Taking into consideration current nutrition situation of women and children in Albania, a new Joint programme on Nutrition, funded by the MDGF-Spanish Government, was developed jointly with WHO, FAO and the Albanian Government and will help place nutrition and food security higher on the government agenda and design interventions focusing directly to the most vulnerable population groups. An assessment of the wheat flour milling industry has been carried out. Previous data from the milling industry showed that flour consumption in Albania was 360 g/day/person; average flour consumption 460,000Mt/yr consisting of total flour milled 432,000Mt/yr and flour imports of 27,000 Mt/yr.
