An official statement said ISSNIP would supplement the much larger Integrated Child Development Scheme (ICDS) which aims to boost the nutritional levels of women and children.
The additional support through the project will help strengthen Women and Child Development (WCD) Ministry's efforts to strengthen and restructure ICDS programme, the government said.
The major components under the project are institutional and systems strengthening in ICDS, community mobilization and behaviour change communication, piloting multi-sectoral nutrition actions, project management, technical assistance, monitoring and evaluation. (more)
