【 摘 要 】

The World Bank report RepositioningNutrition as Central to Development (2006) explicitlyrecommended improving nutrition by not only working throughthe health sector, but also in non-health sectors such asagriculture and education. This report provides descriptiveand financial profiles of the Bank's recent portfolioin nutrition (from FY2000 to late FY2006) to note the extentto which the Bank has actually gone outside the healthsector to work on nutrition. In this period, 41 projectswere assigned a theme of "food and nutritionsecurity." Just over half of them (22 out of 41) hadnutrition-related components or activities. Of these 22projects, half fell within the health sector, and half fell outside.
