Track: Program effectiveness
National and population based micronutrient surveys in Nepal, India and Malawi included a comprehensive assessment of the etiology of anemia including biomarkers of iron status and other micronutrients, infection, inflammation, and blood disorders. Micronutrient status and other modifiable factors associated with anemia were identified in these analyses. Policy makers or Advisors from each country will participate in a panel to discuss how these data influenced the way they approached anemia reductions policies in their countries and refined public health prevention strategies.
