Book Description
This paper illustrates the constraints that have limited action towards improving nutrition in the developing world. The understanding of how best to promote the needed changes in policies, programmes and institutional capacities has grown over the past decade, but remains limited. The international community has systemized its knowledge of what actions are likely to improve nutrition, but less effort has been given to systemizing its knowledge of how to intervene in the sociopolitical processes - from community to national and international levels.
