THE POWER OF TRANSFORMATIVE MULTISECTORAL NUTRITION PROGRAMMING: A Guide to its Science, Ethics, and Practice - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Power of Transformative Multisectoral Nutrition Programming presents a comprehensive, integrative, and forward looking guide to addressing all forms of malnutrition through the combined lenses of science, ethics, and practice. Drawing on more than four decades of international experience across Africa and Asia, this volume provides a clear roadmap for governments, practitioners, development partners, communities committed to achieving optimal nutrition for all. Malnutrition—whether in the form of undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, or diet related non communicable diseases (DRNCDs)—remains a major barrier to human development. Its causes are multi layered, spanning biological, social, economic, political, cultural, technological, environmental determinants. The book argues that no single sector can reverse malnutrition on its own. Instead, sustainable progress demands multisectoral, human rights–based, and community centred approaches in which responsibility, resources, and accountability are shared. A central contribution of the book is the expanded Nutrition Conceptual Framework that categorizes determinants of malnutrition into immediate, underlying and basic causes.
