Nutrition and Development Series
ADB's Nutrition and Development Series, begun in 2001, covers the impact of malnutrition in Asia and the Pacific on poverty and depressed human and economic development. The Series stresses three themes

1. targeting nutrition improvements at poor women and children, with benefits to families, communities, and nations throughout the life cycle
2. reviewing and applying scientific evidence about nutrition impact for policies, programs, and developmental assistance that will raise the quality of human resources
3. creating opportunities for public, private, and civil sector partnerships that can raise the dietary quality of the poor, and enhance the learning and earning capability of poor children
