Understand dietary guidance

Start by distinguishing nutrient reference values from advice about foods. Then compare how national guides describe their audiences and eating patterns. For a teaching exercise, choose two sources and record their populations, terms and publication dates.

Read and report research

Follow a paper from its question to its conclusion. Examine the diet measure and the comparison, then use a reporting guideline to identify information a reader needs. The methods guide includes a format for keeping a concise reading note.

Explore nutrition in society

Learn to read population indicators and examine the assumptions behind a sustainability comparison. Bring one population estimate or one proposed dietary change to a discussion, and identify what the available evidence can answer.

Using these resources

You can read the material without an account. Follow links to the original publisher for its documents, tools and access conditions. These reading paths are self-directed resources and do not award certificates or professional credits.

If a link does not work or you need help with a format, include the page address and a short description in your message.

Scientific exchange

For a proposed seminar or scientific meeting, describe the question, audience and format. A clear programme outline helps establish what participants would gain and how a discussion could be organised.
