Book excerpt: This series of technical notes is produced on different topics of a national nutrition information system (NNIS) that are included in the first-ever global guidance on NNIS published in 2021. While the fundamental modules of the guidance describe the basics of a NNIS, each technical note deals with a specific topical area and presents details on those topics. The technical notes will help design and implement a NNIS and/or integrate a nutrition information system in the existing health management information system. A strong core team is an essential aspect of building and operating a useful NNIS. It can positively influence critical aspects of an NNIS, including its governance, management, design, operations, scale-up and sustainability. The right core team also have a positive effect on communications, productivity, accountability, and the use of data for decision-making. This technical note provides a set of useful tips on design, governance, operations, and key activities of a core team for an NNIS.
