East African Food and Nutrition Security Policy

Abstract

The FNSP helps the region to implement the provisions of the EAC Treaty (1999) Chapter 18 Article 110 which states: “Harmonize food supply, nutrition and food security policies and strategies” relating to stimulating agricultural development, eliminating hunger, eradicating poverty, and ensuring food security. This firms up cross-sector linkages necessary for implementation of chapters 11, 12, 14, 18, 21, 22, 25, and 26, inter alia of the 1990 EAC Treaty.
