment Plan OUTCOME V. Strengthened enabling environment and cross-cutting programmes for achieving food and nutrition security Programme V.1. Improved food safety, quality control and assurance, awareness on food safety and hygiene Expected programme aggregate output: Food safety is improved through the introduction of good practices at all steps of the food supply chain complemented by awareness raising and measures to ensure the conformity of foods for consumption. Justification for this programme: Contamination and adulteration throughout the food chain remains a critical problem for Bangladesh. Heavy metals and trace elements accumulate in bio systems through irrigation water and soils contaminated by industrial discharge, fertiliser use, sewage and waste, eventu ally entering the food chain. Chemical contamination also occurs due to the deliberate mixing of adul terants to food. Bacterial contamination is common during storage, transportation and processing. Stud ies show that many of those handling food -processed or not- are not aware of the existence of food-borne disease and of how cross-contamination can occur. In addition to jeopardising the safety of food, inadequate practices can also weaken its nutritional value. While consumers need to be made aware, standards and procedures need to be adjusted and behaviours need to be modified along with the enforcement of the existing regulatory framework. Capacity strengthening experts at national and sub-national levels in the detection and assessment of food adulteration, contamination and dietary risk surveillance also requires urgent attention. Priority interventions V.1.1. Ensure conformity of foods for consumption through accreditation from certification agen cies, inspection and laboratory services The capacities of laboratories and systems for food quality assurance, safety and control of food and food borne illness surveillance need to be strengthened. Food courts that test for adulteration of food or of the inputs that go into producing and preparing food must be developed throughout the country for greater impact. The process by which requests for risk analysis or specific requests for tests are carried out and results fed back into the food chain production system need to be rationalised. The traceability of produce is also paramount to ensure food safety. The penalties for non-compliance to the laws and regulations need to be commensurate to the fault and need to be enforced. Upgrading testing laborato ries to international accreditation standards, for example Organic, Fair Trade, Global GAP, British Retail Consortium (BRC), will support export compliance, with great income earning potential. Modern food testing techniques should be developed in conformity with the Codex Alimentarius. Investments in ICT are also needed to develop systems for surveillance of food-related disease outbreaks. Labelling (see Sub-programme II.1.1.) is crucial to inform consumers with regards to compliance to standards such as Bangladesh Standards and Testing Institution (BSTI) and Bangladesh Food Safety Authority (BFSA) rules on allergens, product and nutrient claims and needs to be expanded. V.1.2. Introduce and popularise Good Agricultural Practices, Good Aquacultural Practices and Good Husbandry Practices that ensure food safety and quality Farmers must be trained to apply Good Practice codes, standards and regulations which will ensure the safety and quality of produce in the food chain. This will have the additional benefits of improving natu ral resource use, improving workers’ working conditions, and, very importantly, of creating new market opportunities for export in particular. Such improved practices will involve maintaining and improving soil organic matter by methods appropriate to agronomic, environmental and human health require ments. Farmers will also learn the safe use of agrochemicals and prevention of residues from veterinary medications and other chemicals given in feeds from entering the food chain. The non-therapeutic use 33Second Country Investment Plan of antibiotics on animals also needs to be regulated. Finally, the risk of infection and disease needs to be minimised through learning of good pasture management, safe feeding, appropriate stocking rates and ensuring good housing conditions. In order to be able to train farmers, the capacities of trainers -for example extension workers- will need to be enhanced on internationally recognised food control guide lines to ensure safe food production practices. In conjunction with these activities, the Government will need to ensure that adequate standards are in place and will have to ensure compliance to these stand ards by, for instance, regularly checking for adulteration of fertiliser at field level, providing certifica tion to hatcheries complying with set standards as well as to agricultural input providers. It should also ban fish fry and spawn that does not hold a quality certificate. V.1.3. Introduce and scale-up good manufacturing practices (GMP) and good hygienic practices (GHP), including adherence to Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) compliance Post-production good handling practices are also crucial to ensure food safety and quality. Guidelines adapted to Bangladesh should be developed and disseminated through training and multiple forms of communication at all levels of the food processing chain. In particular, training should cover the Codex Alimentarius Commission’s Good Manufacturing Practices and preliminary steps to comply with HACCP systems. The on-farm processing of produce needs to be clean and handled safely. Food should be stored under hygienic and appropriate environmental and sanitary conditions. Clean and appropriate containers should be used for the packing towards transport of food. All food processing should be carried out according to set safety standards. V.1.4. Enhance food safety education, consumer awareness and food safety networks Awareness of the importance of food safety must be raised among different groups: cooks within the household, school children, men who often take care of the food shopping and women given their multi ple roles in the household -preparing the food, distributing it, feeding children, storing it, etc-. Demand for safe food must be created through this increase in awareness. The work undertaken by the Bangla desh Food Safety Network in local communities with individuals able to influence the behaviour of consumers -community and religious leaders, journalists, etc.- should be expanded. The production and distribution of materials that has so far taken place through the Directorate General of Health Services and the Directorate General of Family Planning should be continued, adapted and expanded to DLS, DoF and DAE, and televised messages should go beyond public service messaging by, for example, incorporating them in existing programmes -children’s programmes, popular serials, etc.-. More research in the areas of food safety is critically needed. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations In spite of being considered paramount in ensuring FNS in Bangladesh, this programme is small. The Minis try of Food, however, is planning to establish seven food laboratories throughout the country and the NNS has several components dealing with different aspects of this programme. A component of the LDDMPP also plans to consider these matters. Additional considerations: Safeguarding food safety from the time it is produced until the moment it is ingested involves many regulatory bodies whose responsibilities can sometimes overlap. Coordina tion is therefore vital. The role of the private sector in food production is also crucial and needs to be effectively regulated through dissuasive penalties. Greater coordination on food safety management with concerted efforts of all stakeholders needs to be ensured. Programme V.2. Reduced food losses and waste Expected programme aggregate output: Food losses and waste are minimised throughout the produc tion chain down to consumption by households. Justification for this programme: Reduction of food loss and waste is now part of the 2030 Agenda under SDG 12, which seeks to “ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns”. Target 12.3 34 Second Country Investment Plan under this goal is “for halving per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer levels and reducing food losses along the production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses, by 2030”28. In Bang ladesh, as in the rest of the world, a substantial portion of the food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted. Estimates for post-harvest losses of crops range between 20% and 40% in fruits and vegetables. This is particularly problematic when it concerns nutrient dense produce that are rich in protein and micronutrients -vegetables, fruits, fish, meat and dairy- which are potentially critical for food security and nutrition. Food loss include losses in nutritional value, economic value and food safety (see Programme V.1.). Food waste is an element of food loss and refers to discarding food or using it for non-food uses. Food losses and waste can occur at all stages of the value chain and have very different causes that need to be addressed through different approaches and strategies. There is increas ing awareness of the extent of the food lost and wasted and research is already happening for example to try and recycle food that is generally wasted. Priority interventions V.2.1. Improve methods of measuring food losses and implement appropriate measures to mini mise food losses at farm level More research is needed to identify the reasons underlying harvest losses followed by solutions that could help minimise this problem. Farmers also need to be trained on the best practices to ensure their crops keep healthy and disease-free, for example by sensitising them to the appropriate stage of maturity to harvest crops to maintain their quality even beyond harvest. Measures to stimulate the use of machin ery for harvesting, cold storage facilities that enable farmers to preserve their produce also means that nutritious foods like dairy products, meats and fish can have extended lives that can also help avoid losses. Finally, encouraging partnerships between farmers and NGOs can ensure the harvests take place even when market prices are too low to make it worthwhile for the farmers. The effect of climate change on pests and diseases should not be neglected as these bear a heavy responsibility on harvest losses. V.2.2. Strengthen capacity in post-harvest handling technology and infrastructure (transport, packaging, storage) There is need to develop techniques that will allow the usage -as food or for industrial use- of elements of agriculture produce, such as rice bran, that are usually discarded. Infrastructure needs to be in place to guarantee continuous energy supply and prevent cold chains from being broken, a factor that still accounts for much of the deterioration of food in Bangladesh. The lack of processing facilities is an important reason for food losses especially with regards to seasonal produce for which small to medium producers cannot gain from given the size of the investments required. By encouraging the development of contract farming linkages between processors and farmers and creating an enabling environment for private sector investment, this problem can be circumvented. ICTs can also render food value chains more efficient thus minimising losses. Providing training to those who handle food in the food process ing chain will also contribute to the decline of food spoilage. For the food that is wasted, alternative uses need to be found such as turning it into animal food or compost. V.2.3. Reduce wastage and quality/quantity loss of food products at all stages of marketing and consumption Although the proportion of food waste and losses is lower at the end of the food value chain in a lower middle-income country like Bangladesh, the societal changes that are happening are likely to increase the prevalence of this problem. As the country’s middle class grows, supermarkets are multiplying in the capital and novel processed foods are being sold. Labelling, packaging and pricing strategies e.g. that encourage overbuying all contribute to food waste. Retailers need to be sensitised and incentivised to adopt practices that will minimise the problem. While consumer food wastage is still limited, people need to be made aware of the nutritional losses that can be incurred through certain methods of storage or preparation versus others for example29. Additionally, waste can be minimised by encouraging and promoting the use of underutilised parts of plants -stalks, seeds and leaves 28 The FLW reduction goal was also included as one of the five targets in the zero hunger challenge launched by the UN at the Rio+20 Conference in 2012. 29This may be done in association with the activities under Sub-programme III.1.1. 35Second Country Investment Plan that are nutritious but often discarded. Plate waste should also be controlled by preparing and consum ing appropriate portions of foods in households, hospitals, institutions and communities. This has impli cations for weight control, health and cost issues. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations This programme stands out for the absence of ongoing and pipeline projects. The extensive consulta tions leading to the development of this document clearly flagged the issue of food losses and waste as paramount and the lack of any development investment so far should motivate the GoB and DPs to channel funding towards these issues. Additional considerations: Knowledge and data about food losses and waste is limited in Bangladesh and major efforts will be needed to change this. Bangladesh should play an active role in the internation al initiatives that are taking place in this regard: the Committee of World Food Security (CFS 41st session) has called on public, private and civil society actors to promote a common understanding of Food Loss and Waste (FLW) which will enable adequate monitoring and measurement. Alongside, the SDGs have included a Global Food Loss Index (GFLI) to be developed by FAO for its target 12.3 to ‘by 2030, halve the per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer level, and reduce food losses along production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses’. A Global Initiative on Food Loss and Waste Reduction30 is also bringing together donors, bi- and multi-lateral agencies and financial institutions and private sector partners -the food packaging industry and others- to develop and imple ment the programme on food loss and waste reduction. Programme V.3. Improved information and data for evidence-based monitoring and adjustment of policies and programmes Expected programme aggregate output: FNS-related decisions are based on evidence and high-qual ity, timely and comprehensive food and nutrition security analysis that draws on data and information available in the network of existing sector and stakeholder information systems. Justification for this programme: Monitoring of FNS policies and programmes relies on evidence and indicators produced by a host of institutions. Studies on key drivers of poor dietary diversity and malnu trition and best practices also inform this process. BCC on nutrition skills which is needed across stake holders and sectors must deliver a consistent and effective message built on existing local knowledge attitudes and practices. While there is no dearth of FNS information in Bangladesh, coordination and harmonisation is required to build an effective and operational information system. Priority interventions V.3.1. Produce more reliable and timely FNS information and data through improved informa tion infrastructures, enhanced coordination in data collection and data exchange to improve evidence-based decision making, policy formulation and programming The human and institutional capacities to regularly undertake and analyse food consumption surveys need to be strengthened and food and nutrition security surveillance reinforced, especially to monitor change in diets and nutrient intake of different sections of the population. Human capacities need to be built to systematically integrate the recommendations drawn from these analyses and other studies into new policies and strategies, including in regular reviews of the CIP2. The Food Composition Tables should be regularly updated and should serve to determine the needs for imports given the actual and forecast production of different foods, including micronutrient-rich foods, such as vegetables, fruit, fish, dairy and livestock, in view of the nutritional needs of the country. An important contribution of this data is the generation of food supply databases, not only in terms of quantity, but also in terms of nutrient supply. This information will assist the Government to prioritise policies, strategies and invest ments in food production systems of diverse, nutritious foods to meet the recommended nutrient needs 30SAVE FOOD, led by FAO and Messe Düsseldorf. 36 Second Country Investment Plan of the population, especially vulnerable population groups. The outcomes of these studies should be disseminated widely to all stakeholders for enhanced policy-making. Because the information required to monitor the CIP2 covers so many different domains with very varied sources, infrastructure is needed to develop a comprehensive network of food and nutrition security information system, in line with the creation of a ‘Digital Bangladesh’ as envisioned by Vision 2021. A prerequisite for such system to exist is the harmonisation of food and nutrition security information systems across sectors which considers UN fundamental principles, and quality standards and good practices such as the IMF General Data Dissemination System (GDDS) and Special Data Dissemination Standards (SDDS). Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations Many SDG indicators are relevant to the CIP2 and will be used once they become available. The Bang ladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), as part of the National Strategy for the Development of Statistics (NSDS) Implementation Support Project (2013–2023), is starting to develop projects that will help collect and measure data to fill existing gaps in the SDG results framework but this is not yet included as pipeline projects. The whole NSDS is costed at around US$600 million with four priority areas: improving the quality, coverage, and use of core statistics required for national planning and economic management and for monitoring progress towards national goals; strengthening the professionalism of the NSS; building capacity to collect, compile, disseminate, and, especially, use statistics at the local level; and promoting and strengthening access to and the use of official statistics at all levels of the society, based on an ‘open-data strategy’. The National Information Platform for Nutrition (NIPN) initiative is underway that will complement and support existing FSN databases and tools that can inform policies, interventions and investments. Additional considerations: Coordinating all actors involved in this programme will be challenging given the host of stakeholders involved i.e. data users and producers: the administration of the GoB, Bangladesh’s Parliament, the private sector, universities, research centres, civil society, media etc. as well as international partners. Programme V.4. Strengthened FNS governance, capacity strengthening and leadership across FNS relevant stakeholders Expected programme aggregate output: National capacities to design and implement and monitor policies, investment plans, programmes and legal frameworks are enhanced. Justification for this programme: Embracing a nutrition-sensitive food systems approach for the CIP2 provides a framework that can be more adapted to the complexity of the challenges associated with solving food and nutrition insecurity. Tackling FNS in Bangladesh involves many interrelated actors and requires them to closely coordinate to enhance effectiveness, avoid duplications and exploit synergies. This necessitates enhanced capacities to effectively implement policies and programmes, for continuous monitoring of these policies and programmes based on reliable evidence (see Programme V.3.) that will feed back into revisions of policies and programmes such as the CIP2 and the NPAN2. Close linkages with the numerous national and international FNS frameworks and networks as well as with the Food Planning and Monitoring Committee (FPMC), BNNC and BFSA are important to achieve the National Food Policy and Nutrition Policy goals. Promoting the inclusion of the Right to Food -inclusive of nutrition- as a fundamental principle of state policy can also improve FNS govern ance by improving accountability and eliminating uncertainties with regards to different stakeholders’ roles and obligations. To this end, linkages between CIP2 and NPAN2 implementation and monitoring must be strengthened, and synergies need to be created. 37Second Country Investment Plan Priority interventions V.4.1. Strengthen existing national coordination mechanisms liaising with existing FNS frame works, clusters and networks, including the SUN initiative and networks working towards integrating the Right to Food to the Constitution In addition to technical food security related skills, management and coordination capacities are also needed to successfully operate the numerous linkages between stakeholders, especially in core depart ments of the Ministries of Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock, Food, Health and Family Welfare, Women and Children Affairs, but also with frameworks such as the SUN initiative and networks work ing towards integrating the Right to Food to the Constitution. With regards to food safety, while the 2013 Food Safety Act makes provisions for the regulation of activities relating to food production, the current governance structure needs to be streamlined: a national food control plan is urgently required to delineate responsibilities, facilitate laboratory networking and sharing of data and information under the leadership of the Bangladesh Food Safety Laboratory Network (BFSLN) linking it with relevant authorities such as BSTI. To ensure that all stakeholders understand their role and importance in the execution of FNS policies and programmes, nutrition objectives need to be incorporated in all sector development programmes that concern food systems through trainings, organisation of events, meet ings and publications. V.4.2. Strengthen capacities to design and monitor the new Food and Nutrition Security Policy and implement, monitor and coordinate the CIP2 The ability of the Government to design, monitor and implement the national and international policies, strategies and programmes aiming to achieve food and nutrition security for all -the forthcoming Food and Nutrition Security Policy, CIP2, NPAN2, SDG2, etc.- should continue to be enhanced. The capaci ties of all stakeholders -government, including local government, civil society, and the private sector- to contribute to the development and monitoring and implementation of food systems-related documents also need to be strengthened. Important ongoing and pipeline investment operations The ‘Revitalization, operation, inter-ministerial and multi-sectoral coordination of BNNC and imple mentation of the NNS’ has been included as a pipeline project as well as the MUCH project. This latter project assists the GoB to achieve a strengthened enabling environment for eradicating food insecurity and malnutrition, developing human and institutional capacities for designing and implementing FNS policies and monitoring their implementation, with a specific focus on the Country Investment Plan. Additional considerations: Local Consultative Groups (LCGs) relevant to FNS need to become more active in particular to follow up on decisions taken by the Economic Relations Division (ERD). Also, there is currently no LCG dealing specifically with social protection. Such an entity would be useful to effectively communicate with the GoB’s Central Management Committee on SSNs. BNNC whose responsibilities include providing policy guidance on nutrition, assessing the impacts of the programmes, coordination of nutrition activities across ministries should be made fully functional so as to be able to participate effectively to the CIP2 monitoring. 38 Second Country Investment Plan 39Second Country Investment Plan T ab le 2 .

Anchoring of the CIP2 in FNS national and inter national frameworks A cornerstone of the CIP1 was its harmonisation with existing government policies, programmatic tools and spending plans of all sectors concerned by FNS. In turn, the CIP1 was to become the basis for future FNS-related government plans and for development partners’ strategies and investment plans. Based on the encouraging results of the CIP1, the CIP2 endeavours to ensure a solid anchoring in existing nation al and international frameworks. The breadth of the issues covered by the investment plan implies considering a wide-range of related frameworks. Policy/Institutional framework While the CIP1 organised its investment programmes around the three pillars of the NFP -availability, access and utilisation-, the food systems approach adopted with the CIP2 further broadens the scope of the strategies needed to solve the problems of hunger and malnutrition with the five pillars proposed. This entails building on an extensive number of existing policies, strategies and plans as exposed in Table 3. The CIP2 is expected to play a significant role in meeting the SDGs. It primarily aims to achieve SDG2 ‘End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture’ while also substantially contributing to four other SDGs. SDG2 is by nature multi-sectoral and its achieve ment requires the collaborative efforts of sectors and their relevant institutions, such as line ministries, towards common targets spelled out under SDG2, hence the mobilisation of 18 ministries/divisions and their respective agencies in the formulation of the CIP. Through its food system approach, the CIP2 aims to achieve the five SDG2 targets by setting agreed-upon milestones by 2020 -the timeframe of the CIP-. These five targets are: • 2.1 By 2030, end hunger and ensure access by all people, in particular the poor and people in vulnerable situations, including infants, to safe, nutritious and sufficient food all year round, by the combination of agricultural production (Programmes III.1., III.2. and III.3.) and safety net programmes (Programmes IV.1. and IV.2.); • 2.2 By 2030, end all forms of malnutrition, including achieving, by 2025, the internationally agreed targets on stunting and wasting in children under five years of age, and address the nutri tional needs of adolescent girls, pregnant and lactating women and older persons through improved dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation (Programmes III.1. and III.2.) and safety net programmes (Programmes IV.1. and IV.2.); • 2.3 By 2030, double the agricultural productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers, in particular women, indigenous peoples, family farmers, pastoralists and fishers, including through secure and equal access to land (Programme I.2.), other productive resources and inputs (Programme I.2.), knowledge, financial services, markets and opportunities for value addition and non-farm employment (Programmes II.1. and II.2.) • 2.4 By 2030, ensure sustainable food production systems and implement resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and production, that help maintain ecosystems, that strength en capacity for adaptation to climate change, extreme weather, drought, flooding and other disasters, and that progressively improve land and soil quality (Programmes I.1., I.2. and I.3.) • 2.5 By 2020, maintain genetic diversity of seeds, cultivated plants, farmed and domesticated animals and their related wild species, including through soundly managed and diversified seed and plant banks at national, regional and international levels, and ensure access to and fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from the utilisation of genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge as internationally agreed (Programmes I.1., I.2. and I.3.) • 2.c Adopt measures to ensure the proper functioning of food commodity markets and their derivatives and facilitate timely access to market information, including on food reserves, in order to help limit extreme food price volatility (Programme II.2.) 42 Second Country Investment Plan In addition, the CIP2 aims to substantially contribute to: • SDG1 ‘End poverty in all its forms everywhere’ through increasing incomes from farmers (Pro grammes I.1. and I.3.), value addition from agro-processing (Programme II.1.) and social protection for the most vulnerable so as to reduce extreme poverty (Programmes IV.1. and IV.2.). • SDG3 ‘Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages’ through its Programmes III.1. and III.2. which advocate the prevention and control of NCDs through promotion of dietary guidelines and the prevention of animal cross-contamination for healthy food prepara tion and consumption. • SDG5 ‘Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls’. Women’s empowerment is mainstreamed in the CIP through: (i) the development of gender-sensitive agricultural technol ogies under Programme I given women contribute to at least half of agriculture production; (ii) greater access to inputs by women (Programme I.2. and I.3.); (iii) the empowerment of wom en’s groups as prioritised under several Programmes; (iv) the role of women in family (and children) diets when promoting dietary diversity (Programme II.1.); (v) targeting poor women, single headed households in safety net programmes (Programmes IV.1. and IV.2.). • SDG6 ‘Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all’ through Programme I.2. that promotes access, quality and management of agricultural inputs, including water and land; Programme III.2. that proposes to maximise food utilisation through provision of safe water, improved food hygiene and sanitation; and Programme V.1. that endeavours to improve food safety, quality control and assurance, awareness on food safety and hygiene. • SDG8 ‘Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all’ through strengthening post-harvest value chains with particular focus on MSMEs (Programme II.1.) and ‘Improved physical access to markets, facil ities and information’ (Programme II.2.). • SDG9 ‘Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialisation and foster innovation’ through Programmes II.1. and II.2. which aim, respectively, to strengthen post-harvest value chain with particular focus on MSMEs and improve physical access to markets, facilities and information. The SDG target 9.C to ‘significantly increase access to infor mation and communications technology and strive to provide universal and affordable access to the Internet in least developed countries by 2020’ will also contribute to Programme II.2. • SDG12 ‘Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns’, in particular target 12.3 ‘By 2030, halve per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer levels and reduce food losses along production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses’. This is an important component of Programmes II.1. and II.2. which through investing in infrastructure, such as modern storage facilities or systems that preserve the cold chain, and by promoting the process ing of certain foods, helps reduce wastage. This is also a major purpose of Programme III.1. through setting up targets in consumption and improving nutrition knowledge and of Programme V.1. by improving food safety, quality control and assurance, awareness on food safety and hygiene. But the CIP2 also devotes an entire Programme to this issue (Programme V.2.). • SDG13 ‘Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts’. Thus, Sub-programme I.1.2. promotes the development of technologies and measures to adapt agricultural systems to climate change while Sub-programme IV.1.2. supports the production of disaster resilient nutri tious crops especially by vulnerable populations. • SDG14 ‘Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development’ through its proposed strengthening of suitable shrimp aquaculture and farming systems adapted to geographical zones (Programme I.3.). • SDG17 ‘Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalise the global partnership for sustainable development’ through Programmes V.3. and V.5. which aim to improve information and data for evidence-based monitoring and adjustment of policies and programmes, and improve FNS governance, strengthen capacity and leadership across FNS relevant stakehold ers, respectively. 43Second Country Investment Plan These targets will have to be achieved while mitigating the risk of potential negative effect in particular on two SDGs by incorporating potential trade-offs in the design of the investment programmes: (i) SDG14 ‘Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable develop ment’ and (ii) SDG15 ‘Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustaina bly manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss’. At a global level, Bangladesh has joined ranks with many countries that recognised the importance of a multi-sectoral approach to FNS to improve the plight of future generations by joining movements such as the SUN and REACH alliances. By bringing the Government, UN agencies, research organisations, civil society organisations, the private sector and international development agencies and partners together, the SUN initiative is able to ensure a coherent policy and legal framework and aligns programmes under a common results framework. REACH supports and coordinates actions on nutrition among stakeholders and also promotes a holistic approach to tackling undernutrition. In 2014, UN agencies in the REACH partnership produced a ‘Common Narrative on Undernutrition’ to strengthen their coherence on nutrition as a developmental priority and to set out how they will support the Gov ernment and citizens in scaling up nutrition through multi-sectoral approaches. In 2014, the Government contributed to the development of a South Asia Regional Action Framework for Nutrition (2014), which makes investment in nutrition a developmental priority and encourages SAARC (South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation) countries to prioritise the reduction in child undernutrition. Finally, in 2012, through the World Health Assembly Resolution, Bangladesh pledged to align nutrition in the 7FYP and endorsed a Comprehensive Implementation Plan on Mater nal, Infant and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN). Programmatic and planning mechanisms Vision 2021 and its associated Perspective Plan of Bangladesh 2010-2021 articulate the vision and goals of the Government to achieve prosperity for all by the 50th anniversary of Bangladesh’s inde pendence. The National Sustainable Development Strategy (2010-2021) identifies strategic priority areas to achieve this vision. These documents identify agriculture as still the single largest source of employment, livelihoods and nutrition in the country hence the need to focus on it. But they also flag the need for nutrition-specific interventions that are targeted to the most vulnerable. The specific strate gies to be followed are articulated in the Sixth and Seventh Five Year Plans. The CIP2 is fully aligned with the Seventh Five Year Plan (2016-2020) and the ensuing monitoring of investments foreseen in the CIP2 will help monitor the 7FYP implementation in fields related to FNS. Coherence and coordination with areas of investment foreseen in the Environment, Forestry and Climate Change (EFCC) Country Investment Plan (CIP) 2016-2021 has also been ensured. The Annual Development Programme (ADP) that is developed yearly based on the Five Year Plan (FYP) is used to identify and cost the investment programmes of the CIP2. The Government also aligns its development planning with the Medium-Term Budgetary Framework (MTBF) ensuring that public expenditures evolve around development priorities. Finance and resource mobilisation The 2010 Joint Cooperation Strategy (JCS) was signed by the GoB and 18 DPs in the context of the Paris Declaration on Effectiveness. This document is in the process of being updated but the objective remains to align national and international commitments to support the 7FYP and the achievement of the SDGs. Effectiveness of development assistance is enhanced by creating common platforms for national and sector-based dialogues and facilitating a nationally owned process. Bangladesh continues to be proactive in enabling country-led effectiveness through its involvement in platforms such as the Global Partner ship for Effective Development Co-operation which the country currently co-chairs, the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI) or the Asia-Pacific Development Effectiveness Facility (AP-DEF). 44 Second Country Investment Plan The country now has a dedicated ‘Policy and Development Effectiveness Wing’ in the Ministry of Finance’s ERD which ensures development cooperation is delivering best results in compliance with aid effectiveness indicators. It also helps coordination with donors through the LCGs. The identification of projects falling under the CIP will help the Government rationalise its investments and appeal for funds given the existence of other investment plans with potential overlaps with the CIP2, for example the Environment, Forestry and Climate Change Country Investment Plan or the investment plan associated with the NPAN2. Complementarities should be sought with these other investment plans. In view of the success of CIP1 in providing a common framework to set priorities for FNS investments, the CIP2 is construed in a similar fashion. This tool will enable the Government to mobilise the resourc es needed to attain its objectives for reducing hunger and malnutrition. 45Second Country Investment Plan 46 Second Country Investment Plan T ab le 3 .

Institutional arrangements for coordination and monitoring towards a unified framework for the CIP2 and the SDGs The institutional arrangements behind the formulation, coordination and monitoring of the CIP2 are similar to that of CIP1. These arrangements ensure that all those involved in the food system -whether through the design, implementation or monitoring of policies, regulations, programmes and projects that shape FNS, namely the Government, DPs, but also the private sector, farmer organisations and civil society- are politically engaged and willing to mobilise resources, financial or other, in the most efficient way possible. The CIP2 implementation builds on existing mechanisms for monitoring the progress toward SDGs and the projects financed through the ADP as part of the national planning process. Its monitoring will also be joined to that of the new NFNSP once it has been developed and approved. The CIP2 Results-Based Monitoring31 System consists of regular reviews of progress made in the financial implementation of CIP2 Programmes (Input monitoring) combined with monitoring of progress against achieving CIP2 Outputs and Outcomes. In other words, the CIP2 monitoring is not only concerned with asking 'Are we taking the actions we said we would take?' but also 'Are we making progress on achieving the results that we said we wanted to achieve?' Monitoring involves tracking strategies and actions being taken by partners and other stakeholders, and identifying the new strategies and actions that may be taken to ensure progress towards the most important results. Goal, Outcome and Output monitoring At the level of overall Outcomes and Outputs, the institutional settings for CIP2 monitoring are integrated with those for monitoring SDGs relevant to FNS and the upcoming NFNSP in a unified framework which consist of TTs, Technical Working Groups also called Thematic Working Groups (TWGs), the expanded FPWG and the National Committee (NC), under the authority of FPMC and with support from FPMU32. The Cabinet-level FPMC chaired by the Food Minister includes ministers and secretaries from key sectors and delivers strategic guidance on FNS issues and establishes a high-level commitment to inter-sectoral collaboration. It provides leadership and oversight in the formulation of food policy strategic documents developed by the institutions it oversees. But it also relies on the technical support provided by these same instances which provide feedback based on their monitoring activities (Figure 2). The NC, also chaired by the Food Minister, comprises of the secretaries of key ministries and divisions, heads of universities/research institutions, DPs, private sector and other NGOs. The NC oversees the CIP implementation and monitoring processes. The FPWG, chaired by the Food Secretary, performs the task of coordination and collaboration at the technical and operational level through the five TTs that carry out the monitoring. The FPMU of the Ministry of Food provides technical and operational support to these institutions, and acts as the secretariat of the various instances. In addition to the institutional setup in place for the CIP1, eight TWGs which include focal points from each relevant government sector have been established by FPMU in partnership with 13 ministries33. These TWGs assisted the FPMU in developing the CIP2. 9.

RBM is a broad management strategy aimed at achieving improved performance and demonstrable results. Monitoring is an ongoing process which ensures constant feedback, learning and improving: plans are regularly assessed and discussed based on key monitoring (and evaluation) findings and lessons learned. 32Annex 6 provides the detailed composition of all these institutions. 33See Annex 6 for the composition of the TWGs. 50 Second Country Investment Plan 51Second Country Investment Plan Finally, members of the Local Consultative Group on Agriculture, Food Security and Rural Development (LCG AFSRD) participate in the CIP Annual Review Meetings. The LCG AFSRD is the venue for dialogue between Government and its DPs. LCGs are designed to contribute towards effective and coordinated implementation of national policies, strategies, plans and programmes. Given the alignment of the CIP2 with existing frameworks, the CIP2 tries to align its results framework to the SDG and 7FYP one by incorporating relevant indicators from these documents' results frameworks when relevant. The CIP Results Framework described in Section 10 is the key reference for monitoring the CIP2 Goal, Outcomes and Outputs. Progress is assessed through criteria established by the indicators identified in the CIP2 Results Matrix. Figure 2. Institutional set up for the preparation and monitoring of the CIP2 Input monitoring The monitoring of CIP2 Inputs -the financial aspect of the CIP2- is conducted according to the existing national system for monitoring ADP investments (Figure 3) as part of the existing national planning process which involves the Ministry of Finance and the Implementation Monitoring and Evaluation Division (IMED). The IMED provides aggregated information on the financial progress of investment projects relevant for the CIP while the Planning Commission and line ministries provide information about new project approvals. The information produced by IMED in particular is key to monitoring CIP Programme Outputs and Outcomes. ERD’s membership in the FPWG is critical for assessing DPs' contributions to the CIP2 with inputs from the LCG AFSRD. Similarly, the Finance Division's membership of this institution facilitates consistency of the CIP2 monitoring process with the Medium Term Budgetary Framework process. Thematic Teams Sustain monitoring process at technical and operational levels FPMU Ensures secretarial, technical and operational support National Committee Oversees CIP implementation and monitoring process Food Policy Working Group Facilitates coordination and collaboration of the monitoring process through TTs Food Planning & Monitoring Committee Provides strategic orientation and sets high-level commitment Thematic Working Groups 52 Second Country Investment Plan Figure 3. National monitoring system for ADP investments The CIP2 annual monitoring report The CIP2 Results-Based Monitoring System produces an annual report which is the result of: Progress towards CIP Outcomes and Outputs prepared by the Thematic Teams under the supervision of the extended FPWG. Upon development and approval of the NFNSP and its Plan of Action (NFNSP PoA), these documents will be monitored jointly with the CIP2. Report on financial allocations and execution and progress towards results of CIP2 investment projects, consolidated at CIP2 Programme level. Reports on GoB allocations and donor commitments based on information from the Planning Commission's ADP book for the former, and from ERD for the latter. The key reference for Input monitoring is the CIP project database, which is regularly updated through the national ADP monitoring process. Findings from monitoring ADP investment projects included in the CIP2 are aggregated at CIP2 Programme level. This information is assessed against the findings from the monitoring of other dimensions -Goal, Outcome, and Output- which gives an indication of the relevance of the investment projects to the CIP2 objectives. Key findings from the monitoring reports are analysed and discussed within the TTs and the FPWG for further submission to the NC and FPMC. CIP2 monitoring findings are disseminated and lessons learned are incorporated into the following phases of CIP2 Programme implementation, through the coordination and guidance provided by the NC. Further details of the CIP2 results framework and monitoring system functioning are provided in Section 10 and Annex 6. Individual projects prepare regular financial and activity reports Planning cell of line ministry collects the reports from each PMU and disseminates it IMED collects all project reports, creates a databank, consolidates financial reports and presents it to NEC NEC chaired by the Prime Minister revises financial matters and provides feedback to relevant line ministries Programming Division revises financial matters and decides allocation of new resources MoF's Economic Relations Division (ERD) for donor funded projects Monthly Financial report feedback Activity / technical report feedback Quarterly Annually IMED collects all project reports and creates data bank Finance Division (MTBF) collects expenditure information Prime Minister's Office revises activity reports and provides feedback to line ministries 53Second Country Investment Plan 10. Results framework, indicators of programmes and impact of investments The results framework The CIP Results Planning process is a top-down exercise which answers to the following questions: • In which areas do we have to work to improve food and nutrition security in the country? The answer to this question is the five areas of investment identified by the Government’s TWGs. • What are the programmes to be implemented for contributing to the achievement of the CIP expect ed outcomes? What are the aggregate outputs we want to achieve through the implementation of the CIP2 programmes? This question led to the identification of the 13 CIP2 programmes. • What are the key investment interventions which are required to contribute to the achievement of the CIP2 expected aggregate outputs? The answer provided brought to the identification of 39 priority investment areas. The results that the country wants to achieve through the CIP2 in terms of national food and nutrition security are coherent with the relevant key strategic documents of the country such as the SDGs and the 7FYP. The Results Framework represents also the key reference for guiding CIP2 implementation and for monitoring progress towards the expected results. Figure 4.

Strengthened enabling environment and cross-cutting programmes for achieving food and nutrition security Adequate and stable supply of safe and nutritious food; increased purchasing power and access to food by all; and adequate nutrition for all individuals, especially women and children The CIP2 results are reflected into a three-level results chain which defines a coherent architecture of logically linked expected outcomes, outputs and inputs. The CIP2 results chain planning is based on the logical framework methodology and on the key assumption that the effective implementation of the identified investment interventions will contribute to the achievement of the related expected outputs and outcomes. There are three levels in the results chain (Figure 4): 1. Outcome level: Five expected outcomes that correspond to the five Areas for Investment of the CIP2. 2. Output level: The outputs are linked to each of the 13 programmes of the CIP2. The aggregate output is considered rather than the output of each one of the 39 sub-programmes. Expected outputs are the medium-term development results that interventions seek to support. 3. Input level: Each of the 13 CIP programmes and 39 sub-programmes correspond to a number of specific projects. The monitoring of CIP at input level represents the financial execution of the projects and government and donor commitment, aggregated in the respective area of inter vention and CIP programme. In addition to this framework and in response to requests for elements to gauge the impact of an invest ment programme, such as the CIP1 or CIP2, an analysis of the cost-effectiveness of five selected nutri tion-sensitive sub-programmes of the CIP2 or specific activities/projects is planned. A cost-benefit analysis (CBA) approach will be adopted to this effect. This will help understand the potential impacts of these sub-programmes on achieving the objectives of corresponding key investment programmes. This is a first step towards an understanding of the CIP2’s effect on the country’s FNS outcomes and will lead the way to further evaluations. Indicators Input monitoring is carried out through the examination of financial execution of, and commitments to, the CIP2. For the output to the goal level of the results chain, the results framework matrix (Table 4) shows a set of measurable indicators. Proxy indicators have also been identified to monitor progress in the National Food Policy’s overall goal. For this level and the outcome level, in addition to measurable indicators, baseline figures and targets to be achieved within the timeframe of the CIP2 have been indicated. The latter were agreed through consultations and are consistent with the relevant strategic documents. The baseline information provides the reference against which to measure progress towards the targets. The verification sources are also provided. For the output level, a programme expected aggregate output, proxy indicators, a baseline value and verification sources have been provided at the aggregate output level. SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound) indicators have been chosen to enable regular monitoring. When appropriate, indicators from the SDG and 7FYP results frameworks or existing monitoring frameworks have been adopted to further reinforce the coherence between these documents. When suitable, indicators from the CIP1/NFP Plan of Action results framework have been kept to retain some continuity between the CIP1 and CIP2 monitoring processes. However, some of these indicators are yet to be developed and the Government plans to do so. In such instances, the indicator is listed in italic and will be incorporated into the monitoring process as soon as it becomes available. Findings from the CIP monitoring and evaluation processes will support the assessment of the relevance of the identified investment interventions and the extent to which they contribute to the achievement of CIP outputs and outcomes. 54 Second Country Investment Plan 55Second Country Investment Plan N FP O V E R A L L G O A L n.

Cost and financing In line with the CIP1, cost and financing requirements of the CIP2 are estimated based on: 1. an estimate of available financing of CIP activities from ongoing investment activities financed by the Government and DPs; 2. additional funds required based on the needs to achieve the CIP2 results and outcomes described in Section 10; 3. a priority ranking of different projects based on their relevance to nutrition. A more detailed version of this section with a more extensive description of the data used and method, and an inventory of the projects included in the CIP2 can be found in Annex 5. What is included in the CIP2 and what is not The CIP2 includes public investments between July 2016 and June 2020, i.e. investments channelled through the ADP, which is the government process used to allocate resources on an annual basis in support of investments from existing budget sources and DP contributions. While the food systems approach adopted in the CIP2 (see Section 4) means the breadth of elements and interconnections considered is extensive, not all investments that can potentially affect food and nutri tion security can be included as in some cases, other mechanisms and planning tools are more appropri ate. Thus, the following are specifically excluded from the CIP2 to avoid duplications and set bounda ries to its remit: • purely policy and legal measures - the CIP is a means to implement existing policies; • the distribution of food through the Public Food Distribution System and all safety net programmes which represented 9.55% in 2015/16 of total government spending34, unless they are considered as investments and therefore appear in the ADP35. The CIP2 however does advo cate for investments to enhance access to nutrition-sensitive social protection and safety nets and increased resilience; • subsidies for agricultural inputs, i.e. fertilisers, which are covered by regular budgetary means; • direct transfers from DPs to implementers not linked to the Annual Development Programme; • family planning activities which is the responsibility of public health planning; • private investment, although one important objective of the CIP2 is to finance public goods to stimulate investment by smallholder producers and leverage private investment through the promotion of PPPs. Projects under the CIP2 may therefore enable the creation of PPPs through the provision of technical assistance for their development, and facilitate their operations. While all investments undertaken by the Government are channelled through the ADP, only part of the DP contribution is. The part that is not channelled through the ADP, such as finance to NGOs to under take certain activities, is therefore not included in the CIP2. Finally, because the CIP2 is about nutrition-sensitive food systems, the focus is on projects that are nutrition-sensitive or nutrition-supportive, rather than nutrition-specific which is the purview of the NPAN2. This cost exercise therefore provides an estimate of: 1. the ongoing investments reclassified according to the 13 programmes and 39 sub-programmes; 2. the existing available resources already committed through the ADP, including those financed by the budget and by the DPs; 3. the financial gap to be filled. 34This figure does not include social empowerment projects which would bring this percentage to 13.6% of the total GoB budget. 35This might be the case of employment and income generating safety nets. 65Second Country Investment Plan Two types of figures will be provided: totals and figures ‘prioritised’ according to their role in address ing FNS, as explained below. Identification of projects The Government’s ADP was systematically scrutinised for ongoing projects relevant to the CIP2 programmes. The Planning Commission formulates the ADP in light of the objectives defined in the Five-Year Plan on which the CIP2 is aligned. It is the budgetary tool used to allocate resources on an annual basis in support of investment i.e. excluding current expenditures. IMED documents then provide the financial information required for the CIP2 budgeting, namely: the total project budget, the residual budget for the CIP2 and the yearly expenditure. This information is provided disaggregated by source i.e. Government and development partner. The ADP book also lists pipeline projects which are required to calculate the CIP2 financing gap. In some cases, this information was not included in this document but provided by relevant members of the Government. The exchange rate used for calculation is US$ 1 = 78.4 Taka36. All ongoing and planned interventions of GoB agencies and DPs relevant to the CIP2 are mapped in Annex 5. Classification of projects Over two hundred ongoing projects and over 100 planned interventions37 were identified to be included in the CIP2. Each of these was scrutinised to decide which programme and sub-programme they should be classified under. In some cases, projects have several components, some of which fall under different sub-programmes, or some of which are not relevant to the CIP2. In such instances, when available, the budget allocated to each component was used to apportion the component to the relevant sub-pro grammes. In cases where the budget by component was not available, the proportion allocated under each sub-programme was calculated by weighting all identifiable components equally. Efforts have been made to obtain more detailed information from managers or other stakeholders in ambiguous cases, but responses were not always obtained. Further versions of the CIP2 will endeavour to refine this information. The classification of CIP2 projects according to the programmes and sub-programmes identified based on priorities expressed by stakeholders was assisted by the MAFAP (Monitoring and Analysing Food and Agricultural Policies) programme. This programme is implemented by FAO and seeks to establish country-owned and sustainable systems to monitor, analyse, and reform food and agricultural policies to enable more effective, efficient and inclusive policy frameworks in developing and emerging econo mies. The methodology used by MAFAP can provide useful insights into the composition of public investments in the CIP2. Prioritisation Because the focus of the CIP2 is on nutrition-sensitive food systems, two budgets are provided. One with the full amount of the ongoing and pipeline expenditures and another where these expenditures have been prioritised based on the extent to which projects are bound to have a role in achieving positive nutritional outcomes, with weights associated to their potential impact. This type of analysis advocated by the SUN initiative allows the tracking of resources contributing to nutrition which can help countries prioritise, better plan their resource allocations and advocate for increasing funding. 36This is the Bangladesh Bank exchange rate for July 2016, the beginning of the CIP2. 37The word intervention rather than project has been used as some planned ventures are yet to be shaped into actual projects. 66 Second Country Investment Plan Based on the 2013 Lancet series on Maternal and Child Nutrition, the SUN proposes to classify projects into two groups: nutrition-specific: high-impact nutrition actions that aim to address immediate and some inter mediate causes of malnutrition and undernutrition such as dietary intake and feeding practices. nutrition-sensitive: projects that incorporate nutrition objectives to address critical underlying determinants of undernutrition. Nutrition-sensitive approaches include agriculture; clean water and sanitation; food safety; food losses and waste; education and employment; healthcare; support for resilience and women’s empowerment. For the purpose of the CIP2, three categories of projects are considered: ‘nutrition-sensitive +’: certain interventions categorised by the Lancet as nutrition-sensitive are likely to have a more direct impact on nutritional outcomes e.g. promotion of dietary guidelines linked with national NCD strategies and related nutrition services. They have the potential to be leveraged to serve as delivery platforms for nutrition-specific interventions. They are given a greater weight in the nutrition budget given their more direct impact; nutrition-sensitive; nutrition-supportive: this third category is created for projects that craft an environment that is necessary for nutrition-sensitive or nutrition-specific projects to take place. This is not usually considered in nutrition budgets and yet bears a crucial role, albeit indirect, in the achievement of positive nutritional outcomes. Examples of this are the construction of infrastructure such as roads which will allow access to markets. It is also the case of strengthening of capacities to implement FNS-related policies. Such interventions are often sector-wide in nature which justi fies not including their full cost under the CIP2. The category attributed to each project is indicated in the inventory of projects provided in Table A5.5 of Annex 5. Weights are attributed to each type of project, yielding a nutrition-sensitive CIP2 budget. These weights are as follows: 100% for ‘nutrition-sensitive +’ projects 75% for nutrition-sensitive projects 50% for nutrition-supportive projects. These numbers have been selected to be able to prioritise the CIP2 according to its nutrition orientation but have no justification other than wanting to create a hierarchy in the degree of relevance to nutrition. Such exercises have been carried out in other countries, but the breadth of values chosen reflects the arbitrariness of such endeavour. For example, drinking water supply projects have been given a weight ranging from 10% to 100% in different country scenarios38. Estimates The CIP2 is estimated at a total of US$ 9.25 billion as of June 2016, USD$ 3.6 billion of which are pipe line projects for which funds need to be mobilised. DPs contribute to 38.8% of the ongoing projects (Table 5). When weighing the budget according to its nutrition sensitivity, its total declines to US$ 5.6 billion, or by 43%, and the financing gap to US$ 2.4 billion, or by 34% (Table 6). The lower proportion al decline for the pipeline projects compared to the ongoing projects indicates the planned projects have a greater nutrition focus or a less nutrition-supportive nature than the operationalised projects. 38 As reported by SUN (2017) Budget analysis for nutrition: a guidance note for countries 67Second Country Investment Plan Even after giving greater weight to nutrition-sensitive projects, the overall CIP2 budget is highly biased towards Pillar I ‘Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets’ as shown in Figure 5. This propensity is even more evident when measured by the nutrition weighting. While it reflects the country’s focus on developing agriculture to respond to the ever-increasing food requirements, it is also attributed to the fact that projects needed under this pillar are often costly. The development by Bangladesh Chemical Industries Corporation (BCIC) of a fertiliser factory alone costs over a billion US dollars. Projects related to irrigation which fall under this pillar also require substan-tial amounts of funding. The small share of Pillar III ‘Improved dietary diversity, consump tion and utilisation’ is explained by the fact that many projects falling under this category are nutri tion-specific, therefore falling outside the remit of the CIP2. However, it is a clear indication that more efforts are needed in this area to support the NPAN2 through nutrition-sensitive projects, espe cially given that nutrition-sensitive programmes can serve as delivery platforms for nutrition-specif ic interventions, potentially increasing their scale, coverage, and effectiveness (see the Lancet series on Maternal and Child Nutrition, 2013). The fact that Pillar V ‘Strengthened enabling environment and cross-cutting programmes for achieving food and nutrition security’ only represents 3% of the public investment highlights the need for an urgent mobilisation of funds especially for programmes V.1. and V.2. on ‘Improved food safety, quality control and assurance, awareness on food safety and hygiene’ and ‘Reduced food losses and waste’ which are essential to attain FNS targets and require significant investments. The MAFAP classification shown in Figure 6 shows a functional decomposition of the nutri tion-weight-ed CIP2 budget according to the economic characteristics of the expenditures. Information on the com-position of the expenditure can be a useful tool for policy makers to further analyse the com position of their investments in FNS. Specifically, in the case of the CIP2, roads, irrigation, water and flood man-agement, payments to suppliers -mostly investments on fertiliser factories- account for over half of the nutrition-weighted CIP2 expenditure. This is further illustrated by Table 7, which shows that over half of the CIP2 budget is allocated to nutri-tion-supportive projects. While such endeavours are necessary to bring about the changes needed, the Government will need to refocus its own and DPs’ spending priorities towards nutri tion-sensitive projects if it wants to achieve the CIP2’s goals. 68 Second Country Investment Plan 69Second Country Investment Plan T ab le 5 .

To achieve its outcomes, the CIP needs to be implemented through coherent planning, budgeting and financing processes that harness all resources, while building on existing synergies and avoiding duplications. Efforts are needed to rationalise the mobilisation of financial resources by ensuring: • Regular consultations on the mobilisation and use of financial resources with FPMU, the Ministry of Finance, the Planning Commission, and all line ministries and DPs involved in the CIP2; • Quality monitoring of disbursed, available and pledged financial resources followed by an effective dissemination of the results; and • Regular fora to promote private investment in FNS involving the private sector, farmer organi sations, CSOs, line ministries and the Chamber of Commerce. Keeping track of the spending progress is particularly important in view of the limited execution perfor mance observed in the monitoring of the first CIP. To this effect, investment absorption capacity must be enhanced. This requires capacity development support of stakeholders, and especially government agencies involved, as is proposed under Programme V.4. Finally, the GoB and the DPs should focus their efforts on financing the resource gap and prioritising nutrition-sensitive activities. They should also invest in projects that will help leverage investments and resources from the private sector, farmer organisations and CSOs. Dialogue will be required throughout to avoid duplications of efforts in a country with a high density of donors and NGOs and good practices will be actively sought to be scaled up, especially those relating to contractual arrangements e.g. contract farming and supply chains, and PPPs. 74 Second Country Investment Plan 75Second Country Investment Plan 12. Challenges and risks The implementation of the CIP2 is associated with a number of challenges or risks shown in Table 8. Many of these risks and mitigation factors are similar to those identified for the CIP1, and efforts should be made to learn from the past experience in reducing these risks and minimising their effects. Table 8. Risks associated with the CIP2 implementation and possible mitigation solutions Critical risks measures Risk mitigation Lack of adequate political commitment and ownership from GoB and DPs which may give rise to the development of uncoordinated projects which duplicate efforts and miss out on potential synergies Keep a high political profile and strategic focus Strengthen the dialogue with DPs and involve them in the review of the results of the annual monitoring Ensure that CIP2 implementation arrangements are mainstreamed into different country systems: planning, budgeting, financial management and reporting are gradually aligned Further develop the country’s capacity to coordinate investments effectively Continue involving the Finance Division and ERD in implementation arrangements Regularly bring together the several instances involved in the CIP2 implementation and monitoring for possible reviews and changes to the document Ensure the CIP2 is seen as a ‘living document’ that may evolve and react dynamically and promptly to emerging issues Develop a better understanding of the total amounts and the composition of FNS expenditure as well as of the agents that benefit from such investments. Achieving this will require an in-depth assessment of FNS public expenditures. Establish synergies with NPAN2 and the NSSS Insufficient fund mobilisation Continue the regular monitoring of CIP2 results which includes the progress in expenditure and resource mobilisation Ensure the results of the monitoring exercise feeds into the GoB’s planning and financial systems - 7FYP, MTBF, ADP and into the Economic Relations Division’s outreach to motivate new/additional funds from development partners Develop gender-disaggregated monitoring and evaluation indicators Conduct awareness-raising training for all stakeholders Conduct awareness-raising training for all stakeholders Weak coordination between the many institutions involved in the implementation and monitoring may result in weak effec tiveness and delivery and a failure to react to emerging issues Lack of an overall understanding of the state of FNS expenditure in Bangladesh given the many relevant policies/strategies and actors. The CIP2 alone only focuses on development expenditures Insufficient gender mainstreaming thus missing out on the potential provided by women in solving some of the FNS problems through their role in agriculture, as carers etc. Insufficient integration of environmental issues in FNS projects 76 Second Country Investment Plan Commission research to better understand the impact of climate change on FNS Ensure close coordination and interaction with the Bangladesh EFCC CIP 2016-2021 Invest in Research and Development Promote learning Scale up good practices Lack of involvement of private sector, farmers organisations and other CSOs Prioritise investments with high leverage effect on other partners’ investments Sustain dialogue with private sector, farmer organisations and CSOs Critical risks measures Risk mitigation Tendency to rely on old solutions with limited interest in innovative ones, thus missing out on opportunities to acceler ate the achievement of CIP2 outcomes Annexes Annex 1: List of consultations 1.

Particularly highlighted was the reduction of BOAA content in khesari and reduction of erucic acid in mustard oil. • Conduct strong agricultural extension servic es, in terms of: √ Diversifying food production, including homestead and rooftop gardening, crop diversification, small-scale fish culture and livestock husbandry; √ Shifting consumption patterns towards healthier diets, reflecting dietary diversi ty -yellow, orange, dark green and leafy vegetables, fruits, dairy products, pulses, fish and meat- akin to the nutrition plate endorsed by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare; √ Raising awareness on food hygiene, ideal cooking practices and sanitation; √ Raising awareness on food safety and quality, food adulteration and contamina tion and mitigation measures targeted for various actors along the food chain; √ Building strong linkages with nutri tion-specific interventions such as the promotion of exclusive breastfeeding and complementary feeding practices. • Promote adequate use of agricultural inputs such as pesticides, insecticides and fertilisers for safer food through the integral role of extension services. • Increase the productivity of rice, which is relevant and provide further emphasis on this to free land and water resources for produc tion diversity -crop diversification, horticul ture, livestock, etc.-. • Collaborate among sub-sectors in agriculture to integrate nutrition outcomes – crops, fisheries, livestock, horticulture and forestry and multi-sectorally with health particularly with NNS, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), education, gender and climate change. • Improve post-harvest facility through: √ Increasing storage facilities for food safety issues; √ Improving processing and preservation techniques -handling, transportation, packaging and storage, etc.- for perisha ble fruits and vegetables; √ Agro-processing of small indigenous fish (SIS) into chutney and fish powder – particularly mola, dhela and puti as per the National Nutrition Policy (NNP), but also other fish that are rich in protein need to be considered. • Consider biofortification and HYVs as impor tant measures for nutrition holistically along with other measures to better target the 1,000-days window of opportunity for nutri tion. • Improve access to land and resources for smallholders for production diversification. • Include focus on obesity in policy and programming alongside undernutrition. • Establish a common database relating nutri tion and agriculture. • Scale up known successes – linking govern ment institutional arrangement with commu nity-based approaches. Annex 2: Main issues raised during the consultations and recommendations for action Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture in Dhaka, BARC Auditorium on the 10th of April 2016 The Ministry of Agriculture and MUCH project in collaboration with BARC, Civil Society Alliance for SUN, Helen Keller International, International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and World Fish organised a Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture in order to prioritise and address nutrition-sensitive approaches and actions in FNS. The inauguration of the symposium was attended by around 250 representatives from the Government, development partners, academia, private sector and the media. This was followed by a technical session in the afternoon, which was attended by around 100 participants. The symposium pooled together the thoughts of this group of food, policy and agriculture experts in a crucial discussion to develop a common understanding of the potential and the role of nutrition-sensitive agriculture (NSA) in Bangladesh. The following key issues, points and recommendations were raised: Technical Symposium on Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture in Dhaka, BARC Auditorium on the 10th of April 2016 79Second Country Investment Plan • Maintain the natural resource base. • Expand markets and market access for vulner able groups, particularly for marketing nutri tious foods. • Promote multi-agency and multi-sectoral collaboration to build common indicators. • Develop national capacity - Agricultural Policy Support Unit (APSU), BIRTAN, BARC, BFSA and FPMU -the last two are supported by FAO. • Promote further consultations with other sectors: health, WASH, education, gender, environment and climate change; land and water resources. • Enhance private sector engagement through: √ Building awareness of nutrition along the food chain -maintain quality control, food safety and nutrient contents in food and of good agricultural practices; √ Facilitating better access to low-interest loans for small and medium enterprises for maintenance of quality and food safety along the food chain; √ Monitoring quality of produce through grading and certification; √ Attaining mainstream export markets, but not at the cost of domestic consump tion. • Engage with media for strengthened BCC. • Explore scale up of rooftop gardens in the urban context. • Explore the potential in avocado technology. • Engage with the Ministry of Finance to lever age nutrition-sensitive agriculture finance. • Strengthen capacity of NNS to coordinate and give more coordinating authority. • Provide further attention to the major issue of food safety – BFSA has a large role to play. • Integrate nutrition more strongly into CIP monitoring reports produced by FPMU. • Use of land mapping and crop zoning to achieve self-sufficiency in major vegeta bles and reduction of food losses. • Strengthen/institute biosecurity measures, practices, livestock productivity, and increase milk production. • Set nutrient targets in food production across crop, fisheries and livestock sectors. • Apply zone specific and location specific technologies to address issues of climate change. • Improve fish seed quality. • Increase/reactivate of the budget for NARS for more research. • Need more and better inputs. • Assess irrigation needed for crops. • Ensure tested quality seeds, new varieties and seed development; adequate and appropriate credit support for female farmers and share cropping farmers; supply of good quality and unadulterated fertilisers, pesticides and feeds; stopping loss of arable land and fertility. • Check cost and returns of the farmer to prevent distortions created by middlemen. • Boost food processing and food preservation industries. • Identify bottlenecks in processing and packaging. • Promote and support household level process ing and value addition. • Introduce methods of processing micronutri ent-rich foods. • Stimulate non-government initiatives for inno vation and research on appropriate technolo gies.

The following points and issues were raised in the open, group discussions and plenary sessions in the light of the programmes and priority interventions of CIP2. Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets Post-harvest transformation, value addition, nutrition and supply Increased dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation Enhanced access to social protection and safety nets and increased resilience Strengthened enabling environment for achieving food and nutrition security Rural consultation in Khatail Village of Dacop Upazila, Khulna District, Khulna Division on 15th of May 2017 The farmers’ consultation included 54 participants, including 17 women farmers, and identified the following priorities for investment. 82 Second Country Investment Plan Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets Agriculture Agricultural inputs and water resources Post-harvest transformation, value addition, nutrition and supply • Improve training for farmers especially with regards to use of technology. • Build storage facility of grains, fruits and vege tables for gaining profitable price. Fisheries • Facilitate the process for ensuring quality seeds at growers’ level since fish seed production in Bangladesh is dominated by the private sector. • Establish fish seed multiplication farms in every upazila. • There is a lack of training, manpower and lack of knowledge in the fishery sector at the grass roots’ level. Livestock • Support in artificial insemination. • Address foot and mouth disease. • Make good quality cows available locally for rearing and adequate milk production. • Ensure training reaches farmers that need it instead of those that are well connected. • Improve government training. • Harvest water for cultivation as well as for drinking and cooking. • Maintain sluice gates to control saline water intrusion. • Reserve surface water for use in farming. • Continue river dredging. • Recover government canals from occupiers and re-excavate them for farmers’ use. • Dig canals and construct embankments on the side of canals/ponds/khals as necessary. • Stop the leasing of canals. • Improve water distribution systems and strengthen canal digging both for irrigation and for the benefit of fish production. • Deal with soil salinity. • Increase loan facilities for farmers on easy terms and conditions. Also, farmers often do not know about the available loan facilities in the banks so this needs to be transmitted to them. • Make quality, safe and pure seeds available from the Bangladesh Agricultural Develop ment Corporation (BADC). • Address the high cost of fish feed: tk. 50 to 60 per kg and tk. 90 per kg for prawn. • Make more quality affordable food for cows e.g. rice husk, gur and khoil available. • Develop cold storage as it is inexistent or insufficient in some areas. • Establish milk chilling centres for value addi tion as well as marketing facilities for eggs, meat and milk. • Develop facilities for the production of yoghurt as a way to prolong the life of milk. • Teach milk producers to produce ‘channa’39 for the production of sweets which can last longer. • Develop and adapt marketing infrastructure for all produce, including fish. • Try to solve the problem of farmers not obtain ing a fair price of their produce. Middlemen and syndicates seem to be the ones that gain most in the food value chain.This applies to crop, fish and livestock agriculture. Encourage the formation of farmer societies to promote their interests. • Develop transport and communication for better market links. 39Cottage cheese 83Second Country Investment Plan • Promote the production of high value crop and ensure new varieties are developed. • Local produce needs to be promoted. • Organise hands-on nutrition training for farm ers. • Use mobile applications to communicate agricultural information to farmers. • Promote shrimp cultivation. • Organise production based on crop zoning to make optimal use of land. • Address problem of water salinisation and dearth of sweet water needs. • Fish-friendly dam building should be consid ered. • Develop medicine for cattle to prevent diseas es. Resistance to antibiotics is already a prob lem in this area. • Develop horticulture to meet nutritional needs of the people. • Linkages between research-extension and marketing need to be strengthened. • Promote the formation of farmers' organisa tions • Strengthen market linkages. • Link producers to consumers by enhancing communication means through ICTs for example. • Improve post-harvest collection and storage systems with the introduction of improved technology. • Reduce post-harvest loss and ensure food safety measures along the value chain, establishment of Post-Harvest Service Centre (PHSC) may be actively considered in potential locations. • Build modern growth/trade/collection centres for agri-products along with good trans port/communication facilities e.g. cooling vans and storage and packaging plants. In particular, expand cold storage system for perishable items. • Promote the establishment of agro-based processing industries e.g. for the processing of guava, coconut, coco dust, golden apple, fish, especially at the local level. • Enhance women’s participation in fish, fruits and vegetable production and processing. • Recognise and value the women household activities. Increased dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation • Ensure constant availability of medicines in community clinics. Enhanced access to social protection and safety nets and increased resilience • Include nutritious food items in the SSNs programmes that distribute food.

Regional Consultation at Hotel Grand Park, Barisal on the 16th of May 2017 Twenty-three representatives of local public institutions and NGO officials attended this consultation, including an Additional Director from DAE, Barisal District who chaired the session. The special guests were a Deputy Director from the Barisal Divisional Livestock office and a Deputy Director from the Barisal Department of Fisheries. What follows summarises the priorities for investment flagged for the Barisal region. Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets Agricultural inputs and water resources Post-harvest transformation, value addition, nutrition and supply 84 Second Country Investment Plan • Invest in consumers’ behaviour change com munication, nutrition education/training with special emphasis on the elderly, women and children. • Spread nutrition messages through SMS, electronic and print media. • Establish a reliable database of vulnerable people and/or beneficiaries. • Ensure dissemination of nutrition awareness messages before and after disasters. • Utilise technology e.g. SMSs to distribute funds under social protection schemes. • Incorporate micronutrient-enriched foods in food-based SSN programmes and ensure such foods can be afforded by vulnerable groups. • Promote school feeding programmes for disad vantaged children. Food Waste • Establish waste management systems as well as waste recycling. • Carry out cooking demonstrations to show how to minimise food waste. • Develop appropriate packing so that fewer quantities are spoilt. • Sensitise farmers to improve storage. Governance • Strengthen the national level nutrition coordi nation body. • Inform policy by carrying out research at regional level. Food Safety • Strengthen food safety and biosecurity in poul try, fish and crop production, and strengthen monitoring systems through law enforcement. • Ensure food safety protocols are maintained at all steps from farm to fork. • Increase awareness programmes. Agriculture • Strengthen early warning systems. • Try to solve labour shortages during harvest ing season which mean that labour costs are high, thus reducing farmers’ profit. Fisheries • Increase availability of adequate and quality fish seed/fingerlings. Livestock • Promote use of fresh milk: producers find it difficult to compete with imported powdered milk. • Work on reducing the role of middlemen/syn dicates who distort markets. For example, this can affect the price of chicks which fluctuates considerably; it can more than treble within 5 days. • Promote buried water pipeline irrigation. • Provide low interest agriculture loans to farmers. • Control the price of fish which is too costly as well as the price of vitamins and medicines required. • Enhance the availability of medicines for livestock in local offices. • Ensure that cattle/poultry feed is unadulterat ed and of high quality as well as affordable. Increased dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation Enhanced access to social protection and safety nets and increased resilience Strengthened enabling environment for achieving food and nutrition security Rural consultation in Rakudia Village, Dehergoti Union of Babugonj Upazila, Barisal District, Barisal Division on 16th of May 2017 Forty-three farmers, including seven women, attended the discussion and raised the following issues and needs for investment. Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets Agricultural inputs and water resources 85Second Country Investment Plan Post-harvest transformation, value addition, nutrition and supply Increased dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation Enhanced access to social protection and safety nets and increased resilience Strengthened enabling environment for achieving food and nutrition security Food Safety • Special training, including biosecurity, is required for the shrimp/fish and livestock farmers Regional consultation at Motel Shaikat in Chittagong on the 21st of May 2017 Sixteen representatives of local public institutions and other stakeholders participated in this meeting with a Health Divisional Director chairing the session. A Deputy Director from the Chittagong Depart ment of Livestock Services and a District Fisheries Officer from the Chittagong Division Department of Fisheries were also present as special guests. Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets • Promote milk farming clubs and build milk preservation systems. • Strengthen market structure and communica tion systems for agri products. • Develop milk chilling centres to enable dairy farmers to obtain fair prices. • Ensure availability and supply of medicine in Health Centres and community clinics. • Ensure regular presence of Bachelor of Medi cine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) doctors in community clinics. • Strengthen nutrition awareness programmes. • Review and check process whereby SSN bene ficiaries are selected as there is evidence to suggest that influential -and sometimes afflu ent- families benefit from these programmes. • Introduce insurance system. • Broaden the use of ICTs for agriculture exten sion purposes. • Enhance farmers’ knowledge of nutrition and the need for diet diversity. • Establish ‘safe shelter’ to protect animals from salinity, cyclone and other disasters. Agriculture • Continue mapping and zoning for crop produc tion. • Promote the cultivation of fruits, especially mango in hilly areas. • Promote pulses cultivation. Fisheries • Promote fish rearing in the hilly areas, espe cially of eels. • Restore and sustain local varieties of fish. • Strengthen fish cultivation in sweet water reser voirs in the hilly areas. • Add government officials from the fishery and livestock departments below the upazila level similarly to the sub-assistant agriculture officers of the Agriculture Ministry and health workers of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW). • Develop fish cultivation in areas affected by salinity. 86 Second Country Investment Plan 87Second Country Investment Plan The meeting included 17 representatives of local public institutions and other stakeholders, including an Additional Director from the Rangpur District Department of Agriculture Extension who chaired the session. A Deputy Director from the Rangpur Department of Livestock Services and from Rangpur Department of Agriculture Extension were present as special guests. The following points and issues were raised in the open, group discussions and plenary session: Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets • Increase productivity through mechanisation and technology since land for agriculture is becoming scarcer due to other pressures e.g. house building and industrialisation. • Zinc fortified varieties need to be promoted as well as vegetables strong in Agricultural inputs and water resources • Disseminate sustainable practices with regards to pest and insect management. A lot of progress has already been made; fewer pesticides and insecticides are being used than before (and use of pheromones instead). • Use Teesta barrage canals used for seasonal fish culture with appropriate fish species. essential nutrients such as carrots and sweet gourd. • Promote rice-vegetables based cropping patterns. • Farm owners consume animal protein and vegetables but not enough. • Develop healthy soils to produce food through research by the Soil Research Institute. • Expand soil testing through mobile soil testing labs to match soils to crops. Post-harvest transformation, value addition and supply • Develop agro-based industry in this area for local produce. For example, potatoes are grown in abundance, but no post harvest processing takes place due to lack of facilities. The same applies to milk which is therefore wasted if not sold. Concurrently, powdered milk is imported. • Establish cold storage at district level and upazila levels as well as cool chain development. Specialised cold storage is needed for example for lychees in regions like Rangpur. • Develop growth centres and link them to potential markets. • Understand the role of middle men given the huge differences between retail and farm gate prices. • Low cost packaging is needed for milk. Increased dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation • Develop adequate and relevant nutrition education materials. • Strengthen nutrition awareness and training programme to build new food habits, especially for the younger generations. These trainings should include nutrition targets. • Encourage milk and egg consumption to improve the population’s nutritional status. This would also encourage production. • Dispel the widespread idea that milk or eggs are in fact bad for your health. • Run awareness building programmes to promote dietary diversity, including those for farmers who rear animals but do not necessarily consume animal protein. • Carry out more research on biofortification to try and create more fortified foods. Regional consultation in the Parjatan Motel, Rangpur, Rangpur Division on the 22nd of May 2017 88 Second Country Investment Plan Enhanced access to social protection, safety nets and increased resilience • Promote online money transfers. • Establish care homes for elderly people and SSNs should ensure they cover old vulnerable people. • Strengthen school feeding programmes by incorporating milk and egg in what is offered. This should also be the case for other food-based safety nets. • Extend zinc fortification to all the rice distributed through SSNs. • Strengthen awareness building programmes for improving dietary diversity of safety net beneficiaries. Governance, cross policy implementation and FNS information Food safety • Develop state-of-the-art laboratories that can examine foods for heavy metals like lead and chromium. • Ensure GAP, GMP, GHP and good practices in every step of the food chain. • Educate people. Many are still unaware of the risks and you will find birds still slaughtered on the markets.

All these actors could be involved in rendering existing safety nets more nutrition-sensitive. International DPs involved World Bank, JICA, WFP, UNFPA, USAID, EKN, DflD, EU, LCG sub groups on Disaster and Emergency Relief and Poverty Additional considerations • The GoB is planning to gradually switch its food-based programmes to cash-based ones, using the financial sector based G2P system. This means that awareness raising on what adequate diets are will become paramount since the opportunity that food-based programmes currently provide to enhance vulnerable people’s diets will disappear. • The GoB will need to ensure that the recommended diets are affordable by those at the lower end of the wealth scale. • The distribution of fortified foods should not contravene the Breast-Milk Substitutes, Infant Foods, Commercially Manufactured Complementary Foods and the Accessories Thereof (Regulation of Marketing) Act 2013. 140 Second Country Investment Plan Programme V.1.

The ‘Revitalization & operation (Inter-ministerial & multi sectoral coordination) of BNNC’ component of the NNS has been included as pipeline project as well as the MUCH project. This latter project assists the GoB to achieve a strengthened enabling environment for eradicating food insecurity and malnutrition, developing human and institutional capacities for designing and imple menting food security policies and monitoring their implementation, with a specific focus on the Country Investment Plan. Annex 5. Details of the cost and financing of the CIP2 This annex provides the data and a detailed explanation of the method used to estimate the cost and financing requirements for the CIP2 as well as an inventory of all the ongoing and pipeline projects included in the CIP2. The cost and financing requirements of the CIP2 are estimated based on: 1. an estimate of available financing of CIP2 activities from ongoing investment activities financed by the Government and DPs; 2. additional funds required based on the needs to achieve the CIP2 results and outcomes described in Section 10; 3. a priority ranking of each project on the basis of their relevance to nutrition. What is included in the CIP2: public investments The CIP2 includes public investments between July 2016 and June 2020, i.e. investments channelled through the ADP, which is the government process used to allocate resources on an annual basis in support of investments from existing budget sources and DP contributions. While the food systems approach adopted in the CIP2 (see Section 4) means the breadth of elements and interconnections considered is extensive, not all investments that can potentially affect food and nutrition security can be included as in some cases, other mechanisms and planning tools are more appropriate. Thus, the following are specifically excluded from the CIP2 to avoid duplications and set boundaries to its remit: • purely policy and legal measures - the CIP is a means to implement existing policies; • the distribution of food through the Public Food Distribution System and all safety net programmes which represented 9.55% in 2015/16 of total government spending42, unless they are considered as investments and therefore appear in the ADP43. The CIP2 however does advocate for investments to enhance access to nutrition-sensitive social protection and safety nets and increased resilience; • subsidies for agricultural inputs, i.e. fertilisers, which are covered by regular budgetary means; • direct transfers from DPs to implementers not linked to the ADP; • family planning activities which is the responsibility of public health planning; • private investment, although one important objective of the CIP2 is to finance public goods to stimulate investment by smallholder producers and leverage private investment through the promotion of PPPs. Projects under the CIP2 may therefore enable the creation of PPPs through the provision of technical assistance for their development, and facilitate their operations. While all investments undertaken by the Government are channelled through the ADP, only part of the DP contribution is. The part that is not channelled through the ADP, such as finance to NGOs to undertake certain activities, is therefore not included in the CIP2. Finally, because the CIP2 is about nutrition-sensitive food systems, the focus is on projects that are nutrition-sensitive or nutrition-supportive, rather than nutrition-specific which is the remit of the NPAN2. This cost exercise therefore provides an estimate of:  the ongoing investments reclassified according to the 13 programmes and 39 sub-programmes; 150 Second Country Investment Plan  the existing available resources already committed through the ADP, including those financed by the budget and by the DPs;  the financial gap to be filled. Two types of figures will be provided: totals and figures ‘prioritised’ according to their role in addressing FNS, as explained below. Identification of projects The Government's ADP was systematically scrutinised for ongoing projects relevant to the CIP2 programmes. The Planning Commission formulates the ADP in light of the objectives defined in the 7FYP with which the CIP2 is aligned. It is the budgetary tool used to allocate resources on an annual basis in support of investment i.e. excluding current expenditures. IMED documents then provide the financial information required for the CIP2 budgeting, namely: the total project budget, the residual budget for the CIP2 and the yearly expenditure. This information is provided disaggregated by source i.e. Government and DP in Table A5.5. The ADP book also lists pipeline projects which are required to calculate the CIP2 financing gap. In some cases, this information was not included in this document but provided by relevant members of the Government. The listing of this planned spending is provided disaggregated by source i.e. Government and DP in Table A5.6. The term project is used for ongoing projects but also for planned investments whether or not they represent actual projects. It may be for example that the Government plans to streamline a development activity and has allocated a certain amount but not yet developed specific projects to implement this activity. The exchange rate used for calculation is US$ 1 = 78.4 Taka44 Classification of projects Over two hundred ongoing projects and over 100 planned interventions were identified to be included in the CIP2. Each of these was scrutinised to decide which programme and sub-programme they should be classified under. In some cases, projects have several components, some of which fall under different sub-programmes, or some of which are not relevant to the CIP2. In such instances, when available, the budget allocated to each component was used to apportion the component to the relevant sub-programmes. In cases where the budget by component was not available, the proportion allocated under each sub-programme was calculated by weighting all identifiable components equally. Efforts have been made to obtain more detailed information from managers or other stakeholders in ambiguous cases, but responses were not always obtained. Further versions of the CIP2 will endeavour to refine this information. MAFAP The classification of CIP2 projects according to the programmes and sub-programmes identified based on priorities expressed by stakeholders was assisted by MAFAP (Monitoring and Analysing Food and Agricultural Policies). This programme is implemented by FAO and seeks to establish country-owned and sustainable systems to monitor, analyse, and reform food and agricultural policies to enable more effective, efficient and inclusive policy frameworks in developing and emerging economies. The methodology used by MAFAP can provide useful insights on the composition of public investments in the CIP2. MAFAP was initiated in 2009 and it is currently in its second phase (2014-2019) which focuses on building on the partnerships and evidence created to support governments to reform food and agricultural policies that are currently constraining agricultural development, especially for smallholders. Combining the CIP2 and MAFAP classification -based on 151Second Country Investment Plan Food Availability Food Access Food Utilisation Food Stability l Domestic production l Import capacity l Food stocks l Food aid l Poverty and income l Markets l Water, sanitation and health l Care and feeding practices l Climate and weather variability l Political factors l Economic factors economic characteristics of expenditure- allows for an additional layer of information on the composition of investments, which can be useful to policy makers to analyse how their investments link to the FNS performance. The MAFAP’s Public Expenditure (PE) analysis for FSN follows the definition that was agreed upon in the World Food Summit in 1996: ‘Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life’ based on which four pillars of food security have been recognised: availability, access, utilisation and stability (Figure A.5.1.). Figure A5.1. The four dimensions of food security and nutrition and their determinants Source: FAO The MAFAP FSN PE methodology follows the following logic. First, it determines whether the expenditure is a FSN-specific or a FSN-supportive expenditure. Within FSN-specific expenditure a distinction is drawn depending on the recipient of the transfer. The expenditures can be aimed at individual agents e.g. producer, consumer, processors, suppliers, etc., or the sector as a whole e.g. research. In the case of FSN-supportive expenditures, these include, among other things, key infrastructure spending such as spending on roads and electricity. A key underlying characteristic of the MAFAP methodology is that the classification is based on the economic characteristics of the expenditure. In other words, it is categorised according to the purpose of the expenditure and how the expenditure is implemented. 45 With regards to the nutrition weights, the MAFAP programme does not attribute nutrition weights to categories. The evidence supporting the range of weights currently suggested in the literature are not yet deemed fully convincing from a methodological perspective and remain very contex t-specific. However, given the importance for the Government to prioritise investments based on the potential impacts on nutrition, these weights can be added by policy makers and nutrition experts, wishing to prioritise investments based on their perceived impact on nutrition. This was done in the context of the CIP2 (see section on Prioritisation below) and the MAFAP framework was adapted to allow this information to be added. Prioritisation Because the focus of the CIP2 is on nutrition-sensitive food systems, two budgets are provided. One with the full amount of the ongoing and pipeline expenditures and another where these expenditures have been prioritised based on the extent to which projects are bound to have a role in achieving positive nutritional outcomes, with weights associated to their potential impact. This type of analysis advocated by the SUN initiative allows the tracking of resources contributing to nutrition which can help countries prioritise, better plan their resource allocations and advocate for increasing funding. Based on the 2013 Lancet series on Maternal and Child Nutrition, the SUN proposes to classify projects into two groups: 45 For a full list of the categories covered by the MAFAP classification and a detailed explanation of the underlying methodology, see: FAO. 2016. Analysis of Public Expenditure towards Food Security and Nutrition. MAFAP Methodology working paper, FAO, Rome, Italy. 152 Second Country Investment Plan nutrition-specific: high-impact nutrition actions that aim to address immediate and some intermediate causes of malnutrition and undernutrition such as dietary intake and feeding practices. nutrition-sensitive: projects that incorporate nutrition objectives to address critical underlying determinants of undernutrition. Nutrition-sensitive approaches include agriculture; clean water and sanitation; food safety; food losses and waste; education and employment; healthcare; support for resilience and women's empowerment. For the purpose of the CIP2, three categories of projects are considered: ‘nutrition-sensitive +’: certain interventions categorised by the Lancet as nutrition-sensitive are likely to have a more direct impact on nutritional outcomes e.g. promotion of dietary guidelines linked with national NCD strategies and related nutrition services. They have the potential to be leveraged to serve as delivery platforms for nutrition-specific interventions. They are given a greater weight in the nutrition budget given their more direct impact; nutrition-sensitive; nutrition-supportive: this third category is created for projects that create an environment that is necessary for nutrition-sensitive or nutrition-specific projects to take place. This is not usually considered in nutrition budgets and yet bears a crucial role, albeit indirect, in the achievement of positive nutritional outcomes. Examples of this are the construction of infrastructure such as roads which will allow access to markets. It is also the case of strengthening of capacities to implement FNS-related policies. Such interventions are often sector-wide in nature which justifies not including their full cost under the CIP2. The category attributed to each project is indicated in the inventory of projects provided in Table A5.5 of Annex 5. Weights are attributed to each type of project, yielding a nutrition-sensitive CIP2 budget. These weights are as follows: 100% for ‘nutrition-sensitive+’ projects 75% for nutrition-sensitive projects 50% for nutrition-supportive projects. These numbers have been selected to be able to prioritise the CIP2 according to its nutrition orientation but have no justification other than wanting to create a hierarchy in the degree of relevance to nutrition. Such exercises have been carried out in other countries, but the brea dth of values chosen reflects the arbitrariness of such endeavour. To give but an example, drinking water supply project have been given a weight ranging from 10% to 100% in different country scenarios 46. Table A5.1. shows how different types of projects have been classified. 153Second Country Investment Plan Table A5.1. Weights for different types of projects CIP2 pillar Typology Category Weight I.

DPs contribute to 38.8% of the ongoing projects (Table A5.2). Twenty projects account for over 50% of the total CIP2 ongoing budget47. When weighing the budget according to its nutrition sensitivity, its total declines to US$ 5.6 billion, or by 43%, and the financing gap to US$ 2.4 billion, or by 34% (Table A5.3). The lower proportional decline for the pipeline projects compared to the ongoing projects indicates the planned projects have a greater nutrition focus or a less nutrition-supportive nature than the operationalised projects. Even after giving greater weight to nutrition-sensitive projects, the overall CIP2 budget is highly biased towards Pillar I ‘Diversified and sustainable agriculture, fisheries and livestock for healthy diets’ as shown in Figure A5.2. This propensity is even more evident when measured by the nutrition weighting. 47 Because the pipeline includes big interventions which have not necessarily been articulated into projects, as it stands, ten recorded interventions constitute almost 80% of the total pipeline budget. 154 Second Country Investment Plan V. Strengthened enabling environment and cross cutting programmes for achieving food and nutrition security While it reflects the country’s focus on developing agriculture to respond to the ever-increasing food requirements, it is also attributed to the fact that projects needed under this pillar are often costly. The development by BCIC of a fertiliser factory alone costs over a billion US$. Projects related to irrigation which fall under this pillar also require substantial amounts of funding. The small share of Pillar III ‘Improved dietary diversity, consumption and utilisation’ is explained by the fact that many projects falling under this category are nutrition-specific, therefore falling outside the remit of the CIP2. However, it is a clear indication that more efforts are needed in this area to support the NPAN2 through nutrition-sensitive projects, especially given that nutrition-sensitive programmes can serve as delivery platforms for nutrition-specific interventions, potentially increasing their scale, coverage, and effectiveness (see the Lancet series on Maternal and Child Nutrition, 2013). The fact that Pillar V ‘Strengthened enabling environment and cross-cutting programmes for achieving food and nutrition security’ only represents 3% of the public investment highlights the need for an urgent mobilisation of funds especially for programmes V.1. and V.2. on ‘Improved food safety, quality control and assurance, awareness on food safety and hygiene’ and ‘Reduced food losses and waste’ which are essential to attain FNS targets and require significant investments. The MAFAP classification shown in Figure A5.3. elucidates a functional decomposition of the nutrition-weighted CIP2 budget according to the economic characteristics of the expenditures. Information on the composition of the expenditure can then be a useful tool for policy makers to further analyse the composition of their investments in FNS. Specifically, in the case of the CIP2, roads, irrigation, water and flood management, payments to suppliers -mostly investments on fertiliser factories- account for over half of the nutrition-weighted CIP2 expenditure. This is further illustrated by Table A5.4., which shows that over half of the CIP2 budget is allocated to nutrition -supportive projects. While such endeavours are necessary to bring about the changes needed, it is clear that the Government will need to refocus government and DP spending priorities towards nutrition-sensitive projects if it wants to achieve the CIP2’s goals. Resource mobilisation The CIP2 is a strategic tool for integrating investments for nutrition-sensitive food systems into a comprehensive results framework which will help mobilise financial resources to respond to arising needs over the Plan timeline. To achieve its outcomes, the CIP needs to be implemented through coherent planning, budgeting and financing processes that harness all resources, while building on existing synergies and avoiding duplications. Efforts are needed to rationali se the mobilisation of financial resources by ensuring: Regular consultations on the mobilisation and use of financial resources with FPMU, the Ministry of Finance, the Planning Commission, and all line ministries and DPs involved in the CIP2; Quality monitoring of disbursed, available and pledged financial resources followed by an effective dissemination of the results; and Regular fora to promote private investment in FNS involving the private sector, farmer organisations, CSOs, line ministries and the Chamber of Commerce. Keeping track of the spending progress is particularly important in view of the limited execution performance observed in the monitoring of the first CIP. To this effect, investment absorption capacity must be enhanced. This requires capacity development support of stakeholders, and especially government agencies involved, as is proposed under Programme V.4. Finally, the GoB and the DPs should focus their efforts on financing the resource gap and prioriti sing nutrition-sensitive activities. They should also invest in projects that will help leverage investments and resources from the private sector, farmer organisations and CSOs. Dialogue will be required throughout to avoid duplications of efforts in a country with a high density of donors and NGOs and good practices will be actively sought to be scaled up, especially those relating to contractual arrangements, e.g. contract farming and supply chains, and PPPs. 155Second Country Investment Plan T ab le A 5. 2.

The CIP2 implementation period was taken as a reference. For ongoing projects, what is indicated is the fund allocated for the duration of the CIP2. This means that the project may have started earlier than June 2016 and that part of the total budget has already been spent. It is the residual budget that is counted in the CIP2 i.e. the funds available for the life of the CIP2. The column ‘Portion of the project budget allocated under this sub-programme’ refers to the fact that, as explained earlier, one project can have components that belong under several CIP2 sub-programmes. It will therefore appear more than once in the inventory, but the total of this column for one particular project across the CIP2 will not exceed 100%. There may also be cases where this total figure is less than 100% for one particular project, because it has been considered that not all the components of this project are relevant to the CIP2. This also applies to pipeline projects. 165Second Country Investment Plan T ab le A 5. 5.

Specifics of the CIP2 monitoring and evaluation process Approach to CIP Monitoring Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) is used to gauge the progress of programmes and projects in achieving expected results. It is also a tool that can identify bottlenecks in implementation and unintended effects. Effective M&E provides opportunities to: Increase ownership of results and maintain motivation by engaging CIP; Demonstrate achievement of development result; Support evidence-based decision-making; and Highlight gaps for advocating resource mobilisation. In accordance to the principles set in the Fourth High-Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness in Busan in 2011, the CIP2 monitoring system builds on existing national M&E capacities. It also adopts a Results Based Management (RBM) approach. This broad management strategy aims to achieve demonstrable development results and improved performance. Good planning, followed by monitoring and evaluation can enhance the effectiveness of investment projects and plans by carefully allocating resources and assessing progress in order to identify initiatives that work and feeding this information back into the planning process (Figure 8). In the CIP2 monitoring system, CIP2 programmes are assessed against expected development results of the CIP2’s Results Framework. The yearly Monitoring Report describes and analyses these data. The feedback it provides to different stakeholders -GoB, DPs, CSOs, etc.- allows the contents of the CIP2 to be adjusted as needed. In addition to this framework and in response to requests for elements to gauge the impact of an investment programme, such as the CIPl or CIP2, an analysis of the cost-effectiveness of five selected nutrition-sensitive sub-programmes of the CIP2 or specific activities/projects is planned. A cost-benefit analysis (CBA) approach will be adopted to this effect. This will help understand the potential impacts of these particular sub-programmes on achieving the objectives of corresponding key investment programmes. This is a first step towards an understanding of the CIP2’s effect on the country’s FNS outcomes and will lead the way to further evaluations. Figure 8. CIP2 life cycle Key questions addressed by CIP2 M&E are: • Are the priority investment areas still relevant? • Are CIP2 programmes and sub-programmes contributing to NFP Goals and Outcomes? • Are inputs being mobilised as planned? • Do the delivered inputs continue to be relevant for the achievement of Programme Outputs? • What are the financing gaps? • What decisions need to be taken for improving CIP2 effectiveness? • What are the main challenges, risks and opportunities? 189Second Country Investment Plan In order to answer these questions, the CIP2 M&E actions focus on three key dimensions: 1. Progress towards expected Outcomes 2. Progress towards expected Outputs 3. CIP Investment Project Performance (financial execution) and donor commitments in contributing to the CIP2 programmes financing (Inputs). The monitoring exercise focuses on analysing CIP2 investment projects’ contribution to the achievement of expected Outputs and Outcomes, as measured through the proxy indicators provided in the CIP2 Results Framework. CIP2 monitoring starts from the input level of the results chain (Figure 9). Figure 9. CIP2 monitoring CIP2 Monitoring & Evaluation plan The CIP2 M&E plan is the key reference for conducting monitoring and evaluation activities systematically during the CIP2 life cycle (Table A6.1.). It defines what is to be monitored and evaluated; who is responsible for monitoring and evaluation activities; when monitoring and evaluation activities take place; and how monitoring and evaluation are carried out. Table A6.1. CIP2 M&E plan CIP2 result M&E action Focus Responsibilities Timing Expected outcomes and outputs CIP2 (and NFNSP Plan of Action to be formulated) annual monitoring report: CIP2 outcome and output monitoring • • Progress towards CIP2 expected outcomes measured as % of results framework targets Progress towards CIP2 expected programme outputs measured as % of variation of results framework baseline indicators • • The TTs prepare this section of the monitoring report with technical support from FPMU Once the new NFNSP and its Plan of Action are formulated, its monitoring and that of the CIP2 will be consolidated The CIP2 (and later NFNSP PoA) monitoring report is produced on a yearly basis during the CIP2 life cycle 190 Second Country Investment Plan CIP2 result M&E action Focus Responsibilities Timing Inputs CIP2 annual monitoring report: CIP2 investment projects’ budget execution • • Reports on CIP2 investment projects’ budget execution performance including DPs’ disbursement CIP2 new project activation • • • IMED provides financial execution information with details of DP spending by project included in the ADP The Planning Commission and line ministries provide information on new project approvals FPMU synthesises the information to be included in the annual monitoring report CIP2 annual monitoring report: CIP2 GoB allocations and DP commitments • • GoB CIP2 allocations Donor pledges and commitments • • • The Planning Commission provides information on GoB allocations in the ADP book ERD provides information on DP commitments FPMU prepares this section of the monitoring report CIP2 annual monitoring report: CIP2 GoB allocations and DP commitments • • Non-ADP programmes Programmes and projects activated and financed by DPs • • ERD facilitates this information to FPMU Relevant reports from the LCG AFSRD and Country Partnership Framework, as available, may be used to complement the information Expected outcomes, outputs and inputs CIP2 annual review meetings • Meetings conducted at different levels to analyse CIP M&E findings and lessons learned, to identify actions for improvement and long-term sustainability, and to find ways to stimulate the financing of the CIP2 • • Meetings are held at TT, TWG, FPWG, FPMC and NC levels DPs and non-governmental actors participate in these meetings Expected outcomes and outputs Mid-term CIP2 programme reviews • Independent assessments and ad hoc studies to determine the extent to which CIP2 programme outputs have been achieved and the relevance of impact of the strategies and initiatives implemented • • The NC manages these reviews. It is in charge of prioritising, defining the focus, methods of analysis, timing and the management arrangements for such assessments FPMU provides secretarial technical and operational support to the NC in managing the independent Mid Term Programme Reviews These reviews are conducted during the third year of the CIP2 implementation 191Second Country Investment Plan 192 Second Country Investment Plan Institutional settings for CIP2 monitoring At the level of overall Outcomes and Outputs, the institutional settings for CIP2 monitoring are integrated with those for monitoring SDGs relevant to FNS and the upcoming NFNSP in a unified framework which consist of TTs, TWGs, the expanded FPWG and the NC, under the authority of the FPMC and with support from FPMU. Food Planning and Monitoring Committee (FPMC) The Cabinet-level FPMC chaired by the Food Minister includes ministers and secretaries from key sectors: Ministers for Finance, Commerce, Agriculture, Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives, Disaster Management and Relief; secretaries of the Cabinet Division, Internal Resources Division, Finance Division, Statistics and Informatics Division, Food, Women and Children Affairs, Disaster Management and Relief, Health and Family Welfare, Agriculture, and Fisheries and Livestock. The FPMC delivers strategic guidance on FNS issues and establishes a high-level commitment to inter-sectoral collaboration. It provides leadership and oversight in the formulation of food policy strategic documents developed by the institutions it oversees. But it also relies on the technical support provided by these same instances which provide feedback based on their monitoring activities. National Committee (NC) The NC, also chaired by the Food Minister, comprises of the secretaries from the MoF (Finance and Economic Relations Divisions), MoHFW, MoA, MoFL, MoWR, MoDMR, MoFood and IMED; members from the Planning Commission (General Economics Division and Agriculture, Water Resources and Rural Institutions Division); and the Vice Chancellor of BAU, the Executive Chairman of BARC, the President of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry, the Mission Director of USAID, the FAO Representative in Bangladesh, the Director General of the Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies (BIDS), the Country Director of the World Bank and the Chief of Party of the IFPRI. The NC oversees the CIP implementation and monitoring processes. Food Policy Working Group (FPWG) The FPWG, chaired by the Food Secretary and consisting of representatives from the Planning Commission (General Economics Division, Socio-economic Infrastructure Division and Agriculture, Water Resources and Rural Institutions Division), Ministry of Finance (Finance Division and Economic Relations Division), and IMED, performs the task of coordination and collaboration at the technical and operational level through the five TTs (see Table A6.2) that carry out the monitoring. Thematic Teams The five TTs monitor the progress towards the objectives of the NFP PoA and the CIP2, assess the effectiveness of ongoing FNS policies and strategic actions against a common results framework and sectoral/cross sectoral targets where appropriate, contribute to the formulation of new programmes and/or expansion of existing ones, contribute to develop and maintain continuous dialogues between FNS stakeholders, and promote effective coordination among ministries/divisions/agencies/stakeholders in the implementation of inclusive investment actions for ensuring nutrition-sensitive food systems. 193Second Country Investment Plan Table A6.2.

The LCG AFSRD is the venue for dialogue between Government and its DPs. LCGs are designed to contribute towards effective and coordinated implementation of national policies, strategies, plans and programmes. Challenges in implementing CIP2 M&E A number of preconditions are required to the CIP2 M&E system to function effectively: • Adequate resources: Human and financial resources are key to a well-functioning M&E system. Officials from FPMU, TTs, TWG and FPWG assigned to working on the monitoring of the CIP2 must have the right technical and operational capacities and their roles in the monitoring must be endorsed at the highest level. This is especially the case for officials who are from ministries not traditionally associated with the food and nutrition policy of the country and whose role in the CIP2 process may seem as outside their job’s purview. Sub-programme V.4.2. endeavours to mobilise resources to ensure that such capacities exist. Financial resources also need to be secured to carry out CIP2 Mid Term Programme Reviews. • Stakeholders’ engagement: Stakeholder participation throughout the different phases of the CIP2 life cycle ensures ownership, learning and sustainability of results. Stakeholders are the best positioned to establish whether the planned results and investment operations remain relevant. Their partaking in the monitoring facilitates effective communication to increase coordination, engagement, mobilise additional resources to fill resource gaps. • Coordination: Monitoring the CIP2 is the collective responsibility of the numerous implementing entities which poses significant coordination challenges. To this effect, Sub-programme V.4.1. proposes to strengthen coordination mechanisms liaising with existing FNS frameworks, clusters and networks. Ensuring synergy and coordination among partners working towards common results supports: strategic focus and use of limited resources; enhanced synergy and coordination among key actors; accountability and informed decision making; avoiding duplication of efforts; and identification of gaps. Annual Review Meetings will promote partnerships and ensure linkages to national development goals. Opportunities in implementing CIP2 M&E • A guide to adjust the CIP2 implementation: The CIP monitoring sets the ground for adjustments in the CIP2 and provides evidence to justify any changes that the NC may decide to make. The evaluation process that takes place through the planned independent Mid Term Programme Reviews also provides critical feedback for improving programming, policies and strategies. While monitoring provides real-time information on the implementation of CIP2 programmes and investment projects, the Programme Reviews consist of critical in-depth assessments. • Developing nutrition-sensitive indicators: As the development of the CIP2’s results framework has shown, indicators that reflect the impact of different programmes on nutrition are scarce -even in fields such as agriculture which have a direct impact on a country’s nutrition- because nutrition objectives are rarely incorporated in the design of programmes. As the monitoring framework and indicators of the CIP2 are finalised, the opportunity should be seized to sensitise policy makers to the need to incorporate nutrition in their objectives and to develop indicators accordingly.
