Welcome to the Diet, Anthropometry and Physical Activity (DAPA) Measurement Toolkit.

The DAPA Measurement Toolkit is a free web-based resource to assist researchers, public health professionals, and others to identify and use methods for the assessment of diet, anthropometry, and physical activity.

The toolkit does not recommend or promote any specific method or instrument; it provides information for end-users to be better equipped at using and interpreting existing data or reaching an appropriate decision on choosing methods that are fit-for purpose when planning new studies.
