"Inappropriate screening of nutritional status and assessment can
create nutritional dilemmas. This workshop will provide an international
perspective on malnutrition screening and assessment, review
the validity of simplified nutrition screening tools and provide information
to enable you to distinguish between malnutrition screening
and assessment. You will also be equipped to evaluate the various
ongoing international malnutrition initiatives and how science, practice
and the political arena interface to address malnutrition."
