About Sun Business Network
The Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement was established in 2010 with a view to tackle the underlying causes of malnutrition, with a particular emphasis on the 1,000 days from conception to a child’s second birthday. The remit of SUN is to catalyze support for countries prepared to “scale up nutrition”. Ethiopia joined the SUN Movement as the 30th country in August 2012, and as of December 2015, 56 countries had joined the SUN Movement. The Federal Ministry of Health hosts the national SUN secretariat in Ethiopia as it spearheads the National Nutrition Program (NNP) in close collaboration with other line Ministries.
