The document summarizes the history and goals of a series of capacity building workshops in public health nutrition (PHN) held in India since 2008. It notes that the workshops were started to strengthen the research methods and leadership skills of nutrition graduates, as areas like epidemiology, statistics and research methods were identified as weaknesses. Over the years, the workshops have focused on topics like nutrition epidemiology, research methods, policy, and the link between nutrition and chronic diseases. A table provides details on the theme, number of people trained, funding sources, and host organizations for each workshop between 2008-2019. The document aims to give context around why the PHN capacity building workshops were initiated and how they have evolved over time.

The document summarizes the conclusions and way forward from a conference on the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP). It finds that while implementation of CAADP has made progress, with 70% of countries signing compacts and 60% reaching later implementation stages, the impacts on agricultural growth, productivity, incomes and nutrition have been positive but could be deeper. It recommends continuing to track progress, strengthen policy support and mutual accountability between countries through tools like joint sector reviews and regional expertise, and prioritizing a "Nutrition Revolution" to put African countries on track to meet their Malabo commitments through country-led plans and regional learning. The next conference will focus on Climate Smart Agriculture.

CGIAR

The document summarizes key lessons from analyzing gender integration strategies and outcomes in projects funded by the Canadian International Food Security Research Fund (CIFSRF) between 2009-2018. It finds that projects taking targeted approaches to involve women tended to have narrow outcomes, while those addressing underlying gender barriers and women's empowerment had more impact. The relationship between strategies and outcomes is complex, as higher-level outcomes like empowerment involve mutually reinforcing changes over time. Ensuring gender is central to project design and using common metrics can strengthen integration and outcomes.

The document summarizes a study that adapted an in-person nutrition intervention to be delivered remotely via mobile phones during COVID-19. Key findings were: 1) Coverage and uptake of the mobile videos/audio was high for households with phones but access was difficult without phones. 2) Learning outcomes seemed better for long-form videos than short audio clips. 3) The mobile approach showed potential for engaging whole families but only among households with smartphones. The study concluded that both in-person and digital methods can complement each other to enhance learning if digital inequality is addressed to prevent exclusion of those without mobile access.

Steps in designing nutrition programme

David mbwiga

The document outlines the key steps to plan a nutrition program, which includes gathering and synthesizing quantitative and qualitative data on the nutrition situation. This data is then analyzed to determine the program's focus, goals and objectives. The program will prioritize improving infant and young child feeding practices like exclusive breastfeeding and adequate complementary feeding. A review of existing health services is also required to integrate the program and address gaps. The program goals are to ultimately reduce child mortality by improving children's nutritional status through improved feeding practices and access to preventative health services.

TransformNutritionWe

This document provides an overview of data collection and availability in West Africa. It discusses the types of nutrition data needed, common data collection methods in the region including household surveys, health management information systems, food price monitoring, and nutrition surveillance. There are gaps in both the scope of indicators collected and frequency of data collection. While most countries have recent estimates for key child nutrition and anemia indicators from national surveys, many are missing data on coverage of nutrition interventions. The document highlights both challenges and good examples across West Africa that could help improve nutrition data collection and monitoring.

Biodiversity for food and nutrition; country experiences

Bioversity International

This document discusses mainstreaming biodiversity for food and nutrition (BFN) based on experiences from the GEF Biodiversity for Food and Nutrition project. It outlines three key approaches to mainstreaming BFN at the national and local level: 1) policy and program design, such as integrating BFN into national biodiversity strategies and food security policies, 2) research on food composition and nutrition functional diversity, and 3) implementation through nutrition-sensitive agriculture and value chains as well as awareness activities. Case studies from Brazil and Kenya demonstrate mainstreaming BFN through revising national biodiversity plans and school food procurement programs. Effective mainstreaming requires collaboration across sectors, resources, and champions to integrate the link between biodiversity and nutrition outcomes

Research Gaps in Food and Nutrition Security Across Africa

African Regional Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System (ReSAKSS)

There are several research gaps in food and nutrition security across Africa according to the document. Key gaps include a substantial duplication of research effort, research not being adequately linked to local priorities, and research being driven more by external parties rather than the local policy and research community. Additionally, there is limited evidence on nutrition issues like women's and adolescent's nutrition, dietary behaviors, and how to effectively scale up proven nutrition-sensitive interventions. Addressing these gaps will require better coordination of research efforts, a focus on understanding differences at subnational levels, and leadership to manage cross-sectoral food and nutrition security research within countries.

Coordinating nutrition partners and programs in Ghana

TransformNutritionWe

The document discusses coordination of nutrition partners and programs in Ghana. It finds that malnutrition is addressed by many actors across different sectors, but coordination is challenging. Existing coordination mechanisms at the national level, like NANUPACC and the SUN CSPG, are functionally inactive. Coordination is also limited at regional and district levels. Key barriers to effective coordination include limited nutrition capacity and prioritization across agencies, incomplete decentralization, and reliance on donor funding. Improving coordination will require establishing a National Food and Nutrition Commission to lead engagement across sectors, strengthening multi-sectoral capacity, and increasing dedicated government funding for nutrition programs at all levels.

Editor's Notes

Quantitative Descriptive statistics of nutrition-specific and -sensitive indicators Decomposition analysis on drivers of undernutrition (stunting) reduction (based on Headey et al.’s work) Qualitative Desk reviews of nutrition-relevant policies and programs over time Stakeholder mapping: identifying national/sub-national level actors Stakeholder interviews (national/sub-national level; community level)
Note: Each bar in this graph includes publications that reports on one country only (eg. Burkina Faso), as well as publications that report on multiple countries (Burkina Faso and Nigeria and Ghana) We include all of these because we want to capture all evidence that incorporates that specific country (eg. Burkina Faso). Also, this graph includes publications reporting on one WHA indicator alone (Eg. EBF), as well as multi-indicator publications (eg. EBF and stunting). Therefore studies can be counted twice – Both in the EBF category and the stunting category. Key Messages: Stunting wasting and LBW represent the majority of studies Very few studies report on overweight
