The National Food and Nutrition Commission (NFNC) is a statutory body set up by the Government under Act of Parliament No. 41 of 1967 which has since been repealed under the Act No. 3 of 2020. The Commission is a Government’s advisory body on all matters relating to food and nutrition. In its quest to improve the nutrition status of the Zambian population, the NFNC engages in a number of activities which include, but are not limited to, project implementation, research, training, collaboration, communication and advocacy.
One of the aims and objectives of the NFNC is to create community interest in food and nutrition. As such, the NFNC attaches high importance to communication and advocacy as it is the nerve center that disseminates research findings, influences policy in support of food and nutrition and triggers social and behavior change in individuals and families. In line with this, it produces various reports, social and behavior change materials and audio-visual materials.
