The FNG process in Tajikistan ran from March to July 2018, as proposed and endorsed by the government at the National Nutrition Forum in July 2017. The analysis comprised a comprehensive literature review of available secondary sources in combination with linear programming (LP) using the Cost of the Diet (CotD) software. The aim was to understand barriers to adequate nutrient intake and to model potential interventions to improve access to nutrients, which is a prerequisite for improving nutrition, health and development.
