Nutrition education and behaviour change

In Turkey Welthungerhilfe (WHH) organizes nutrition training for Syrian Refugees and Turkish citizens.  The focus is to raise awareness about nutritional aspects and change of bad nutritional practices on the side of the participants. This does not only concern aspects of under- or malnutrition, but also aspects such as obesity, nutritional demands for chronically ill people (diabetes) as well as mother and child care. Through the offer of nutrition seminars and cooking demonstrations WHH nutritionists help the participant to understand how to prepare healthy meal for themselves and their families.
