Since 1975 when the United Nations University Council designated hunger as a major focus, the United Nations University’s Food and Nutrition Programme (UNU-FNP) has made major contributions to training, research, institution building, and policy formation particularly in developing countries.

 

The Programme is dedicated to improving lives through the generation of new knowledge and by providing access to current food and nutrition information within institutions. This knowledge is then applied at a grassroots level by in-country individual nutrition professionals and practitioners.  

 

The program has developed a global capacity development network of institutions to facilitate the implementation of current food and nutrition related research and programs. UNU-FNP Network Institutions.
