The heart behind this initiative was found on the goal to inspire and motivate the country and its youths that solutions to their community's problems are found within themselves and not from the outside. UNICEF Nepal Country Office partnered and joined forces with multiple actors - government, private sector, academia, media house, and students- to realize knowledge sharing that can eventually lead to new knowledge generation for Nepal. The power of innovation has vast potentials to unlock new social and economic opportunities and lead to sustainable development.

    TERMS OF REFERENCE TERMS OF REFERENCE: A COMPANY TO ORGANIZE THREE CRICKET MATCHES TO PROMOTE NUTRITION 1. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION: Multi-sector Nutrition Plan (MSNP) of Nepal was approved by the Council of Ministers of the Government of Nepal on June 14, 2012 with the overall aim to improve maternal and child nutrition, which will result in the reduction of maternal, infant and young child (MIYC) under nutrition, by reducing the chronic energy deficiency (body mass index (BMI) less than 18.5) and reducing the childhood stunting by one third of the 2011 level by the end of 2017. It calls for a multisector collaborative effort, led by the National Planning Commission (NPC) and executed by the sector ministries (line agencies) that are responsible for nutrition specific and nutrition sensitive interventions. Execution of MSNP in districts was planned in a phase-wise manner: the first six districts were identified for immediate intervention involving the district line agencies in the fiscal year (FY) 2013/14. In the second phase, ten more districts were added for the further MSNP programme acceleration in FY 2015/16. Similarly, in the third phase, MSNP activities were rolled out to other 12 districts in FY 2016/17 with a total of 28 districts implemented MSNP out of the 75 districts in Nepal. Now the number of local bodies implementing the MSNP is 308. In line with goal and objectives of MSNP, UNICEF signed an agreement with the European Union to implement 'Partnership for Improved Nutrition in Nepal: Poshanka Lagi Hatemalo' to improve nutrition status of women and children in Nepal.
