Abstract
The Government of Morocco has successfully implemented a national fortification program to increase the amount of fortified wheat flour and oil available in the market, which was supported by a US$2.92 million grant from the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN). Morocco was selected out of several countries that had submitted proposals to GAIN, to undertake fortification efforts in line with the government's newly established program to fight micronutrient deficiencies launched in 2000.
