Abstract
|
|
|
Nutrition surveillance can sometimes be a powerfiil tool for raising awareness of nutrition problems at national and community levels and for promoting improved policies and programs to improve nutrition. Whereas many countries have been collected nutrition surveillance data for several years, the experience is often discouraging in terms of converting this data into in-formation deemed useful by decision-makers and in terms of demonstrating impacts on decision-making. This presentation will describe the results of multi-country review of this problem undertaken by UNICEF in 1992-1994, the revised concept of "Nutrition Information Strategics" that emerged from the review, and the efforts currently underway at community level in upstate New York to implement this revised concept.
