We believe an idea can nourish India

But if we work together, we can find a solution to address this.

The Poshan Innovation Platform, launched by the India Nutrition Collaborative is a collaborative space for scalable solutions in nutrition which will have a thriving Community of Innovators, providing the essential support (knowledge, money, and expertise) and ecosystem and a solid Implementation Science framework to build evidence to introduce new approaches to improve the nutritional status of mothers and children in India.
