Community Nutrition and Health Interventions (CNHI) Lab
Our lab is driven by a vision of a world free from diet-related illness, where all
communities achieve food security and consume nutritious and safe food and beverages
every day. Our lab's mission is to improve nutrition outcomes by investigating and
addressing the underlying causes of under and over nutrition in various population
groups and to develop culturally sensitive and sustainable solutions to both domestic
and international nutrition challenges. Our modus operandi is to identify the nutritional
needs of a community group through situational analysis, obtaining community participation,
and implementing solutions to the identified problems through applied scientific research
projects linked to graduate studies, thus applied research based on community needs.
