Nutrition Society Irish Conference June 2025 hosted by TU Dublin - Call for Abstracts
Irish Section Conference - Promoting optimal nutrition for people and planet
An individual’s nutritional status impacts their health status and can reduce their risk of disease or aid with disease management. Primary prevention of disease through optimising diet and diet-related behaviours is a key strategy to improve population health. A more healthful dietary intake is also associated with better planetary health, and a focus on both is needed to ensure we meet the needs of the world’s growing population in a sustainable and equitable way.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were created in 2015 with the aim of "peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future." At this conference, we will consider the intersection between nutrition and sustainability and consider how human and planetary health can be optimised as we go forward.
This conference will comprise three distinct, but related symposia. The first symposium introduces the concept of optimal nutrition throughout the lifecycle. The second explores the intersection of health, nutrition, and sustainability by describing sustainable interventions aimed at improving nutritional status. Finally, the third symposium looks to the future and considers policy implications of sustainable nutrition, with a particular focus on vulnerable population subgroups.
