The Regional Symposium on Sustainable Food Systems for Healthy Diets and Improved Nutrition in The Near East and North Africa, held in December 2017 in Oman, Muscat, was organized by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO), in collaboration with the World Food Programme (WFP).
The regional symposium provided follow-up to the Second International Conference on Nutrition (ICN2), its Rome Declaration, and its Framework for Action. It also contributes to the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the UN Decade of Action on Nutrition (2016–2025).
The symposium highlighted the major regional challenges for food systems and nutrition in the region and the roles of different stakeholders, including relevant governmental actors, UN agencies as well as other non-state actors in improving diets and nutrition in the region.
