As described in the FTF Results Framework, the high-level goal of the FTF initiative is to sustainably reduce poverty and hunger as measured through the prevalence of poverty and stunted/underweight children. The webinar provides an overview of the purpose, history, and methodology for setting aspirational targets for reducing underweight and stunting in each FTF focus country’s zone of influence as well as useful tools for setting reduction targets. The methodologies for setting goal-level targets were developed by the Bureau for Food Security, in consultation with the Bureaus for Economic Growth, Education and Environment (E3) and Global Health.
