    • Dear FSN Forum,

      Attached is a presentation introducing the Alliance for Food & Health (AFH), a new platform to address food and health issues.  The purpose of AFH is to suggest actionable, innovative and effective polices and initiatives by facilitating collaboration between diverse stakeholders, including NGOs, governments, academia, the public health and medical communities and the food and agriculture industry.  The creation of thought leadership drawn from highly diverse participants is a unique value-add of AFH since its breadth may allow it to create new ideas that could influence policy and other commitments in unique ways.  If implemented, this joined-up thinking could significantly improve global health outcomes.

    • Although we don’t have a “successful policy” per se, we are working on an initiative that could significantly improve the quality of future policy and programs. 

      The proposed Alliance for Food & Health (AFH) is a new global multi-stakeholder initiative designed to find new and synergistic ways to address our global food/nutrition NCD challenges through thought leadership.  AFH is distinctive in its diversity, commitment to balance between interests, and focus on creating actionable ideas.  The goal is to create a better way forward on critical public health issues that will lead to more effective commitments and a positive impact on public health. 

      Interest in the group includes highly diverse actors in international organizations, industry, academia, governments, and the scientific community.
