In the 74th issue, we delve into the transformative power of participatory approaches with adolescent girls in Mozambique. Using Photovoice as a participatory research method, the authors are able to reveal how these young women identified barriers and opportunities related to their nutrition status. The article also sheds light on significant challenges, including limited social connections, poor nutrition knowledge, and harmful cultural practices that hinder their progress. Join us in exploring these vital insights and supporting initiatives that uplift adolescent girls in Mozambique! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/euZX4-87 #Nutrition #AdolescentHealth #ParticipatoryResearch #FieldExchange #Mozambique #Empowerment 

🎉 The latest edition of #FieldExchange #FEX74 is now out! And in it is our article about the dosage debate in the new WHO #wasting guidelines: 💬"Focusing on small changes in dosage may be distracting from much harder (and potentially more impactful) issues that need to be tackled. Reducing relapse, improving coverage, health system strengthening, and improving home diets are just some of these challenges." 💬 Also "The requirement in the 2023 guideline (“dosage must be determined based on weight”) could have huge implications for treatment coverage."

I'm thrilled to share my recent article published in the latest Field Exchange by the Emergency Nutrition Network (ENN). This is the first time that children with clefts are featured in an ENN publication—a significant step in ensuring they are not left behind. ENN shared their support for the article, saying, “The authors did a great job with this views article, drawing attention to an important group which may be overlooked. There are several key lessons to learn here, all of which are grounded with the two case studies that the authors share with us.” A big thank you to the ENN team for this opportunity to bring visibility to these important issues. Let’s keep working together to ensure no child is overlooked in the journey to better nutrition and health. #childrenwithclefts #nochildwithcleftsleftbehind #nutritionfirst #smiletrain https://lnkd.in/e6bsnXFe

Thrilled to share our latest collaborative work in Emergency Nutrition Network (ENN)'s #FieldExchange (Issue 74)! The article, authored by Marti J. Van Liere, PhD, Panam Parikh, Ph.D, Clémence Boulle (Martinaud), Greg S Garrett and Nadine Nasser, presents a compelling framework for increasing access to locally produced, nutritious complementary foods in low- and middle-income countries. It outlines six key action areas driving meaningful change through a whole-of-systems approach, and provides valuable insights for stakeholders looking to scale up solutions and improve complementary feeding practices. As we work toward better nutrition for all, these actionable recommendations can help us create sustainable systems that prioritize local resources and empower communities. 📖 Read the full article to explore how we can collectively improve complementary feeding practices and support healthier futures for children everywhere: https://lnkd.in/gHwJgju3 #Nutrition #ComplementaryFeeding #PublicHealth #FoodSystems #LocalFoods #HealthEquity #SustainableDevelopment

Issue 74 of Field Exchange is officially launched! Within this issue, you will find several authors championing participatory approaches to improve #research uptake and design-context specific interventions. We were prompted to reflect on the practical #implementation of the WHO 2023 #guideline on the prevention and management of wasting one year on from publication. We also revisit the topic of #disability and #nutrition. Although there was not a specific focus to this issue, these common themes emerged which we hope you will enjoy delving into.
