Fortification Assessment Coverage Toolkit (FACT)
Fortification Assessment Coverage Toolkit (FACT) is designed for carrying out coverage assessments of fortification programmes. The FACT consists of a manual and 10 practical tools and templates that provides standardised methods for the collection, analysis, and synthesis of data on quality, coverage, and consumption of fortified foods across countries while allowing for adaptations to meet specific country needs and contexts.
