Technological breakthroughs often promise great improvements in scientific understanding, industrial advancements, and human and planetary wellbeing. However, the necessary validation (for safety and efficacy) and practical implementation of novel technologies are rarely straightforward. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of digital technologies expanded in healthcare and research: examples include the widespread adoption of telecommunications platforms for online working, digital apps and smart devices, novel therapeutics, and advances in supply chain management (1). COVID-19 has also highlighted the importance of good general health, underpinned by good nutritional status, in mitigating the risk of communicable disease (2). Both food and health systems have been put under huge additional strain during this time, both financially and in terms of systemic capacity. Consequently, there has been a sharp exacerbation in food insecurity and malnutrition risk worldwide. To discuss the role of digital technology in global nutrition, the NNEdPro Global Institute for Food, Nutrition and Health (NNEdPro) and the International Academy of Nutrition Educators (IANE), in collaboration with BMJ Nutrition, Prevention and Health (BMJ NPH) hosted the 8th annual International Summit on Nutrition and Health (the Summit). NNEdPro is an interdisciplinary think-tank, training academy and knowledge network established in 2008. Headquartered in Cambridge, UK, with 12 regional networks across six continents, NNEdPro is committed to ending all forms of malnutrition through research, education and advocacy (3). This editorial provides a narrative overview of the proceedings of the Summit.","PeriodicalId":84307,"journal":{"name":"Boletin editorial","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82800229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The specific six nutrition targets aim to reduce low birth weight, stunting, wasting and anaemia in women of reproductive age;stop the rise of overweight in children under five years of age;and increase exclusive breastfeeding.1 In the following year, global targets for nutrition-related non-communicable diseases (NCDs) were further established, including halting the rise of diabetes and obesity in all age groups.2 Unfortunately, the world is off course to meet these targets with the exception of exclusive breastfeeding.3 On top of this, the Covid-19 pandemic has put enormous pressures on already strained food and healthcare systems contributing to increases in food insecurity and malnutrition worldwide.4 Malnutrition imposes high economic and social costs on individuals, families, and countries5;and effectively implementing preventative and curative actions to curb alarmingly high rates of malnutrition is still urgently needed.","PeriodicalId":84307,"journal":{"name":"Boletin editorial","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75969965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The NNEdPro Global Centre is an award-winning interdisciplinary think-tank, training academy and knowledge network anchored in Cambridge, UK.6 The work of NNEdPro focuses on developing adaptable and scalable models for nutrition education and combining clinical and public health knowledge with leadership training to aid and evaluate implementation in education, health care and community settings globally. [...]the unaffordability of eating well is exacerbated by the pandemic and highlights the need to revitalize nutrition commitments and strengthen accountability for such action.2 There is also a need to consider the impact of trade and investment policies on food systems and maximise action to improve food security and nutrition, and invest responsibly into agriculture and food systems.22 In Action Area 5, Safe and supportive environments for nutrition at all ages, there remains scope to scale-up and further strengthen country level action by improving food offered in public institutions (e.g., school, prison, and hospital settings), considering regulatory approaches to shape food price and availability, and subsequently food choice, and supporting the use of the Voluntary Guidelines on Food Systems and Nutrition of the Committee of World Food Security,23 as discussed at the Summit. The food system accounts for more than one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions, and conversely, the present environmental crisis also places additional strain on the food and healthcare systems.18 Diet-related greenhouse gas emissions are estimated to exceed USD 1.7 trillion per year by 2030 based on current food consumption patterns.18 The resources required to sustain current food systems are vast;food production consumes over 50% of the planets habitable land surface and 70% of freshwater.19 Health care systems constitute a large sector which requires considerable amounts of energy and resources and produces substantial emissions and waste.20 For example, in 2012 alone, the European health system produced 24.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions, the equivalent of the total greenhouse gas emissions of the entire country of Croatia that same year.21 In the context of the Nutrition Decade, we need increased recognition of the role of agriculture and food systems to promote crop divers","PeriodicalId":84307,"journal":{"name":"Boletin editorial","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78965026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
