Behavioural Nutrition in the Developed World (MEDC0099)

This Public Health Nutrition module focuses on the role of nutrition on global health by introducing an evidence-based approach to the relationship between diet, nutritional status and health in populations. It aims to enable you to develop critical understanding of the main principles of nutritional epidemiology and of the evidence underpinning public health nutrition policies, as well as competence in tailoring and evaluating public health nutrition interventions.
After taking this module you are expected to be able to appreciate key nutritional and health problems in developed and developing countries (such as iodine fortification strategies, iron supplementation challenges, childhood obesity national strategies etc.), to synthesize appropriate conclusions from the most current overview of research evidence and strategies and to be aware of the relevant key public health nutrition policies in developing and developed countries. You will be able to understand the methods used to design and evaluate public health nutrition interventions and describe the role of the key stakeholders in public health nutrition.

As well as lectures, you will have an opportunity to take part in a debate and learn how to write a newspaper article to report the findings from a behavioural nutrition research study.
