Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There has been a growing interest in and need for community-based nutrition interventions to target health disparities. In addition, evidence-based nutrition interventions still lack translation into community settings. Research efforts have lead to substantial gains, involving key stakeholders and community members in the design and implementation of interventions. However, research on the mechanisms and pathways of evidence-based interventions in relation to the broader health of the involved communities is needed. For nutrition interventions to be scalable and reproducible with long-lasting effects, targeted research must address their broader effects on the communities in which they are implemented.
The proposed Special Issue aims to provide a richer understanding of how nutrition interventions impact human health. The objective of “Evidence-based Nutrition Interventions and their influence on Community Health” is to publish select peer-reviewed manuscripts addressing broader aspects of nutrition interventions’ influence on communities. In particular, we welcome manuscripts addressing and uncovering the complex relationship between nutrition interventions’ effect on health disparities and related constructs across a variety of communities.
