FEEDING THE PLANET, ENERGY FOR LIFE encompasses how culture, technology, innovation, tradition and creativity relate to food and diet. The themes of food and nutrition are presented at the EXPO Milano in light of new global scenarios and emerging issues, with a principle focus on the right to healthy, secure and sufficient food for all the world’s inhabitants.

PRECONFERENCE ‘CAN WE FEED EUROPE SUSTAINABLY AND EQUITABLY?’ Why not combining your visit of the EXPO Milano with the pre-conference  organised by the EUPHA Section on Food and Nutrition on Wednesday 14 October. Find out more here.

The EPH Conference is held at the same time as the 48th National Congress of the Italian Society of Hygiene, Preventive Medicine and Public Health (SItI), creating the largest public health event in Europe.  Both conferences are held in the ultramodern MiCo, only one Metro stop from the centre of Milan and the world exhibition EXPO Milano 2015.
