Twelve continuing programmes across four areas of work — delivered by licensed member professionals, free of charge to the communities we serve, and coordinated with Bolivia's public health services.
Volunteer teams travel to health posts, schools and neighbourhood centres to screen for malnutrition and anaemia — weight-for-age, height-for-age, mid-upper-arm circumference and haemoglobin — with counselling and referral for every case detected.
Breastfeeding support, complementary feeding education from six months, growth monitoring to age five, and guidance on iron, zinc and vitamin A supplementation in coordination with local health services.
Screening for undernutrition and dehydration, adapted meal planning for low-cost local foods, and support for carers and community kitchens.
Menu analysis, food-safety training for kitchen staff, and classroom nutrition education aligned with municipal school feeding programmes.
Plain-language materials, radio segments and community talks on healthy eating, safe food handling, and reading food labels — produced for Spanish, Aymara and Quechua-speaking audiences.
Accredited short courses, clinical case sessions, an annual congress and supervised practice placements for graduating dietitians.
Diet counselling for diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia and obesity, plus training for primary-care staff on nutrition care pathways.
Local nutritional status studies, food-consumption surveys and technical publications that inform both our own programmes and public policy.
Rapid nutrition assessment and feeding support during floods, drought and other emergencies, coordinated with municipal and national authorities.
Registration and verification of qualified nutritionists and dietitians, a published code of conduct, and an independent Ethics Tribunal for complaints.
Technical submissions on food labelling, school feeding standards, malnutrition-reduction strategy and legal recognition of the nutrition profession.
Structured volunteer roles for members and supervised field experience for nutrition students in real community settings.
