Full Title: Etablissement d'un double courant d'information paysan chercheur a propos d'enquetes sur l'elevage des petits ruminants dans le nord de la Haute-Volta. [Establishing a two-way flow of information between farmer and researcher in connection with surveys on the breeding of small ruminants in the northern part of Upper Volta.], INTERPAKS, Paris, France: Institut d'Elevage et de Medecine Veterinaire de Pays Tropicaux, 1981. (Paper prepared as working document no. 4 for the Workshop on Linkages Between Agricultural Research and Farmers in Developing Countries, May 13-14, 1981, Paris, France, sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.) 4 p., Describes the development of a methodology for establishing a two-way flow of information between small farmers and researchers, mainly to communicate to researchers the farmers' needs and requests. The approach uses investigators, many from the health services, who were given one week's prior training by the researchers. The researchers periodically checked the information collected by joining them on field trips. The data collected were processed by computer. The resulting system insured two-way flow of information linking local staff and researchers with regular transfer of information. Includes the complete questionnaire used in the project.

James F. Evans Collection, Ham, Mimeographed, 1994. 1 p. Presented at the Society for Nutrition Education, Portland, OR, July 16-20, 1994., Due to the increasing number of local health projects aimed at fat consumption reduction, there is a need for effective nutrition education interventions that can be applied in a community setting. Two interventions will be presented that were developed, pretested, implemented and evaluated in the framework of the local Dutch 'Healthy Bergeyk' Project. The first intervention was based on the 'Tupperware' concept: Inhabitants of the municipality of Bereyk could apply for a nutrition education session by a dietician in their own home and invite other people. The intervention was developed based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and Social Learning Theory. The second intervention was a calendar-like program that gave step-wise suggestions for reducing fat intake. Program development was based on the concepts of skills improvement and feedback. Written questionnaires and telephone interviews were also completed by the dieticians (n=4) to collect process data on the nutrition education sessions. The results showed that especially women with a low level of education participated in the interventions, program use was satisfactory, participant satisfaction was high and that more than 70% of the respondents indicated to have changed to a diet with less fat. It was concluded that the results are encouraging, but that the interventions should be implemented and evaluated in other community projects, because the results of this study were primarily based on post-intervention self-reports.
