Setting adolescent girls up for success in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh through improved nutrition
April 16, 2025
Globally, adolescents―particularly girls―are greatly affected by malnutrition, partly due to their specific biological needs. However, they are often missed by health and nutrition interventions, as until recently they have not been viewed as a priority for health and nutrition. With technical expertise and deep understanding of the subject, Nutrition International has developed a free, online Adolescent Nutrition and Anaemia course. This course offers a high-level overview of adolescent anaemia around the world today and provides practical information to apply to regional, national and global programs geared toward helping adolescents thrive and achieve their dreams.
The course
The Adolescent Nutrition and Anaemia course is made up of 15 modules covering a wide range of information from introductory to data to programming and engagement with and for adolescents.
A certificate of completion will be provided after completing all modules.
Narration transcripts available in additional languages
Learners around the world have been asking us to provide course content in additional languages to support their work in adolescent nutrition, and so we are translating the narration transcripts into eight new languages.
The additional language transcripts are currently available in Amharic, Bahasa, Bengali, French, Gujarati, Hindi, Swahili and Urdu.
