Book excerpt: Abstract: Nutrition education solutions to worldwide nutrition problems are presented in proceedings of the Oxford Conference on Nutrition Education (Sept. 1977), jointly organized by UNESCO and the International Union of Nutrition Societies. Conferees represented a broad base of interests, indicating that nutrition education covers a very wide spectrum of educational activities. Papers discussed these aspects of the current nature and status of nutrition education in the world: how nutrition education should best be implemented; to which target populations should nutrition education be directed; what educational methods are most useful; and what information should be included. Section I examines the nutritional background of individuals, the family, the community, and developing and industrialized nations. Section II describes influences on nutrition education and training, and section III explores nutrition education in practice in various parts of the world.
