Commercial determinants of health
The One Health approach recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health, yet its implementation has largely focused on biomedical issues such as zoonoses and antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This biomedical focus often overlooks the social and economic drivers that shape these challenges. In this article, we argue that applying a commercial determinants of health (CDoH) lens can enhance the analytical and policy releva…
A review of the business case for workforce nutrition initiatives
Undernutrition and malnutrition remain persistent challenges in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs), especially among workers in labour-intensive sectors. Workplace nutrition programmes (WNPs) have shown promising health benefits, but evidence on their business impact remains scarce—particularly in LMIC contexts. This review examines whether WNPs generate measurable business outcomes that could incentivise employer investment. Using a structu…
Firm’s compliance behaviour towards food fortification regulations
Impact of national food fortification programs is contingent on the extent to which there is compliance with national standards. However, this compliance is often sub-optimal and is not consistently measured. One of the challenges to more regular measurement is an over-reliance on quantitative assessments of micronutrient levels for compliance, which are costly. In resource constrained environments, this contributes to weaknesses in regulatory mo…
Understanding drivers of private-sector compliance to large-scale food fortification
Micronutrient deficiency is a pertinent global challenge that affects billions of people and has deleterious health effects. Large-scale food fortification (LSFF) is a cost- effective way to tackle micronutrient deficiency and improve health outcomes, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, the success of LSFF in LMICs is often hampered by limited compliance with fortification mandates by the private sector, who supply …
Food Systems After Covid-19
Measures to slow down the spread of Covid-19 have had profound effects on the food and nutrition security of poor and marginalised households and communities. This article provides an overview of the effects of Covid-19 on food systems across low- and middle-income countries using resilience and political economy lenses, before proposing approaches to build back resilient and equitable food systems. First, future interventions need to target stru…
The Effect of Value Chain Interventions for Staple Crops
This paper quantitatively assesses the effect of value chain development projects on market linkages of small-scale farmers of a staple crop and agricultural income. We focus on Nicaraguan bean producers participating in a value chain development project. Using a panel data set, we apply difference-in-differences and instrumental variables estimators to identify causal effects of programme participation. We first quantify the positive direct effe…
