Stuart Gillespie, CEO of Transform Nutrition reflects on the “spectrum of collaboration options available” on day 1 of the ‘Together for Nutrition 2014’ conference in Delhi which is jointly supported by Transform Nutrition and POSHAN.
“We have had a great first day, with a lot of energy and a richness and diversity in the experiences of “coming together for nutrition” in different states, and at different levels (from policy down to block-level convergence). Everyone who registered for this conference believes that undernutrition is a neglected but crucially important issue, and that it is multifaceted in causation, requiring multisectoral approaches in response.
The Together for Nutrition 2014: Working Across Sectors to Improve Nutrition in India conference will soon be upon us, October 29-30, in New Delhi . POSHAN and Transform Nutrition have been working hard to ensure the conference is informative and captivating. A call for abstracts led to 70 submissions and the best have been invited to present. Around 250-300 people are expected. The conference will serve as an important platform for learning and facilitating discussion around the challenging task of bringing diverse sectors together to improve maternal and child nutrition in India. See here for a sneak preview of our exciting agenda.
