Dear  all

ENN are conducting a ‘research prioritisation exercise’ for nutrition of school-aged children and adolescents using the CHNRI methodology. 

Drawing on recent evidence reviews, and input from an expert group, we compiled a list of 39 potential research questions (plus 8 focused on pregnant adolescent only) which we are inviting you to rank in terms of priority, in order to tackle all forms of malnutrition in children and adolescents 5-19 years in LMICs, in the next 10 years. 

What we are asking of you: Please set aside 45 minutes between now and the 8th September 2021 to familiarise yourself with the instructions and complete the survey.

If your internet gets disconnected during the survey, you will be able to start from where you left off. 

Please also help disseminate this survey to others who are interested in this topic, including researchers, programmers, and policy-makers working at global, regional, national and sub-national level. It will be particular important to have representation from country-level actors.

The results of the survey will be published in a peer review journal and all who participate in the survey and who wish to will be identified will be named in paper’s acknowledgements. 

It is hoped that the results will inform the direction of research and investments in this important area of nutrition. Your views are needed to ensure the next ten years of research helps us to make the advances we need to see.

We are grateful to USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA) for funding this work.
