  • Capacity Building in public health nutrition.
    The Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2015
    Co-Authors: Catherine Geissler
    Abstract:

    The aim of the present paper is to review Capacity Building in public health nutrition (PHN), the need for which has been stressed for many years by a range of academics, national and international organisations. Although great strides have been made worldwide in the science of nutrition, there remain many problems of undernutrition and increasingly of obesity and related chronic diseases. The main emphasis in Capacity Building has been on the nutrition and health workforce, but the causes of these health problems are multifactorial and require collaboration across sectors in their solution. This means that PHN Capacity Building has to go beyond basic nutrition and beyond the immediate health workforce to policy makers in other sectors. The present paper provides examples of Capacity Building activities by various organisations, including universities, industry and international agencies. Examples of web-based courses are given including an introduction to the e-Nutrition Academy. The scope is international but with a special focus on Africa. In conclusion, there remains a great need for Capacity Building in PHN but the advent of the internet has revolutionised the possibilities.

  • a Capacity Building conceptual framework for public health nutrition practice
    Public Health Nutrition, 2009
    Co-Authors: Elizabeth Claire Baillie, Christel Bjarnholt, Marlies Gruber, Roger Hughes
    Abstract:

    Objectives: To describe a conceptual framework to assist in the application of Capacity-Building principles to public health nutrition practice. Design: A review of the literature and consideration of the determinants of effective public health nutrition practice has been used to inform the development of a conceptual framework for Capacity Building in the context of public health nutrition practice. Result: The limited literature supports a greater integration and application of Capacity-Building strategies and principles in public health nutrition practice, and that this application should be overt and strategic. A framework is proposed that identifies a number of determinants of Capacity for effective public health nutrition action. The framework represents the key foundations for Building Capacity including leadership, resourcing and intelligence. Five key strategic domains supported by these foundation elements, including partnerships, organisational development, project management quality, workforce development and community development, are proposed. This framework can be used to assist the systematic assessment, development and evaluation of Capacity-Building activity within public health nutrition practice. Conclusions: Capacity Building is a strategy within public health nutrition practice that needs to be central to public health nutrition intervention management. The present paper defines, contextualises and outlines a framework for integrating and making explicit the importance of Capacity Building within public health nutrition practice at many levels.

  • Capacity Building for transnationalisation of higher education
    European Business Review, 2020
    Co-Authors: S.m. Riad Shams, Rajibul Hasan
    Abstract:

    Transnationalism and transnational concept are extensively researched in many social science areas; however, transnational management and transnational marketing is relatively a less explored research domain. Also, knowledge management for transnational education (TNE) marketing is not well-researched. Capacity Building is an established research-stream, with a key focus on socio-economic and ecological development; however, prior research on Capacity Building from the context of TNE’s knowledge management and marketing is scarce. The purpose of this study is to analyse TNE marketing mix, to understand the influence of transnational stakeholders’ causal scope(s) on knowledge management in TNE to uphold their transnatioalisation processes through Capacity Building in TNEs’ marketing management.
