The 2024 IFNH Forum event will be held on 28 February (14:00-17:00).<\/p>\n
This year the theme will look to the future to explore what new developments in nutrition and its interaction with lifestyle can help reduce the massive burden of some key non-communicable diseases including dementia. This will include how effects of food cultures can impact the need to change dietary habits and how the needed dietary changes can be affected by social inequalities and climate change. The Forum will probe key aspects of these substantial challenges.<\/p>\n
