		Background
	
	
According to the World Resources Institute, global temperatures have risen by 1.1 ºC, with call to limit target increase to within 1.5 ºC goals for 2050, while UNEP is predicting a bleak scenario with temperature rise of 2.4-2.6°C by the end of this century. The just published 2022  Lancet Countdown Report on  Health and Climate Change highlighted the predicament of increased risk of food insecurity, infectious disease transmissions and heat related ailments, putting additional strain on health systems and productivities. as experience by recent global pandemic outbreak, extreme heat waves, increase precipitations and other natural disasters. The potential impact of diet and nutrition in mitigating the effect of climate change such as heat proofing humans and heat stress management is largely underexplored, yet an important area to investigate where strategies have traditionally been focused on the environment, clothing and physiological conditioning.
As the world prepare responses to the ongoing crises, adopting and harnessing various approaches to mitigate the detrimental effect of climate change and carbon emission, a focus on diet and nutrition status, human health and wellbeing must also be prioritized.

		Background
	
	
Protein is an essential nutrient that serves many critical functions for metabolism, growth, maintenance, and overall health. With looming population growth and fast aging populations, the World Bank and World Food Program estimated that a 50-70% increase in protein supply is required to feed the estimated 10 billion global population by 2050.  This need is exacerbated by climate change and recent prolonged pandemic and geographical conflicts.
New initiatives and research by government agencies, academia, agri-technology and food sectors are reviewing protein needs in the context of production, health and sustainability. Within Southeast Asia, it is timely to re-assess protein sources, requirements and intakes across life stages, and to evaluate protein quality in our varied diets. New knowledge on protein science and novel protein sources will inform dietary recommendations, advance innovation and product development, and help address nutritional and sustainability gaps.
This symposium will bring together subject experts, researchers, health professionals, food scientists, government agencies, industry and product innovators to share and discuss the latest from research to development.

		Objectives
	
	

Review protein science, requirements and intake data in the context of health and sustainability in SE Asia
Evaluate the impact of dietary shifts on protein quality in SE Asia
Provide an update on regional and international evidences on the role of protein in health and functions
Share new developments, innovations and insights related to traditional and alternative/complementary protein sources, including consumer acceptance and regulatory considerations
Discuss research gaps and collaborative opportunities to address protein and nutrition security challenges, amidst dietary shift and food system transformations globally and in SE Asia

		Background
	
	
According to the World Resources Institute, global temperatures have risen by 1.1 ºC, with call to limit target increase to within 1.5 ºC goals for 2050, while UNEP is predicting a bleak scenario with temperature rise of 2.4-2.6°C by the end of this century. The just published 2022  Lancet Countdown Report on  Health and Climate Change highlighted the predicament of increased risk of food insecurity, infectious disease transmissions and heat related ailments, putting additional strain on health systems and productivities. as experience by recent global pandemic outbreak, extreme heat waves, increase precipitations and other natural disasters. The potential impact of diet and nutrition in mitigating the effect of climate change such as heat proofing humans and heat stress management is largely underexplored, yet an important area to investigate where strategies have traditionally been focused on the environment, clothing and physiological conditioning.
As the world prepare responses to the ongoing crises, adopting and harnessing various approaches to mitigate the detrimental effect of climate change and carbon emission, a focus on diet and nutrition status, human health and wellbeing must also be prioritized.
