The Re-imagining the Package of Care for Children subgroup is hosting a discussion series to learn about and collect case studies on effective multi-sectoral approaches to child health programming. The session focused on evidence gathered during a literature review of multi-sector projects. The second session shared two programmatic case studies: 1. The McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Project in Honduras, and 2. Tiwalere II Project in Malawi. During the third session, subgroup members presented additional case studies focused on pastoralist communities: 1. Resilience in Pastoral Areas project in Ethiopia, and 2. The Ministry of Health Services and Sanitation in Turkana County, Kenya. The final session addressed what is needed to support implementation around multisectoral action moving forward. The discussion focused on governance as a guiding principle using lessons from BMJ series Governing multisectoral action for health in low- and middle-income countries.
