Calls to Action to all ASEAN countries

1. Commitment• Make a Nutrition for Growth commitment at Rio 2016• Join SUN

2. Coverage • Increase coverage of nutrition programmes & measure

coverage3. Coherence

• Think multi-sectorally • Build alliances between nutrition & other communities

4. Cash • Find more funding for nutrition action

5. Community• Front line delivery

6. Count• Identify the data gaps that hinder action—and fill them

Thailand was once the world’s nutrition role model, but now...

• Off course on all 8 nutrition indicators• On undernutrition, progress has halted at fairly high

levels• While obesity is still only at 8.5% (2014) it is increasing

(up from 6.7% in 2010) and is a new problem• Now is the opportunity for Thailand to have another

big push on undernutrition-- before all resources become tied up in trying to prevent and treat overweight, obesity and diabetes

• Thailand has the opportunity to become the world’s role model--again

Thank You
