HTP Module 23: Nutrition of Older People in Emergencies

The Harmonised Training Package: Resource Material for Training on Nutrition in
Emergencies (the HTP) is a comprehensive documentation of the latest technical
aspects of Nutrition in Emergencies (NiE). It is organised as a set of modules by
subject, containing technical information, training exercises and a resource list for use
in training course development.

Module 23 on Nutrition of Older People in Emergencies - a new module - has just been
completed. It was produced and published by HelpAge International and
NutritionWorks, funded by HelpAge International and in collaboration with the Global
Nutrition Cluster (GNC).

The HTP and associated resources are hosted on the GNC website,
http://www.unicef.org/nutritioncluster, the UN Standing Committee on Nutrition
(UNSCN) website http://www.unscn.org/en/gnc_htp/ and ENN website,
http://www.ennonline.net/htpversion2

The GNC website also hosts a series of powerpoints prepared to complement the HTP
modules as part of a GNC Capacity Strengthening Project, where the whole HTP
package was piloted in various countries. The project report provides lessons learned
from the experience in each country.
