Culinary Nutrition Symposium

Join us for a full-day symposium at the Bern University of Applied Sciences (BFH), bringing together leading voices in the growing field of culinary nutrition. Experts from Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland will share their latest work, offering insights into how cooking, food skills, and nutrition science can be integrated to promote health, well-being, and sustainability.

This international gathering will highlight both global developments and emerging Swiss initiatives in culinary nutrition focusing on research, education, public health, and practice. Whether you are a researcher, educator, policymaker, health professional, or student, this event offers a unique opportunity to engage with pioneering work, forge new connections, and explore future directions for culinary nutrition in Switzerland and beyond.

Stay tuned for program updates and speaker announcements. We look forward to welcoming you to Bern!
