Learning to Effectively Deliver and Promote Adherence in Micronutrient Powder Programs Through Implementation Research

This special supplement draws attention to the role of Implementation Science and Research in supporting efforts to effectively scale-up and sustain Micronutrient Powder (MNP) programs in low- and middle-income countries. The eight papers, together with the broader discussion points articulated in the accompanying editorial, represent, on the one hand, significant progress in operationalizing global guidance pertaining to home fortification with MNPs; and on the other, highlights how we can advance the science of implementation around the delivery of such complex programs, and the methodological approaches by which this can be achieved.
