2. Session Learning Objectives Note: If Practice Activity Option 1 is chosen, assess Learning Objective 1a. If Practice Activity Option 2 is chosen, assess Learning Objective 1b. All participants will be assessed on Learning Objective 2. Edit this slide (Slide 2) to remove the LO you are not assessing. 1a. After a field visit, participants will analyze the observed event to identify whether ENAs were promoted during the event and possible opportunities for PCV involvement in similar events. 1b. Given two of the Essential Nutrition Actions (ENAs), participants will identify at least two possible promotion ideas for these ENAs for use in their communities. 2. Participants will analyze a case study and develop two food and nutrition security activities that address the underlying causes of malnutrition in their case study, and incorporate at least one ENA into every activity. We will revisit these after we finish reworking the session.
