GLOBAL ALLIANCE FOR IMPROVED NUTRITION JOB VACANCIES 2020

Background and Context

The Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) is a Swiss-based foundation launched at the United Nations in 2002 to tackle the human suffering caused by malnutrition. Working with both government and business, GAIN aims to transform food systems so that they deliver more nutritious food for all people, especially the most vulnerable. One of the GAIN programs is Post-harvest Loss Alliance for Nutrition (PLAN). PLAN is a global and in-country platform that would connect experts and supply chain actors in order to share knowledge, collaborate and coordinate activities to collectively reduce post-harvest loss (PHL) of nutritious foods making them more accessible for consumers.

The 2020 Global Nutrition Report stated that Indonesia is a country with a double burden in nutrition, both under and over-nutrition, the biggest country with wasting and number two with stunting globally. The 2018 Indonesia Basic Health Risk Assessment found that 30.8% of children under were stunting and 48.9% of pregnant mothers were anemic. An integrated action is needed to solve malnutrition issues, which includes increasing nutrition intake, especially protein and micronutrients which can be provided by fish. However, fish is a perishable food. the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimated that 35% of fish produced globally is lost and wasted. In developing countries such as South and Southeast Asia, about 90% of fish is lost from production to retailing and only about 10% is wasted at consumers’ level. Indonesia does not have reliable data on fish post-harvest loss rate however the range is about 20-29% annually. With 12.8 million tons of fish produced (MMAF data 2018), it is estimated that Indonesia losses 3.28-4.49 million tons of fish (equivalent to 840.000-1 million tons fish protein), worth Rp 63.3-82.8 trillion annually (JP2GI, 2020).

There are several determinants causing high fish post-harvest loss, including ineffective supply and cold chain system. In general, it takes about half to one day after harvesting/landing before fish reaches consumers. Fish usually lands around 5 PM, reaches auction place, and brought to market. Retail fish sellers or vegetable vendors usually go to market at 2 AM and start selling fish in the morning. Utilization of ice to preserve fish quality and nutrition is hardly done. If fish sellers/vegetable vendors cannot sell fish by midday, the price drops, and sometimes fish must be destroyed due to worsening quality.

The Covid19 pandemic has increased fish loss. In July 2020, the Association of Indonesian Fishery Product Processing and Marketing Entrepreneurs (AP5I) reported a drastic drop in demand for fish and processed fish products from the export market, while domestic demand for hotels, restaurants, and cafes (HoReCa) fell by 80%. This loss affected not only entrepreneurs but also traditional fishermen. Various media reported that many fishermen were forced to bury their catch due to lack of demand and limited technology and innovations to transport, store, and further process fish. However, this pandemic also marked a substantial change in marketing channels and consumers’ habits. The number of vendors selling fresh fish in digital marketplaces or via digital applications is increasing. New applications to sell fresh foods (including fish) are increasing at both the national and local levels. Utilization of digital devices/online marketing has the potential to shorten the fishery supply chain, accelerate the marketing process, and preserve better nutrition in fish.

One of GAIN’s mission is to increase access to nutritious foods while reducing post-harvest loss. GAIN would like to assess the business model of existing digital applications to increase fish purchasing and how selected applications could be improved and sustained to reduce post-harvest loss and increase fish purchasing.

Objective:

The objective of this contract is to map and assess how digital tools could shorten the fishery supply chain and increase fish purchasing by consumers.
