nutrition-sensitive interventions

Nutrition-sensitive interventions are strategies designed to improve nutrition and health by addressing the underlying factors that affect dietary habits. These interventions often focus on sectors such as agriculture, education, health, and social protection, aiming to promote better food production, access to nutritious foods, and nutrition education. For example, improving farming practices can increase the availability of diverse foods, while educating communities about healthy eating can lead to better dietary choices. By integrating nutrition into various sectors, these interventions aim to enhance overall health and well-being, especially in vulnerable populations.
