Event Description

The COVID-19 pandemic is likely to have an indirect, yet severe and lasting, effect on maternal and child nutrition. Weakened and overwhelmed health systems can mean reduced access to and utilization of nutrition services while added stress on households can create additional challenges to practice recommended nutrition actions in the critical first 1,000 days—from the start of a woman’s pregnancy through her child’s second birthday. More than ever, social and behavior change (SBC) approaches remain essential to achieving good nutrition. This webinar will review important considerations and share experiences and resources to support country programs in adapting nutrition SBC programming in response to the challenges presented by COVID-19. Presenters will also discuss how to handle nutrition-related myths and misconceptions that have surfaced during the pandemic.

The webinar will be in English, with simultaneous interpretation into French.
