We’ve dedicated a new section on our site—the IMPORTANT INITIATIVES tab—to showcase great nutrition science content from around the globe. We hope you’ll take a look at what we’re currently highlighting.

INTEGRATED CARE FOR OLDER PEOPLE (ICOPE) GUIDELINES – The World Health Organization (WHO) works worldwide to promote health and serve vulnerable populations. In 2017, they released the ICOPE Guidelines, which focus on intrinsic capacity and functional ability, rather than the absence of disease. We’ve consolidated these ICOPE resources so you can access them from a single location:

• A new, free continuing education program, “Applying ICOPE Guidelines” [1.0 CE/CPEU]

• The ICOPE Guidelines

• The ICOPE Guidelines Infographic

• An article, “ICOPE Evidence Profile: Malnutrition”
