Countries: Bangladesh, Kenya, Nigeria Organization: Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition Closing date: 31 Jan 2026 About GAIN The Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) is a Swiss-based foundation launched at the United Nations in 2002 to tackle the human suffering caused by malnutrition. Working with governments, businesses and civil society, we aim to transform food systems so that they deliver healthier diets for all people, especially the most vulnerable. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, GAIN has offices in countries with high levels of malnutrition: Bangladesh, Benin, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Pakistan, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda. To support work in those countries, we have representative offices in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States. At GAIN, we believe that everyone in the world should have access to nutritious, safe, and affordable food. Today, one in three people - drawn from nearly every country on the planet - are unable to consume enough nutritious food. We work to develop and deliver solutions to this daily challenge. GAIN in partnership with a consortium of eight organizations and together with local stakeholders, developed the Digital Fortification Quality Traceability (DFQT+) system, a cross-sector traceability that enables mills/refineries and authorities to generate, govern, share, and utilize safely accurate and traceable data on food fortification quality within factories and markets, including customs. The product was pilot tested in Bangladesh and Nigeria. The focus of the next phase of work will be on adoption in these two countries. DFQT+ aims to revolutionize global food fortification by providing an adaptable traceability solution that empowers all stakeholders to ensure the delivery of more nutritious food to every consumer. The country-driven digital solution fosters real-time data sharing, transparency, trust, efficiency, and accountability across the entire food system value chain, enabling healthier populations. Consistent and actionable data on quality of fortified foods is critical to ensuring programmes can reach their potential public health impact.
