This brief tells the story of how advocacy for nurturing care resulted in the Nutrition Department of the Ministry of Health deciding to integrate early learning and responsive caregiving into the Nutrition Intervention Package (Pacote de Intervenções de Nutrição, PIN). PIN is one of 12 maternal and child health and nutrition packages included in Mozambique’s five-year reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and nutrition (RMNCAH-N) investment case. This case study underscores the importance of cultivating awareness and ownership among policymakers and working in partnership to leverage large-scale funding opportunities, such as that provided by the Global Financing Facility.
