Overview
The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), together with CGIAR and a wide range of co-hosts, will bring together experts, policymakers, researchers, donors, and practitioners from across the region and around the globe for Delivering for Nutrition 2025.
This year’s hybrid conference will focus on solutions to address nutrition challenges at scale, helping South Asia move from commitment to coordinated delivery, and from evidence to impact.
Delivering for Nutrition 2025 will be the 5th regional and 8th overall implementation research conference in the series, following previous editions held in 2016, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024.
December 2–4, 2025
Kathmandu, Nepal & Online
Theme: Towards Impact at Scale
This conference will prioritize solutions to improve nutrition outcomes at scale. The focus will be on interventions, policies, and programs that are at different stages on the pathway to scaling impact:
- Operational at scale, demonstrating measurable outcomes/impacts and sustainability;
- Not scaled yet but have a roadmap showing potential for scaling;
- Generating data and insights on implementation and adaptations to inform scaling and impact in realworld settings;
- Leveraging policy to drive transformative change in diets and nutrition outcomes at scale in diverse
systems.
Emphasizing a multi-sectoral and systems approach, the conference will feature research and dialogue to enhance the reach and effectiveness of nutrition interventions.
Call for abstracts
Abstract submissions should focus on any of the eight SAARC countries in South Asia: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and/or Sri Lanka. Submissions can represent either a single-country study, a multi-country study, or a regional study on South Asia. Please note that we welcome multi-country studies; however, at least one of the eight eligible countries in South Asia must be included as a focus. For example, a relevant submission comparing Myanmar and Bangladesh would be accepted since Bangladesh is one of the eligible countries in South Asia.
Abstract deadline: Friday, August 8, 2025 at 23:59 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Topical areas
The six topical areas below recognize that diverse systems must be leveraged to deliver actions for nutrition impact at scale. Building on the Nutrition for Growth Summit, D4N2025 will focus both on major systems/sectors and on areas that need attention to strengthen nutrition impact at scale.
Topical areas include:
- Health systems
- Agrifood systems
- Social protection systems
- Education systems
- Market systems
- Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) systems
Across all systems, cross-cutting areas include:
- Measurement, monitoring and evaluation
- Enabling environments that support the delivery of nutrition actions at scale
- Equity considerations: intersectionality, gender and social inclusion
- Impacts of climate and other shocks.
Participants
The conference will convene academics, implementers, development partners, civil society, media, and policymakers from or working in the eight South Asian countries (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka) to share and discuss evidence and experiences on getting to impact at scale to improve nutrition in South Asia.
