Book excerpt: This series of technical notes is produced on different topics of a national nutrition information system (NNIS) that are included in the first-ever global guidance on NNIS published in 2021. While the fundamental modules of the guidance describe the basics of a NNIS, each technical note deals with a specific topical area and presents details on those topics. The technical notes will help design and implement a NNIS and/or integrate a nutrition information system in the existing health management information system. A costing exercise is an important early step in planning a national nutrition information system. The exercise helps to specify the resources required for the successful development and implementation of an activity, i.e., the investment of resources and efforts required to build a functioning national nutrition information system. This technical note outlines key steps that countries can take to cost their nutrition information systems.
