A quasi-experimental study to explore the association between nutritional education within the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme and related outcomes for children

Standard HAF was not associated with improved outcomes related to nutritional education. The HAF NEP group was associated with improved cooking competence only. The lack of significant findings in the intervention groups suggests further research into HAF nutritional education is required.

Abstract

Standard HAF was not associated with improved outcomes related to nutritional education. The HAF NEP group was associated with improved cooking competence only. The lack of significant findings in the intervention groups suggests further research into HAF nutritional education is required.
