21 Discussion A tangible product can anchor behavior change, convergence and community mobilization efforts Demand creation needs to have a supply back up including availability of skilled manpower Linkages to all public departments are vital for overall impact Demand for nutrition services picks up quickly, but behavior change lags behind Project period too short to show impact on nutritional status June 12-13, 2012 Knowledge sharing forum, Kathmandu 21

23 Final Thoughts Sanitation and infection control measures should be integral to nutrition improvement programs Supplies of products which aid nutrition behaviors should be adequate to meet demand Capacity building and continued mentoring of frontline health and nutrition functionaries including ASHAs in nutrition and care of newborn Existing service delivery need to be realigned into community owned models addressing hunger and malnutrition especially in tribal areas June 12-13, 2012 Knowledge sharing forum, Kathmandu 23
