Victora's research during this time helped understand how the first 1000 days influence the lifelong outcomes such as chronic illnesses and human capital.[18] Victora became a UNICEF consultant for Brazilian Country Office in 1987 and served in this position until 1993. Later, in 1995 he became a UNICEF Consultant for Evaluation and Research Office at UNICEF in New York for one year, where he led the development of the Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys, currently used in several countries.[12] In 1996, he became the head of the WHO Collaborating Centre for Nutrition in the area of Maternal and Child Nutrition at the Federal University of Pelotas.
