Register for the Global Centre for Healthy Food Environments launch
About
Health care systems should be at the forefront of providing healthy, ethical and sustainable food for their patients, staff and visitors in the context of pressing global challenges in our food systems.
In October 2022, we will host an event to launch both the Global Centre for Healthy Food Environments and our first research report which will define Healthy Food Environments for patients, staff and visitors in health care settings.
This definition will be used as the foundation for our future research and upcoming education programme. The launch event will feature guest speakers, recommendations and a Q&A.
The report is a collaboration between an international community of system leaders in public health, academia, nutrition, health policy, food policy, behavioural science, and environmental science.
