This interactive tool aims to support the process of choosing the most appropriate tool for a given context and design purpose. To start, we strongly recommend you read this guide to using context assessment for the design of agriculture and nutrition programs for detailed information about why and how to use this tool.

Conceptual Pathways between Agriculture and Nutrition
Click on an outlined box for a list of associated guidance questions that link to tools to help carry out context assessments. Some components were outside the scope of this activity and are therefore not clickable.
Any assessment requires multiple aspects of inquiry, so SPRING developed specific guidance questions. These questions should help support the conceptualization and planning of a context assessment exercise and analysis or help check the range of assumptions that should be considered in agriculture-nutrition project design.
