The General Assembly of the United Nations declared 2016 the International Year of Pulses. Global activities throughout the International Year of Pulses will bring together members of the entire pulse crop value chain, as well as policy makers, NGOs, researchers, health professionals and members of several UN organizations with the overall aim of realizing the potential of these nutrient-dense crops to meet the global nutrition and agriculture challenges of our time.
This conference will be the inaugural event, focusing on the role of pulses in healthy and sustainable diets. Presentations will explore how pulses can make critical contributions to better nutrition and health and look at opportunities for enhancing these benefits broadly through food system innovations.
Danielle will be speaking on a panel title “The Role of Policy and Partnerships in Sustainable and Nutritious Diets.”
