  • Diffusion of innovations: This theory explains how new ideas and practices spread through a population. It suggests that the adoption rate of a new idea or practice is influenced by its relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, amenability to testing, and observability.

  • Systems thinking is an approach to understanding and solving problems considering the interactions between the different parts of a system. It can be used to identify the key levers for change and develop more effective interventions.


Theoretical level of impact = community


Methods to Change Communities = Social action, forming coalitions

  1. Nutrition education for staff, children, and parents: This involves providing training and resources to staff, children, and parents on healthy eating and nutrition. This can help to increase their knowledge and skills related to nutrition and may lead to changes in their eating habits.

  2. Nutrition policy involves developing and implementing policies promoting healthy eating and nutrition in childcare centers. This can include policies on food purchasing, food preparation, and food service.

  • Structural Redesign (Org. Dev. Theory): The policy focuses on promoting sustainable nutrition and physical activity guidelines and practices rather than just implementing environmental changes.

  • Active Learning (Social Cognitive Theory): Three workshops, 2 h in length, covering five topic areas: Working with Families, Child Care Center Environment, Healthy
    Eating, Physical Activity, and Staff Wellness for all the centers' staff
