Tools and resources


Henry J Kaiser Family Foundation (HJKFF)

NutritionWorks

NutritionWorks is an international public nutrition resource group comprised of a diverse mix of highly experienced international public nutritionists. Originally formed in 1999, NutritionWorks is now a team of five partners with a strong network of supporting associates.


ELDIS

ELDIS' Nutrition Resource Guide provides access to relevant, diverse and credible research and resources on nutrition. It focuses on the causes and consequences of malnutrition; nutrition specific interventions; nutrition sensitive interventions; and the political economy of undernutrition. It aims to inform those seeking to bring critical perspectives from development to the heart of the debates on nutrition.

Training module - Programming for health outcomes

Welcome to Programming for Nutrition Outcomes, a free open-access educational resource, supported by the Department for International Development. This Master's-level module has been designed to explore the complicated problem of undernutrition, highlight its multi-sectoral causes and identify potential programmatic solutions.


LIST - The lives saved tool

This computer-based tool allows users to set up and run multiple scenarios to look at the estimated impact of different intervention packages and coverage levels for their countries, states or districts. These scenarios, developed with the LiST tool, provide a structured format for program managers or ministry of health personnel to combine the best scientific information about effectiveness of interventions for maternal, neonatal and child health with information about cause of death and current coverage of interventions to inform their planning and decision-making, to help prioritize investments and evaluate existing programs. The LiST tool is meant to be used as part of the planning process—not as a replacement for planning.

Field Exchange: The ENN Magazine 

Field Exchange is a tri-annual magazine containing field articles, research and news pieces for those working in emergency nutrition and food security.


Nutrition Exchange 

Nutrition Exchange (formerly Field Exchange Digest) is an annual digested read of ENN's flagship publication, Field Exchange. About one quarter the size of a typical Field Exchange issue, it offers a snapshot of key articles that have featured in the last year or so. It also includes updated information on references, guidelines, tools and training.
