Speaker: Prof Sumantra Ray, MBBS, MPH, MD, NNEdPro Global Centre For Nutrition And Health
Globally we are experiencing a nutrition transition, where there is co-existence of both under and over nutrition in same populations. To tackle this global burden of malnutrition, nutrition educators are well equipped and competent in providing robust, evidence-based and regulated nutrition advice through motivational interviewing, counseling and behavior change. Due to lack of training and difficultly accessing reliable nutrition evidence, healthcare practitioners are unable to integrate nutrition into clinical practice.
Using a multi-modal education method, this session will equip nutrition educators with knowledge application tools extending their scope of practice and influencing wider healthcare workforce to integrate nutrition into practice.
