Nutrition and Public Health in Georgia: Reviewing the current status and inspiring improvements: A joint event of the Georgian Nutrition Society, The Nutrition Society of the UK and Ireland and the Sabri clker Foundation, October 2023
\ua9 2024 Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.Georgia lies to the north east of T\ufcrkiye, having a western border on the Black Sea. With a population of some 3.73 million, Georgia has a tradition of gastronomic excellence dating back millennia. However, changing lifestyles and external influences have, as elsewhere, led to problems of suboptimal nutrition, and lifestyle related diseases and disorders prevail. There is considerable scope for improving the focus on public health and nutrition in Georgia. With this in mind, the Georgian Nutrition Society teamed up with The Nutrition Society of the United Kingdom and Ireland and the Sabri
clker Foundation, a public health charity based in Istanbul, T\ufcrkiye, to host a conference and workshops in Tbilisi, Georgia. The primary purpose was to review the current status of public health and nutrition in Georgia with reference to the situation elsewhere, to share examples of best practice and to identify opportunities for improvement. A particular highlight was the presentation of a programme of nutrition education for family physicians recently implemented in T\ufcrkiye.This summary of the proceedings is intended as a blueprint for action in Georgia and also to inspire others to consider how public health might be improved via a focus on balanced nutrition
