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.
