Both I and II follow because Course of action I addresses the problem from a policy and standards perspective, while Course of action II addresses it from a consumer awareness standpoint, and both are logical and complementary steps to combat micronutrient malnutrition.

Educating consumers about the specific health consequences of micronutrient deficiencies like iron deficiency during pregnancy or Vitamin A deficiency motivates them to change their diets and seek out the right nutrients.
