The major teaching contribution of the Unit, at present, is a unique module on Nutrition Politics and Policy. It forms a part of the M.Sc. in Human Nutrition. The course provides students with an expanded concept of nutrition policy, then gives them the skills to analyse existing policies and design new ones. Launch Press Statement

An undergraduate module on the same theme is planned for the future.

This part of the website is currently under development. The 2009 schedule is available. Shortly, it will contain a full description of the module, key teaching materials, , the visiting "frontline practitioners" who contribute, and a list of policy-oriented dissertations written as a result of this teaching.

Jack Winkler also directs courses on nutrition policy at other universities. In 2008, they include University College London and MRC Human Nutrition Research at Cambridge University. Earlier courses have been run for the University of Surrey, the University of Portsmouth and University College Cork.

The 2009 nutrition policy module in the Department of Public Health at University College London finished Feb 25.

For the present, linked below are two key documents distributed to students, the Nutrition Policy Framework and Matrix. They describe the intellectual framework and structure for all these forms of teaching .
