WFP Nutrition's Learning Platform
nutx is WFP Nutrition’s learning platform, designed to share WFP’s experience, lessons learned and research on nutrition free of charge. Our learning resources include self-paced e-learning courses, interactive tests and exercises. We also share nutrition case studies, links to online resources and interesting readings.
The focus of the portal is on the nutrition topics where WFP is most engaged in. We hope this platform will be helpful to staff from national and international NGOs, Governments, university students and researchers, UN staff, as well as users from the private sector who have an interest in nutrition.

What people say about us?
No one organization can end malnutrition alone. Promoting a culture of learning and knowledge sharing is key to boost our efforts to achieve Zero Hunger: that is why WFP Nutrition created nutx
The portal is a very good initiative. Before, I was learning mainly by reading documents, but with this platform I now have access to videos and courses as well. I could also access content outside my expertise, and that really gave me an opportunity to learn.
I enjoyed working on the platform and the different courses were very useful for me as I am a PhD student in biochemistry with a specialization in nutrition and food safety. I also shared a lot of the knowledge I received and informed my classmates about these online courses. I'll continue to study on the platform.
