Without a doubt. While I am glad to be able to attend Micronutrient Forum in a couple of weeks, very conscious that attendance at a global nutrition conference at The Hague will be for the privileged among us. I will speak about decolonisation of nutrition research in my remarks there.


One of the many highlights of day 1 of the #MNF2023 had to be when Jan Low of International Potato Center and World Food Prize Foundation fame was specially sought out and served Orange-Flesh sweet potato rolls 🍠❤️


So delightful to catch up with current past (and future?) LSHTM Nutrition Group colleagues and alumni at the #MNF2023 ❤️🍎🌽

A great panel and a fantastic example of government commitment to reducing undernutrition by Vice Minister Pozo Zarate, who spoke about Nutrition Sensitive Social Protection initiatives MIDIS is implementing with WFP Perú (Programa Mundial de Alimentos)

I'm so thrilled to read this Yashodhara Rana! It's so important to document the application of evidence-generating nutrition modelling tools and understand factors that can enhance their uptake and use for advocacy and decision-making! Congratulations on a great paper!
