Food systems are at the heart of determining what people eat. Micronutrients are at the heart of the potential of food systems to deliver optimal health. While the 2020 Micronutrient Forum conference will continue to cover the broad spectrum of micronutrients from the research, program and policy perspectives, it will, in addition, take a deep dive into how micronutrients might be optimized and protected within food systems.
The Forum aims to develop new alliances across the food system. It invites and encourages participation from colleagues throughout the food value chain, including agriculture, manufacturing, processing and distribution, retail, and culinary.
Discussions will take places across 4 stimulating tracks:
- Micronutrient biology and status assessment
- Efficacy and safety of micronutrient interventions
- Program effectiveness
- Designing an enabling environment for micronutrients
There will be a regional focus highlighting progress in addressing micronutrient malnutrition across Southeast Asia.
A pre-conference program of sponsored symposia will take place on 22 March 2020.
We look forward to providing you with timely updates about opportunities to participate, as a delegate, presenter, exhibitor or sponsor. To receive these updates, scroll down and click “Enroll.”
