Affiliated Centers and Activities
Food and Nutrition Technical Assistance Project (FANTA)
The Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy was selected by the US Agency for International Development as part of a team, with the Academy for Educational Development and Cornell University, to assume major responsibility for the provision of technical assistance in developing countries where USAID operates. Under the FANTA contract, FPAN faculty and students have undertaken a variety of activities around the world, including developing guidelines for optimal use of food in health and nutrition clinics for mothers and children in Bolivia and Peru and testing the viability of qualitative questionnaire approaches to understanding local perceptions of hunger in several countries, with the intention of developing a quantitative measure that can be used to assess program and policy interventions in countries as diverse as Ethiopia, Haiti, Guatemala, and Indonesia.
Alan Shawn Feinstein International Center
This center was established on the conviction that emergency responses grounded in solid political, economic, social, and military analysis can better contribute to durable survival strategies for people coping with violent social change. The center is committed to building strong partnerships with academic, international, national, indigenous, private, governmental, and nongovernmental organizations throughout the world. Applied research and field operations are designed to: 1) strengthen knowledge and promote innovative analysis, 2) build institutional and local capacity, and 3) influence policy. The center has taken a leading role in working with the United States Agency for International Development/Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance, the United Nations, and nongovernmental agencies to train staff in key areas of humanitarian intervention. They have implemented projects including the emergency livestock vaccination, health and nutrition program in countries such as Sudan, Burundi, Kenya and Uganda. Other projects at the Center include the Displacement and Social Change and Public Nutrition programs.
Other Activities
Faculty are also involved as technical and policy advisers to many multilateral agencies, including the World Bank, UNICEF, the World Health Organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization, and the United Nations' World Food Programme.
The Food Policy and Applied Nutrition Program also has collaborative relationships with the Center on Agriculture, Food and Environment, the Center on Nutrition Communication, and the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging.
