Community-based nutrition research isn’t just about collecting numbers or running tests in isolation—it’s about engaging directly with people, understanding their real dietary habits, and addressing the unique nutrition-related challenges faced by specific populations. Researchers who take this approach focus on making interventions that are not only evidence-based but also culturally relevant and realistic for the community in question.This work helps pinpoint where nutritional deficiencies or imbalances exist, assesses whether current programs are actually making a difference, and provides grounded insight to inform more effective public health strategies. In this session, we’ll look at practical methodologies for conducting field research, discuss best practices for involving participants (because buy-in is everything), and examine how to turn research findings into concrete, actionable programs.Attendees can expect to gain a deeper understanding of how to use community evidence to promote better nutrition, prevent chronic diseases, and improve health outcomes on a population level. The ultimate goal? To move beyond theory and help create meaningful, sustainable change in public health through research that truly connects with the people it aims to serve.
