Event Information

This third Global Nutrition Symposium will bring together ministers and other key policy-makers, researchers, public and private sector extensionists, producer organizations, as well as university administrators to discuss the global relevance of research-extension linkages for human nutrition and livestock. We will share promising examples of how partnerships between researchers and various types of extension and advisory service providers can increase the production and consumption of nutritious animal-source foods.

Together, we will develop actionable strategies to bridge gaps to improve nutrition, health, and economic outcomes—especially for women and children.  

The Symposium will highlight pathways for connecting research and extension services provided by the public and private sectors, as well as civil society, to foster more effective research delivery and diffusion through partnership with extension and advisory services in developing countries.
