Poshan Tracker Initiative Wins National Award for e-Governance 2024

New Delhi: The Ministry of Women and Child Development’s Poshan Tracker initiative has won the prestigious National Award for e-Governance 2024 (Gold) for Government Process Re-engineering and Digital Transformation. The award was presented yesterday (September 3, 2024) in Mumbai, honoring the remarkable progress made by Mission Poshan 2.0 in monitoring the growth and nutritional health of millions of children across India.

The Poshan Tracker, a cutting-edge ICT tool, has revolutionized real-time tracking of children’s nutritional growth through its Monthly Growth Monitoring initiative, which is also the theme for Rashtriya Poshan Maah 2024. The platform enables Anganwadi Workers to accurately monitor children aged 0-6 using WHO growth charts, facilitating early intervention and improved health outcomes.

The program’s success in tracking 8.9 crore children, with 8.57 crore measured in a single month, showcases its vast reach and impact. By leveraging digital tools to identify and address growth issues, Mission Poshan 2.0 has become a crucial force in transforming lives and ensuring a healthier future for India’s youngest citizens.
