Tool Type: Project Report (annual, final)

This report describes PROFILES, a data-based approach to nutrition policy development and advocacy. It is a process designed to demonstrate the contribution that improved nutrition can make to human and economic development and to influence the way policy makers think about public health nutrition issues and the priority they give to investing in nutrition programs. At the heart of this approach is a set of computer models that translate nutrition data and scientific analyses into terms and arguments that make sense to non-experts.
