The document discusses nutritional challenges in Bangladesh and proposes fish-based products to address these challenges. It finds that many women and children in Bangladesh are undernourished and do not meet dietary needs. It emphasizes targeting the critical first 1,000 days from pregnancy to age 2 when improved nutrition can have lifelong impacts. Three fish-based products are proposed: 1) a complementary food for infants and young children, 2) a fish chutney for pregnant and lactating women, and 3) fish powder to add to family foods. The products were formulated to be nutrient-dense and culturally acceptable. Testing showed the products provided significant portions of key nutrient needs and were well-liked.
Nutrition advice often feels like it’s coming in from all angles during pregnancy. Everyone from your doctor to your Great Aunt has an opinion on what you should, or shouldn’t, be eating. With all this advice coming from a variety of sources, it’s inevitable that there are some myths in the mix. This infographic takes aim at some of the most common myths about nutrition and food safety during pregnancy.

The human body cannot make protein from carbohydrate or fat. So, we must eat adequate protein everyday.
Protein intake of both quantity and quality, during the first 2 years of life has important effects on growth, neurodevelopment, and long-term health.
In early life, the diet of children and adolescents is characterized by a higher protein intake than recommended.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The period from the start of a woman’s pregnancy to the child’s 2nd birthday offers
a unique window of opportunity to shape healthier and more prosperous futures
10. Why focus on the first 1,000 days of life?
Pregnancy Breastfeeding Complementary feeding

Improve nutrition for mothers and young children during the critical 1,000 days
from pregnancy to the child’s second birthday, when better nutrition can have a
lifelong impact on a child’s future and help break the cycle of poverty.
11. Complementary feeding
in 6-23 months old breastfed children
1. Exclusive breastfeeding from 0-6 months
>1 in 3 children are NOT exclusively breastfed
2. Meal frequency (2/day at 6-8 months, 3/day at 9-23 months)
>1 in 3 are NOT fed the minimum number of meals per day
3. Dietary diversity
>3 in 4 are NOT fed with appropriate dietary diversity
4. Adequate diet (Meal freq. AND dietary diversity)
Only 21% have an adequate diet

12. Nutritional challenges in the first 1,000
days
• Predominantly plant based diet (>70% of energy from rice)
• Low in micronutrients
• High in antinutrients
• Limited food diversity (<6% of energy from animal-source foods)
• CFs rarely provide adequate energy and micronutrients
• Thin rice porrigde
• Suji – wheat porrigde
• Time
• Safe storage
13. • Inclusion of small amounts of animal-source foods in a
plant-based diet can substantially increase nutrient
adequacy. It is therefore recommended that infants and
young children and pregnant and lactating women are
fed animal-source foods every day
• Most commonly consumed animal-source food
• Small indigenous fish are particularly nutritious as they
are eaten whole, with head, bones and viscera, and
provide a rich source of animal protein, iron, zinc,
calcium and vitamin A
Why should fish consumption be
increased in the first 1,000 days?

BUT
• Amounts consumed by the poor are low
• Even if available in the household, fish are often
introduced to the child only after 9 months of age
Why should fish consumption be
increased in the first 1,000 days?
15. Fish-based products developed by
WorldFish
1. Fish-based CF product for infants and young children
2. Fish chutney for pregnant and lactating women
3. Fish powder to be added to family foods
16. Fish-based complementary food product
• Made from local
ingredients
• High content of MN (iron,
zinc, vit A, calcium)
• High energy density
• Low content of anti-
nutrients
• Include animal-source
food
• Culturally acceptable
• Acceptable taste, texture

34. Future plans for fish-based products
• Food distribution programmes
• Community business plan
• Commercial sale including rural sales programmes
• Emergency response food rations
• School feeding programmes
• Moderate and severe acute malnutrition
• A business model to determine the feasibility of distribution of
the fish-based products through the various channels and
production scalability
