| NOTES: |
This workshop included participants from 4 member countries: Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), Guam, Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) and the Solomon Islands. There were at least 3 participants per country, allowing a range of sectors to be represented including health, education, colleges, planning and agriculture. The workshop was organized by the Healthy Pacific Lifestyle Section of SPC, with funding support from AusAID, WHO and SPC. During the five day workshop, issues related to the successful development and implementation of national plans of action and policies on nutrition were explored. This included: the historical basis and needs for national plans of action on nutrition, essential components of plans and policies, using emerging issues such as NCDs to promote nutrition plans, developing successful partnerships and advocating for support and action. The workshop was participatory in nature, with the participants mainly working in country groups to explore issues. Plenary feedback sessions allowed time for further discussions of points raised and sharing of ideas amongst country representatives. Ultimately, the country participants each worked to review their existing plans and policies related to nutrition, and to set plans for its update or improvement. They alsodeveloped plans for activities needed to ensure that their plans would be fully implemented which, is often a particular difficulty. |
