On October 1, 2019, the 8th International Nutrition Workshop (Behavioral Change for Nutrition Improvement) was held at the Global Environment Partnership Plaza, with 36 participants. Human behavior change is at the heart of almost all development aid. Improving various behaviors in daily life can prevent various health and nutrition problems, and the effectiveness of providing nutrition-related services and nutritious foods and materials depends greatly on the behavior of the beneficiaries. This workshop touched on the mechanisms of behavior change and introduced the behaviors necessary for nutrition improvement, methods for investigating them, and effective approaches to change them. The instructors used survey data, videos, and images recently conducted in Myanmar, Nigeria, Ghana, and Afghanistan to ensure that the content was practical and applicable.
