This online form is for accessing a document that summarizes the scope of the forthcoming WHO Guideline on optimal intake of animal-source foods, and submitting comments if desired. More information on this work can be found in the scope document itself.
Anyone can view the scope document without submitting a Declaration of Interest (DOI) form, however, a completed and signed DOI form must accompany any comments. Comments not accompanied by a completed and signed DOI form will not be considered. You will be able to download a DOI form during the process of filling out the online form, and then can subsequently upload the DOI form after completing it.
If you submit comments, you agree to your name, organization/affiliation and comments in full being posted to the WHO website. You will be asked to provide consent on a subsequent page.
Filling out the online form
The online form is divided into several sections. After completing a section click on the 'Next' button to navigate to the next section. You can also go back to earlier questions in the online form by clicking on the 'Previous' button at the bottom of any page. Do not use the back or forward buttons on your internet browser as this may reset the entire online form. If you would like to save your progress at any point during the process, you may do so by clicking on the 'Resume later' button at the bottom left of the page and you will be prompted to provide a name, password and email address. If you provide an email address, your selected name and password will be emailed to you along with the link to return to the consultation. Please save the login information as we are not able to retrieve lost usernames and/or passwords. If you lose the login information, you can restart the process from the beginning which will include re-entering your identifying information and uploading the completed DOI form again if needed. To resume completion of a saved online form, return to the form via the link provided in the email you will receive when saving your progress. If prompted, fill in the required login information and click on the 'Load unfinished survey' button. To restart and/or clear all of the information you've entered into the online form, click on the 'Exit and clear survey' button.
