Barbara left FAO in 2014.  In order to know which part of our work is the least relevant for countries, and thus could be de-emphasized, I designed a survey https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/9N5N6G5 which I hope many of you will complete ASAP. Please disseminate it widely also to colleagues who work on food composition.  Best wishesRuth    Ruth Charrondiere, PhDNutrition OfficerINFOODS coordinatorFAOViale delle Terme di Caracalla00153 RomaItalyTelephone: +39 06 570 56 134Fax: +39 06 570 54593
