Integrated Delivery of Health and Nutrition Services in Northern Mali Program Evaluation – Executive Summary
In November 2023, Lutheran World Relief was awarded a 12-month emergency grant from the Gates Foundation to help respond to Mali's nutritional crisis. This evaluation of the emergency nutrition program demonstrates that positive nutrition outcomes are achievable in complex humanitarian settings when interventions are well designed, implemented with fidelity, and culturally appropriate. The emergency nutrition program in northern Mali achieved a 97.3% recovery rate that exceeded international Sphere standards and previously documented regional performance, while also strengthening healthcare systems and building community trust. The integrated approach combining therapeutic feeding, food assistance, and community engagement provides a scalable model for improving nutrition outcomes across sub-Saharan Africa, where recovery rates typically range from 53% to 82%.
