Development and Validation of Nutrition and Food Safety Educational Material for Fish Processors in Nigeria.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

fish can be an affordable and accessible animal-source food in many Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC).

Background

Traditional fish processing methods pose a risk of exposing fish to various contaminants that may reduce their nutritional benefit. In addition, a lack of literacy may increase women fish processors' vulnerability to malnutrition and foodborne diseases.

Objective

The overall aim of the project was to educate women and youth fish processors in Delta State, Nigeria about the benefit of fish in the human diet and to develop low literacy tools to help them better market their products. The objective of this study was to describe the development and validation of a low-literacy flipbook designed to teach women fish processors about nutrition
