Micronutrient Forum: 5th Global Conference
IFPRI is participating in the Micronutrient Forum's 5th Global Conference on "Building New Evidence and Alliances for Improving Nutrition."
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.
The 2020 Micronutrient Forum conference will continue to cover the broad spectrum of micronutrients from the research, program and policy perspectives. It will also 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 and brings together diverse participants throughout the food value chain, including the agriculture, manufacturing, processing and distribution, retail, and culinary sectors.
