ABSTRACT
This paper gives an account of the actual establishment of the pilot scheme, showing how the process of collecting, analysing and evaluating surveillance data can quickly define trends affecting the "quality of life" (including nutritional status) of groups of people in St. Kitts-Nevis. The simplest method of monitoring this is by a series of graphs and control charts - regularly updated - which have warning and action limits clearly marked in each case. The need for an effective policy-making machinery to monitor these findings, and to deal with any food and nutrition crisis, is an underlying theme to this paper. The importance of sharing analysed data with local field workers has also been stressed
