The Department of Gender and Nutrition at the University of Hohenheim and FIAN International convene a workshop on "Gender, Nutrition and the Human Right to Adequate Food" on 20 May 2011. The workshop will analyze why gender is not adequately addressed in right to adequate food planning and advocacy, and will inquire into how pro-nutrition approaches can and should bridge food production research and policy with the goal of healthy communities. In addition to experts and NGOs, the workshop will involve the Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, and Dr. Ismat Jahan, Member of the Committee on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (from Bangladesh).
