Advancing Wheat Flour Fortification in Tajikistan

With the goal of advancing wheat flour fortification in Tajikistan, the World Food Programme (WFP) undertook a situational analysis of the status of wheat flour fortification in the country and proposes a way forward to ensure compliance with the mandatory wheat flour fortification law. As part of this assessment, a wide range of stakeholders were consulted, and site visits were conducted to wheat flour mills to understand the status of compliance and the availability of necessary equipment to commence wheat flour fortification. The assessment particularly focused on wheat flour fortification as it is the main staple food of the population in Tajikistan.
