low grade inflammation has significant association with obesity. In relation to this association, there is currently a new tool to categorize the inflammatory potential of diet and predict the chronic low grade inflammation as a proxy-indicator, namely dietary inflammatory index. This study is expected to enhance our understanding on the inflammatory potential of dietary intake of obese women and chronic low grade inflammation. Hence, it is effective for nutrition counseling and dietary recommendation to improve diet, nutritional status and health. Furthermore, it will raise the awareness of policy makers and physicians, nutritionists and health care providers on those related components as major risk factors of non-communicable diseases.
Situational analyses of nutritional status and its contributing factors among underfive children and women of reproductive age in Ciampea Sub-District, Bogor District, West Java Province The Government of Indonesia has established targets for food and nutrition development, i.e. to reduce undernutrition (low-weight-for-age) to 15.5% and stunting (lowheight-for-age) to 32% amongst under five children in 2015. To support this policy framework, strong evidence about effective intervention packages is needed. The planned evaluation will gather high level evidence of impacts in an integrated package of nutrition interventions including strengthened health system, enhanced interpersonal counseling, community level behavior change campaign (BCC), and increased accessibility to fortified maternal, infant & young child nutrition (MIYCN) products, on child nutritional status & growth, in comparison with the routine services. The study covers 2 districts of Sidoarjo and Malang in East Java, Indonesia.
Chronic low grade inflammation measured by dietary inflammatory index and its association with obesity among school teachers in Yangon, Myanmar Obesity is emerging as a public health problem in the 21st century due to its life-long consequences and major risk factor of non-communicable disease. It is known that chronic
Nutritional status of under five children is still a public health problem in Indonesia. Based on Indonesia’s Basic Health Study (2013), stunting (low height-for-age) and underweight (low weight-for-age) prevalence increased during 2010-2013, although wasting (low weight-forheight) has decreased slowly. In addition, besides children, attention towards women of reproductive age is also increasing evident by nutrition intervention before pregnancy is in place. Low birth weight babies (<2500 gram) is a condition that might occur when women in reproductive age have low nutritional status before and during pregnancy. Low birth weight babies have bigger risk to become stunted and have increased risks of degenerative disease such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and heart disease. This study was conducted in Ciampea, Bogor,

West Java involving 527 children and 270 reproductive age women. The study assessed nutritional and health status of children and women based on measurement of body weight, body height, mid upper arm circumference, and hemoglobin status. Factors related nutritional status both in children and women were also investigated.
Validity of competency assessment among community nutrition workers on infant and young child feeding (IYCF) counseling towards improved IYCF practices in The Philippines IYCF is the foundation of nutrition in the first two years of life. The IYCF practices in the Philippines are generally still suboptimal. This study assessed the competency of Barangay (Village) Nutrition Scholars (BNS) on IYCF counseling using valid and reliable instruments and distinguishes strategic factors of various levels of competency as assessed by different assessors. The study consisted of two phases : the validation of instruments (phase 1) done in Laguna, and assessment of BNS competency on IYCF counseling (phase 2) done in Cavite by three different assessors. The result showed that socio-economic factors affect the competency of BNS on IYCF counseling including higher economic class municipality; higher educational attainment; age 40 and above; and single status. Strategic factors can be influenced through programmatic approach including focus and workload of BNS, provision of local or village incentives and good performance of BNS in his/her general function. In terms of training, recent training, better venue, individual counseling as well as regular monitoring improved the competency of BNS on counseling. This study also proved that instruments to measure competency of BNS on IYCF counseling using self-assessment, clientassessment and combined assessor assessment were as reliable and valid as the assessment instrument by supervisor.

South East Asian (SEA) region still faces great challenges in combating malnutrition, mainly due to inadequate nutrient intake, which especially happens amongst children and women of reproductive age. Affordable, available, and locally contextual food-based recommendations (FBR) that take into account cultural diversity, food availability and utilization of locally available nutrient-dense foods is expected to result in long-term improvements ofnutrient intakes than general recommendations. Recently WHO has made available a tool called “Optifood”, which uses linear programming (LP) approach to develop affordable, locally contextual FBRs. Given the expertise of SEAMEO RECFON in LP/Optifood, an intiative to establish partnership to translate guidelines into practices for optimal diet of SEA community was discussed during the 4th GBM in Medan to share the model to be implemented in Indonesia. During this meeting other SEAMEO countries have expressed their interest to collaborate with SEAMEO RECFON to implement the activities in their countries. As follow-up of this initiative, delegates from SEAMEO RECFON held workshops in relevant institutions in Myanmar and Laos PDR. During these workshops potential collaborating institutions were invited and agreement was made on roles of the involved institution and further followup activities, including capacity building, research and program implementation.
4. Workshop on Linear Programming with SEAMEO Countries
Two pilot project areas had been identified from the feasibility study, which involved a water community technologist consultant. The two areas selected are Bogor and Karawang Sub District which will be introduced to a relevant and replicable water treatment in the next phase.
