Our purpose is to strengthen the evidence and know-how for effective nutrition interventions in countries prone to crisis and high levels of malnutrition.
The ENN enables nutrition networking and learning to build the evidence base for nutrition programming. Our focus is communities in crisis, typically humanitarian emergencies, and where undernutrition is a significant chronic problem.
We consider both nutrition-specific programming, such as management of acute malnutrition, and nutrition sensitive programming, that involve sectors such as social protection, agriculture, health, and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH).
•We capture and exchange experiences of practitioners through our Field Exchange and Nutrition Exchange publications and our online technical forum.
•We undertake research and reviews where evidence is weak.
•We broker technical discussion where agreement is lacking, such as MUAC and WHZ scores as indicators of SAM.
The Evidence Project is using implementation science—the strategic generation, translation, and use of evidence—to improve family planning policies, programs, and practices. Through implementation science, the Evidence Project will pinpoint how family planning and reproductive health services can operate more effectively, equitably, and at scale. It will highlight and address barriers to contraceptive access and use. Working with stakeholders, the project will foster the application of this evidence to health systems, with the goal of improving service delivery and access to vital information and contraceptives—critical elements for reducing unmet need and unintended pregnancies around the world.
The primary goal of The Global Health Network is to provide an open collaboration which will help to transform clinical research skills and knowledge in developing countries by providing free access to guidance, resources, training and career support and recognition – thereby promoting more and better research so as to help alleviate disease burdens in all settings.

We need help translating our platform so that the end learners using our solution can easily navigate to their learning content.
OUR MISSION.
The Starfish Canada celebrates and amplifies environmental, solutions-based stories across the nation, with a focus on youth-based initiatives.
WHAT WE DO.
• We are the source for responsible decision-making for Canadian youth. Our university student volunteers are trained on how to take technical science, policy and research and turn it into accessible articles for our readers to enjoy.
• Community outreach and education. We aim to create a community that is engaged, grows new relationships, and builds upon pre-existing bonds. We are in towns and cities across the nation through outreach events, festivals, workshops and fairs.
• Provide a voice to community groups. We celebrate local groups that recognizes and engage in positive action. We do much of this work through our Top 25 Environmentalists Under 25 program, where we amplify projects being done by youth across Canada to create a cleaner, healthier Canada.
The cornerstone of the OU’s mission is social justice. The University is dedicated to being a world leader in the development of high quality, distance education that can be delivered at scale, providing access to and opportunities for education to all. It is the largest University in Europe and delivers learning to more than 260,000 students each year, with over 50,000 studying worldwide.
For the last two decades the OU has had a special interest in Africa, partnering with governments, international agencies, training and education providers and local people to build capacity for the continent's future. Our international development programmes are based on working in partnership with local experts, creating content which is open access, and working with governments to develop sustainable, scalable solutions in areas such as health education and teacher education. Our programmes reach hundreds of thousands and in some cases millions of professionals, in particular those working in rural areas of sub-Saharan Africa, and in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan.
The Well Project is a non-profit organization whose mission is to change the course of the HIV/AIDS pandemic through a unique and comprehensive focus on women and girls.
We aim to accomplish this by focusing on three critical gaps related to women and HIV:
• Information access: develop and provide information that can increase women’s access to health care, engagement with providers, and treatment success. Our award-winning web portal provides easy-to-understand, accurate, current information on HIV/AIDS for women and girls and attracts more than 1 million unique visitors each year from every country in the world. The site features more than 150 articles covering medical, personal, and cultural topics related to HIV-positive and negative women and girls.
• Community support: offer support and advocacy development initiatives to address stigma, discrimination, and the need for enhanced leadership for women and girls
• Targeted research: undertake research efforts that address the gaps
We would like to give more visibility to our local partners by translating some of their key documents in English. At the moment we are looking for translators from Spanish and Portuguese to English. However, as we scale our activities we might need other languages. We might also require some of our document to be translated from English to French and or German to promote our activities in Switzerland.
