AID FOR NUTRITION
The G8 donors increased their overall funding for nutrition, in terms of volume and proportion of ODA, from 2010 to 2011 (Figure 3.4 on page 23). They increased their overall investment for both direct and indirect nutrition interventions in 2011 to US$573 million (Constant 2010 prices), although this still accounted for only 0.74% of total ODA from G8 donors. When all donors analysed in this update are considered for 2011 only, they collectively invested, on US$907.7
million in nutrition overall, US$281.3 million for direct nutrition interventions and US$626.3 million for indirect nutrition interventions (Figure 3.5 on page 23).
