Choice experiments and Value-Chain modeling of attribute improvements to increase vegetable consumption in Kenya
Improvement of diets through increasing consumption of fruits and vegetables is of global importance. However, existing information about the factors affecting fruit and vegetable consumption often is insufficient for the development and implementation of effective policy and programmatic efforts. This research integrates choice experiments evaluating five potential attribute improvements (two quality levels, safety/hygiene, pre-cutting and lower…
Analysing the potential impacts of three interventions on fruit and vegetable consumption in urban Kenya using participatory systems modelling
Objective: This study uses participatory modelling with stakeholders to assess the potential impacts of three interventions intended to increase fruit and vegetable (F&V) consumption in urban Kenya. Design: A participatory process using Group Model Building (GMB) developed a conceptual model of the determinants of vegetable consumption. A subsequent quantitative System Dynamics model using data from primary and secondary sources simulated vegetab…

Basic human values drive food choice decision-making in different food environments of Kenya and Tanzania
Increased access to a variety of foods in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs) has led to greater autonomy in food choice decision-making. Autonomy allows individuals to make decisions through negotiation of considerations in ways that are consistent with basic values. The aim of this study was to identify and describe how basic human values drive food choice in two diverse populations with transitioning food environments living in the neighbo…
Situation analysis of procurement and production of multiple micronutrient supplements in 12 lower and upper middle‐income countries
Globally, there are few vitamin and mineral ingredient manufacturers. To support local, in-country or regional procurement and production of multiple micronutrient supplements (MMS), the following production scenarios are possible: (a) straight ingredients of vitamins and minerals forms imported or locally produced that are mixed, tableted, or encapsulated and packaged by a local manufacturer; (b) import or local production of a vitamin and miner…
Stakeholder perspectives on national policy for regulating the school food environment in Mexico
In Mexico, the school environment has been promoting sale of unhealthy foods. There is little empirical evidence on multi-stakeholder perspectives around national school food policy to regulate this. We studied stakeholders' perspectives on the proposed regulation for school sale of unhealthy foods. Comments about the regulation were available from an open consultation process held in June 2010 before the approval and implementation of the regula…
Maternal pre‐pregnancy body mass index is not associated with infant and young child feeding in low‐income M exican children 1–24 months old
Pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity is associated with shorter breastfeeding (BF) duration. Whether pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity is associated with other aspects of infant and young child feeding (IYCF) has not been investigated. We used data from 370 children born January 1999-September 2001 in a semi-urban community in Morelos, Mexico, where information on how they were fed was available at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months of age. We m…
