Future Fortified

About


Future Fortified is part of a worldwide effort to invigorate interest, awareness, and investment in Large-Scale Food Fortification (LSFF) and biofortification. These two interventions have enormous potential to contribute sustainably to reducing and preventing micronutrient deficiencies globally. 

For more on why food fortification is such an important and urgent topic to discuss, read our "What is Large Scale Food Fortification?" blog here.

This webinars in this series provide a basis for building consensus around the most important actions that should be pursued for staple food fortification to meet its potential for reducing malnutrition worldwide. 

The summit series has thus far included topics on rice fortification, digitization, fortifying the supply chain, the full-power of LSFF, the mightiness of nutrients to help in all areas of vulnerability and more. All summit events are freely available for use.

The Summit was launched with a high-level virtual event at the Micronutrient Forum 5th Global Conference CONNECTED on 6 November, 2020. Watch the recording here.

COVID-19 has revealed many fundamental challenges in our food systems, limiting access to fresh foods and the essential vitamins and minerals that we all need to survive, thrive and be strong amidst the constant threat of disease. This Summit Series is our opportunity to elevate the urgency of the unfinished agenda and harness the potential of food fortification for a sustainable, food secure and well-nourished future for all.
