WEBINAR DESCRIPTION:
At its 27th Session in October 2020, the Committee on Agriculture (COAG) requested the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) “to produce a comprehensive, science and evidence-based global assessment of the contribution of livestock to food security, sustainable food systems, nutrition and healthy diets”. The report series is co-led by the Animal Production and Food and Nutrition Divisions of FAO, overseen by the Livestock Sub-Committee of COAG. During this presentation Dr. Neufeld will present an overview of the findings of the first in the series of 4 reports, this first document focusing on the Contribution of TASF to healthy diets and improved nutrition.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
- Learn about a new series of reports being undertaken by the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) related to risk and benefits of the production and consumption of terrestrial animal source foods (TASF)
- Learn the results of a systematic review of the evidence on consumption of various types of TASF on diverse health outcomes across life stages
- Discuss the evidence gaps and opportunities related to the risks and benefits of TASF consumption
Moderator: Rajavel Elango, PhD (University of British Columbia)
