- Proposal Writing Workshop (Bogor Feb 15-16 & Surabaya July 28-29, 2010)
The purpose of the workshop was to increase knowledge of the participants on various aspects of proposal writing. The expected output is an increase number of good quality proposal submitted to the Foundation. Lecture materials included introduction to proposal writing, research design (quantitative and qualitative), sampling, and analysis. The workshop was facilitated by 6 external experts. During the consultation session, participants had the opportunities to discuss their proposals with the experts.
The workshops were attended by 42 participants. Most (39) participants came from educational institutions. Participants came from the following cities: Bogor, Bandung, Jakarta, Makassar, Semarang, Pontianak, Medan, Padang, Surabaya, Manado, Yogyakarta, Surakarta, and Kalimantan Selatan.
Topics of proposals brought by the participants varied from clinical nutrition to public health matters. Most participants planned to conduct research in the community (not laboratory). The participants found the workshop very useful. Proposal writing workshop is seldom conducted, even in universities.
- Manuscript Writing Workshop (Bogor Feb 17 & Surabaya July 30-31, 2010)
The purpose of the workshop was to increase knowledge of the participants on how to publish manuscripts in international journal. The expected output is an increase number of publication grant disbursed by the Foundation, thus Indonesian authors are more known internationally.

- Book ‘Sehat & Bugar Berkat Gizi Seimbang’ (Healthy & Fit Following Nutrition Guidelines)
The book was written to answer the need of a general guide to healthy eating and lifestyle, due to the increase trend of overnutrition and to re-socialize to the public the basic messages of Nutrition Guidelines. The book is co-written by Scientific Members of the Indonesian Danone Institute Foundation with reporters of Nakita, a tabloid providing information on child’s growth. The Nutrition Guidelines is depicted in a “Tumpeng Gizi Seimbang” * designed to accommodate the four main messages:
- Consume variety of food
- Keep clean
- Be active, exercise regularly, and
- Monitor body weight
In the Introduction, the problem of double burden nutrition in Indonesia, the importance of intervention at the period of ‘Window of Opportunity’, as well as the difference between the previous famous message ‘4 Sehat dan 5 Sempurna’ and ‘Balanced Diet’ was explained. In the next 7 chapters afterward, specific nutritional messages for various stages in life were elaborated. The book is divided into 7 age groupings, namely, pregnant & lactating women, children 0-2 years, 3-5 years, 6-9 years, adolescence 10-19 years, adult, and elderly. In each chapter, four common themes are discussed: specific condition and problems, nutritional needs, and principles of balanced diet covering the above 4 main messages. At the end of each chapter, suggested food pattern and combination of menu were included. At the annex the following information were attached: example of recipes, Ukuran Rumah Tangga (conversion to household measures), Bahan Makanan Penukar (Food Conversion List), Tabel Angka Kecukupan Gizi (Nutrients Recommendation Table), and Body Mass Index table for adult and elderly.
In all, we hope to achieve, among others, the following outcomes:
- Exclusive breastfeeding
- Intellectual child
- Healthy pregnancy
- Healthy and productive life
- Advancement in sport activities
- Prevent illness
- Ideal weight

Research Grant
Total proposals received were 32, of which 44% were doctorate. From total of 21 institutions, 17 were universities, 2 research centers, and 1 professional organization. Most proposals (91%) came from institutions in Java. Highest number of proposals came from UNIBRAW (5), IPB (4) & UGM (3). After first screening by the Scientific Members, 6 (19%) candidates were invited to attend a proposal writing workshop and told to revise the proposals. After revision, the proposals were sent to three external reviewers. Based on comments of the reviewers, all six candidates were invited to present their proposals orally, however, only 5 candidates passed the oral presentation. Candidates are now at the stage of revising their proposals again, which is due at the end of August. After re-review by external reviewers and scientific members, decision on winners is expected by mid September 2009.
