| Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services | (Expenses $ 349,714 including grants of $ 0)(Revenue $ 0) The Micronutrient Forum made significant progress in promoting dialogue and collective action to support micronutrient health in 2022 by making investments in the development of two platforms. - Through collaboration with stakeholders, the Forum engaged and managed a core group of 50 stakeholders along with an interim working group resulting in an overview of multi-sectoral actors in anaemia, a governance approach for the Alliance, four input papers for WHO's Comprehensive Framework on the Prevention and Management of Anaemia, and identified and engaged chairs for four Working Groups of the Aneamia Action Alliance (National Action, Programmatic Implementation, Research, and Investment). - Another platform in development is The Mighty Nutrients Coalition (MNC). Along with its network of partners, MNC successfully launched and disseminated the Lancet Global Health publication on new global MND estimates with an unprecedented worldwide audience of over 600 attendees from 90 countries. The impact of a common voice for the micronutrient technical community and collective action was demonstrated through its work with the Spina Bifida and Neurosurgeons' groups advocating for the WHA resolution on large scale food fortification for prevention of micronutrients and Spina Bifida. By developing its Advocacy and Communications capability, the Forum strengthened its ability and reach to raise awareness and communicate on micronutrient evidence and knowledge, and advocate for micronutrient-specific and sensitive investments and policies across nutrition, food security and broader development communities. In 2022, the Forum's website received approximately 7,500 new visitors per quarter, while the program website of ST4N and HMHB also reached approximately 1,300 and 1,500 new visitors per quarter respectively. These two programs have topic-specific resource pages on their respective Knowledge Hubs. Monthly newsletters were sent to over 9,000 subscribers and Twitter impression peaked in November 2022, with over 22,000 impressions. The Forum promoted micronutrient resilience themes through regular posts in Devex Dish newsletters. The Forum engaged with a leading strategic communications firm to support the strategic positioning of the Micronutrient Forum, which will include building a brand platform with the following components: a brand narrative, brand attributes, a corporate overview, a tag line, elevator pitch as well as some recommendations for the brand look and feel. |
