The Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement is an integrated effort to address all forms of malnutrition with multi-sector involvement. The collaboration between governments, civil society organizations, the business community, development partners and academics play an essential role in this movement. Since 2011, The Government of Indonesia (GoI) has become one of 61 countries who joined in the Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement. As a part of a commitment in the SUN Movement, GoI issued the Presidential Decree No. 42/2013 about The National Movement on Acceleration of Nutrition Improvement which focuses on 1.000 first days of life period. The Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Cultural Affairs (Kemenko PMK) led this movement together with the Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas) as the head of the technical team.
In 2020, Indonesia has 5 SUN networks consisting of 25 ministries/institutions, 40 companies, 34 civil society organizations, 22 universities and 15 professional organizations, 11 donors and UN agencies, and media. To read more about SUN Networks and their respective roles, please read here.
