Strategies for better integrating nutrient supplementation and dietary diversity approaches for stunting reduction and improved nutrition outcomes: A Rwandan case study por Warner, James, Marivoet, Wim, Covic, Namukolo M., Umugwaneza, M.

“…Given that undernutrition calls for immediate action while food systems cannot be transformed overnight, abruptly implementing the diet diversity approach is neither effective nor politically feasible.Based on the article's findings, future policies in Rwanda should consider adopting a more comprehensive strategy that integrates a set of near‐term implementable health/nutrition interventions, for immediate impacts on stunting cases, with medium‐term investments to help establish a food system capable of increasing dietary diversity and sustainably improving nutritional outcomes of the population.…”

Designing for value: Structuring voluntary certification programs to increase stakeholder acceptance por Winters, P., Kuo, H.W., Niljinda C, Chen, B., Ongun M, Alves Pinto, H.N., Daryanto, S., Newton, Peter
