Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureMixed dishes consumed away from home or from communal plates: Standard recipe and portion approaches for MDD-W data collection
An annex to Minimum Dietary Diversity for Women – An updated guide for measurement: from collection to action
2024This document provides guidance on how to treat mixed dishes during the collection and construction of the Minimum Dietary Diversity for Women (MDD-W) indicator. Mixed dishes – such as soups, stews, curries and sandwiches – refer to recipes that contain two or more ingredients. Some ingredients may be used in large quantities, while others may be used in smaller quantities, for example, to add flavour. The focus of the current document is on mixed dishes that were consumed away from home or from communal plates (i.e. shared dishes or pots), and that were not prepared by the respondents themselves. The guidance presented here is most relevant to data collection efforts using the non-quantitative open recall method (Hanley-Cook et al., 2020). This document is intended as an annex to Minimum Dietary Diversity for Women – An updated guide for measurement: from collection to action – as published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in 2021 – which contains more general information on the MDD-W indicator.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.
