The First 2000 Days webinar series has been designed to build the capacity of health professionals and non-government organisation service providers who support families and young children in the first 2000 days of life.
This session is scheduled for 17 August, 10:00am–11:30am. It will focus on child nutrition and the importance of forming short and long-term diet patterns and eating behaviour during the first 2000 days. You will gain the knowledge and skills to implement feeding practises that determine child feeding behaviour and diet quality and assist problematic eaters in the care environment.
Registration is essential to attend the workshop, presented by Rachel Gerathy and Symone Lindsey. For more information, and to register, visit the Blue Sky Training and Events page.
