Course Description
Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.
The goal of this course is to consider the three core public health functions of assessment, policy development and assurance, with specific application to public health nutrition. The course will explore examples of these functions in the US and in other industrialized countries, as well as in multiple low and middle-income country settings, and provide tools for analyzing differences, similarities, and fit with context. Focal topics include the multi-faceted causes of nutritional problems, including social and environmental determinants, and trends in prevalence such as the nutrition transition and impacts on undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, to overweight and obesity.
