Abstract	Volume 3 of a five-volume portfolio of studies reflecting different facets of the concept of education for rural development contains three studies on health and nutrition. The first study, "Health Education in Rural Development," by K. D. Ariyadasa (Sri Lanka), discusses the role of education in the transmission of health and integrated rural development and provides a global view of the problems and issues of health education in Asia, pointing to the need for effective use of resources, better insights into socio-cultural factors that promote or impede changes in health practices, motivation and harnessing the potential of community women and youth, and promotion of intersectoral cooperation and community participation. The case study of the nutrition education program at Satya Wacana University, by Willi Toisuta (Indonesia), describes an implementation model based on training community women, local leaders, and youth to act as change agents; providing incentives and competitive opportunities to motivate community participation; and developing action programs to give knowledge of nutritious food and skills to children at primary schools. The last study, "Health Education for Rural Development: Findings of Research," by Evelina A. Mejillano (Philippines), reviews 10 research studies, and lists some relevant findings, conclusions, and recommendations. (AH)
