Convened by the *World Public Health Nutrition Association,* the Congress
will be held in partnership with the *University of Westminster, London, 10
-13 June 2024. *

*Theme:  Questioning the Solutions: has the Decade of Nutrition delivered? *

One year before the end of the Decade (2016-2025), the Congress will
question the current global solutions to addressing malnutrition in all its
forms. The Congress will highlight public interests and human rights as the
most effective framework for policy coherence and partnerships across the
many sectors needing to act to address hunger and malnutrition. It will
provide evidence for local food systems, agroecology, and sovereign food
knowledge as a solution to address food security, instead of strengthening
the prevailing industrial food system and power of multinational food
companies.

It will increase public pressure for nutrition targets to truly become
political priorities and that solutions include the voices of the
marginalised more than those of the powerful. We will be challenging the
increasing influence of corporate actors in policymaking in contrast to
lack of voice of populations most effected by increasing food insecurity
and related food system challenges.



*We invite abstract submissions related to research, policy or practice
under the following Congress sub-themes: *

1. Sustainable, resilient food systems supporting health.

2. Health systems delivering optimum nutrition.

3. Social protection to ensure food security for all.

4. Trade and investment for improved nutrition.

5. Safe and supportive environments for nutrition.

6. Strengthened governance and accountability for nutrition.

7. Building capacity for public health nutrition action.



*Abstracts that also address the following will be prioritized: *

a. Human rights, citizen engagement, and action for public interest.

b. Partnerships and alliances that shift power to those most affected.

c. Cross-sectoral actions free from conflict of interest.

d. Climate change and planetary boundaries.
