Suaahara is a five year project aimed to improve the nutritional status of women and children in 20 districts of Nepal. The project focuses on improving health and nutrition behaviors at the household level through promotion of Essential Nutrition and Hygiene Actions (EN/HA), particularly Maternal, Infant and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN), and addressing other determinants of under-nutrition, such as availability of and access to food, hygiene, quality of health care, child spacing and sociocultural factors including gender and marginalization.

Suaahara partners include Save the Children (prime), Helen Keller International, Jhpiego, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health Center for Communication Programs (JHU.CCP), Nepali Technical Assistance Group (NTAG), Nutrition Promotion and Consultancy Service (NPCS) and Nepal Water for Health (NEWAH). The program works closely with Government of Nepal, Department of Health Services, Child Health Division (CHD) and National Health Education, Information and Communication Center (NHEICC).
