Malnutrition Awareness Week – September 16-20, 2024

Malnutrition Awareness Week takes place from September 16 to 20 this year. It is an annual, multi-organizational campaign created by ASPEN (American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition) in 2012 to raise awareness about malnutrition. The goal of the week is to educate healthcare professionals on the early detection, prevention, and treatment of malnutrition, and for consumers to discuss their nutrition status with healthcare professionals. It is supported by more than 110 organizations worldwide. While the general public is advised to pay more attention to their nutritional health, webinars are held for medical practitioners to equip them with the knowledge to easily diagnose and handle malnutrition cases.
