Optimal breastfeeding practices of mothers in paid employment
The study aimed to determine the breastfeeding practices of women in paid employment and the factors that affect compliance to optimal breastfeeding practices
Implementing a settings approach to health promotion
The document discusses the Carnegie Weight Management Programme, an intervention program in the UK that aims to help children between 2-17 years old who are overweight or obese through a 12-week community-based program involving diet, exercise and behavioral changes. An evaluation found the program resulted in reductions in weight, BMI, waist circumference and body fat in both children and parents. The document advocates for a multi-disciplinary, family-centered approach to tackling childhood obesity through community programs and stakeholder engagement.
nguyen ifpri sbcc program1
This document summarizes evidence from multiple evaluations of Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) programs in several countries. It finds that large impacts on infant and young child feeding practices are possible through interpersonal counseling delivered at scale via different platforms, including government health services and non-governmental organizations. Effectiveness depends on implementation context, exposure to interventions, and household factors like socioeconomic status. While India has supportive policies, coverage of counseling and nutrition services for pregnant and lactating women and children under-2 remains low. More research is needed to identify effective strategies for India despite many programmatic efforts.
Obesity- Tipping Back the Scales of the Nation 19th April, 2017
Laurie Eyles is the team lead of the NHS Lothian Weight Management Service in Scotland. Obesity rates are high in Scotland, with 65% of adults overweight and 29% obese. The risk of type 2 diabetes increases substantially with higher BMI. The aims of diabetes prevention strategies are to delay and reduce type 2 diabetes by targeting weight loss and glucose control in high-risk populations. Effective strategies include early intervention, lifestyle programs incorporating diet, physical activity and behavior changes leading to 5-10% weight loss. The Edinburgh experience demonstrates a tiered model of care including community and clinical weight management services and diabetes education programs.

Final core group presentation luz
This document summarizes a child survival program in Rwanda that integrated community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) with community-based integrated management of childhood illness (C-IMCI). The program aimed to reduce childhood mortality and morbidity through community case management of common illnesses like diarrhea, pneumonia, fever and malnutrition. Over 300,000 children under five were direct beneficiaries. Key interventions included oral rehydration, zinc, feeding practices, hygiene practices, prompt treatment, bed nets, outpatient therapeutic programs for severe acute malnutrition, and community kitchens. The integration of nutrition services helped treat over 8,000 acutely malnourished children and increased awareness, funding and support for malnutrition issues in Rwanda. Fact
Diet_for_Life_Report_final
The Diet for Life Work Group identified barriers to lifelong nutritional treatment for individuals with inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) detected through newborn screening. The group agreed on 7 components needed for a Michigan-specific approach to ensure access to treatment.
Current funding for medical formula through the Newborn Screening Program has reached $825,000 annually but costs are exceeding revenue, threatening sustainability. Over 30 metabolic disorders require medical nutrition therapy identified through screening over 50 conditions. Without treatment, affected individuals experience severe health problems, developmental delays and even death.
The work group recognized treatment involves various forms of medical food, low protein modified foods and supplements tailored individually and adjusting over time based on factors like age, pregnancy and illness.
Philip James
This document discusses strategies for addressing obesity at the national level. It describes trends showing rising obesity rates in many countries over recent decades. Some key points made include:
- Obesity rates have risen sharply in countries like the US, England, and Luxembourg since the 1970s.
- Modest weight gain, even within the "normal" BMI range, increases risks for chronic diseases.
- Environmental factors like increased food availability, variety, and portion sizes can promote overeating.
- Population-wide strategies are needed like marketing restrictions, pricing policies, and changing food environments in schools and hospitals.

Chilean experience: a good practice of food policy
Chile has high rates of obesity, overweight, sedentary behavior, and non-communicable diseases. To address these issues, Chile implemented several national food policies and plans. These include: 1) the Choose to Live Healthy national plan to promote healthy habits, 2) inclusion of obesity reduction targets in the National Health Strategy, 3) Acts establishing food composition limits, front-of-pack labeling, and marketing restrictions (Act 20.606), and 4) an Act taxing sugar-sweetened beverages (Act 20.780). The policies aim to improve food environments, leadership, monitoring, and multi-sector coordination to promote population nutrition and reduce health inequities.
The impact of social protection programs in Ethiopia on children’s nutritiona...
This document summarizes research on the impacts of social protection programs in Ethiopia on child nutrition. It finds that while the Productive Safety Nets Programme (PSNP) and social cash transfer pilot program in Tigray improved household food security, neither program improved child nutrition outcomes. Child malnutrition levels remained high, likely because the programs did not effectively integrate nutrition education and interventions. Maternal education had limited impact on child nutrition, and many children faced chronic undernutrition from a very young age. Improving nutrition knowledge and hygiene practices is needed for social protection to fully address child malnutrition in Ethiopia.
Nutrition programs in kenya
This document discusses nutrition programs and policies in Kenya. It outlines the high rates of stunting and malnutrition among Kenyan children. Factors contributing to malnutrition include low maternal education, poor infant and young child feeding practices, micronutrient deficiencies, gender inequality, and high population growth. The document also discusses Kenya's national nutrition policies and strategies, as well as programs led by USAID and others. It summarizes research on the impact of a nutrition education intervention in improving knowledge and reducing undernutrition. Empowering women with nutrition education through cooking classes has also shown benefits. Overall, the document stresses the importance of nutrition education and school feeding programs in addressing malnutrition in Kenya.

Nutrition element portfolio review usaid_ Roshelle Payes & Rebecca Egan_10.14.11
The document discusses USAID's nutrition approach, outlining its principles, components, target areas, and role of operating units. It provides context on the global burden of undernutrition and its causes. It then describes the recent shift in global and USAID nutrition strategies from vertical to integrated approaches, from under-fives targeting to the 1000-day window, from nutrient-specific to diet quality measures, from recuperative to preventive focus, and from health platforms to multi-sectoral delivery. It poses questions about reaching the 30% undernutrition reduction goal and delivering comprehensive nutrition interventions at scale through integrated frameworks.
Common vision outline of output maternal nutrition march 30 2019
The document discusses maternal nutrition in India, including low BMI and anemia prevalence rates from 2006-2016. It notes challenges like inadequate IFA supplementation and compliance, as well as determinants of malnutrition like education level and socioeconomic status. Recommendations include strengthening ICDS platforms, convergence of health and nutrition services, dietary diversification programs, and expanding evidence on cash transfer effectiveness and seasonal food availability.
WFP Angola Nutrition Work
This document summarizes Cathy Hsu's senior project and optional rotations with the World Food Programme in Angola from June to August 2006. It includes an overview of Angola's history and current situation, WFP's SMI maternal and child health program, and three projects Cathy completed: 1) conducting focus groups with women in SMI to understand the program, 2) analyzing nutrition survey data, and 3) assessing a displaced community's nutrition status. The focus groups provided preliminary positive results about prenatal care and barriers like transportation. Data analysis found high rates of stunting, underweight children, and vaccine coverage. The nutrition assessment found moderate malnutrition but no severe cases, allowing WFP to discontinue aid.
Areas covered in Ethiopia
The researcher conducted a study on iron deficiency anemia in women of reproductive age in Jimma, Ethiopia. They found a correlation between education level, consumption of iron-fortified foods, and rates of anemia. Additionally, the researcher developed and led various health education workshops covering topics such as HIV prevention, nutrition, hygiene, and disease prevention. They trained local community health workers to continue providing these workshops. The researcher also partnered with local leaders and the health center to conduct outreach and support preventative health measures.

This document discusses obesity rates and policy in Northern Ireland. It finds that 35% of adults are overweight and 24% are obese. Childhood obesity rates are also high, with over 20% of year 8/9 students overweight. The Public Health Agency of Northern Ireland is tasked with implementing the region's obesity prevention framework through 2021. This involves coordinating efforts across agencies, providing public education, and promoting opportunities for healthy eating and physical activity. Challenges include the need for long-term and lifespan approaches, understanding behavior change, innovation, and coordination across different organizations.

Chapter 14: Commitments and accountability: Peru’s unique nutrition journey [...International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)
PERUVIANS HAVE MUCH to celebrate in regards to the rapid progress the country has made in reducing malnutrition. In 2013, only 3.5 percent of children under five years of age in Peru were underweight. Even smaller proportions— 0.5 percent and 0.1 percent—were moderately or severely wasted. But the statistic that many nutritionists point to when lauding the country as a nutrition success is Peru’s rate of childhood stunting (Figure 14.1). In 2014, 14.6 percent of children under five years of age were stunted. While this rate is not as low as the country’s other nutrition indicators, it reflects a remarkable improvement. Less than a decade earlier, the prevalence was twice as high (29.5 percent).4 How was this rapid progress achieved—not only at a national level, but across all of Peru’s diverse regions, even poor rural ones including the Andean Highlands, and even amongst the poorest 20 percent of the population?CO-CREATE official opening presentation by professor Deanna Hoelscer
A consortium of 14 international research and advocacy organisations met in Oslo, Norway, 27-28 June 2018 to kick off the ground-breaking project CO-CREATE, to tackle overweight and obesity in young people. This is one of three presentations from the kick off meeting. The CO-CREATE project web site is http://www.co-create.eu
Obesity- Tipping Back the Scales of the Nation 19th April, 2017
The document discusses evidence-based policies to tackle obesity at the national and local levels. It notes that weight reduction programs have low completion rates and questions whether more can be done nationally with policies like the sugar tax. The presentation advocates for a whole systems approach at the municipal level, with policies around healthy food in public settings, town planning restricting fast food, and local authority declarations on healthy weight. It highlights campaigns in the UK to promote these types of obesity prevention efforts.

1) The document discusses a study conducted in Rajasthan, India that examined the dietary patterns and nutrient intake of pregnant and lactating women.
2) It found very high nutrient gaps, especially in fat, calcium, zinc, vitamins A and C. The women's diets did not significantly change during pregnancy due to food taboos and beliefs.
3) Based on the findings, the study developed evidence-based food-based recommendations using locally available foods to help address the nutrient gaps identified. However, affording a nutritionally adequate diet may still be challenging for many households.

Grant Williams: All You Need To Know About Swiss Gold Referendum.
This document summarizes an initiative by Swiss politician Luzi Stamm regarding gold reserves held by the Swiss National Bank (SNB). It discusses how Switzerland has historically accumulated gold reserves through trade surpluses. In the 1990s, constitutional amendments removed the Swiss franc's link to gold and allowed the SNB to sell reserves. The SNB then signed an agreement in 1999 to sell gold and has steadily reduced reserves from 2,600 tonnes in 2000 to under 1,000 tonnes currently. Stamm's initiative aims to increase transparency around SNB gold sales and policies.

This document summarizes an initiative by Swiss politician Luzi Stamm regarding gold reserves held by the Swiss National Bank (SNB). It discusses how Switzerland has historically accumulated gold reserves through trade surpluses. In the 1990s, constitutional amendments removed the Swiss franc's link to gold and allowed the SNB to sell reserves. The SNB then signed an agreement in 1999 to sell gold and has steadily reduced reserves from 2,600 tonnes in 2000 to under 1,000 tonnes currently. Stamm's initiative aims to increase transparency around SNB gold sales and policies.

Sample presentation
This document discusses the growing problem of obesity in Ireland. It provides statistics showing that 1 in 4 Irish children are overweight or obese, and projections that 89% of men and 85% of women will be overweight or obese by 2030. Obesity leads to health issues like reduced quality of life and increased risk of diseases. It costs the Irish economy over €1 billion annually in healthcare costs. While many people are aware of obesity, they do not prioritize nutrition or health. Nutrition education in schools, communities, workplaces and through public policies can help by teaching lifelong cooking skills and making healthy options easily available and reinforced.

Abstract
Obesity among American Hispanic females between the ages of twenty and sixty-four years old is the new health inequality in the United States. Food, physical activity, and obesity are one of these twelve leading health indices categorized as important national health issues by Healthy People 2020. Obesity is classified as anyone who surpasses substance mass indicator (BMI ) of thirty. According to females' wellness, three at four American females are overweight or obese. History of woman in Sports For most human history, healthy rivalry has been considered as an entirely masculine thing. Females weren't allowed to see most sporting events. Let only act in them. Not till late nineteenth century did females start participating in sporting events. Although females were allowed to participate in some sports, relatively few showed benefit, for a variety of cultural and mental reasons that are even poorly understood.
Although the fast gains seen in fat since the 1970s seem to have leveled off, Fat and obesity continue to take severe issues in the United States. Increasing physical activity and improving food are keys to fat prevention and control, in addition to policies that alter the situation to make wholesome eating and healthy physical activity more comfortable, safer, and more pleasing are expected to take most effective.
· Campaigns relying mainly on knowledge distribution and training to alter attitudes and behaviors associated with food and physical activity are the great importance of government action to ensure obesity.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
