The NNI and WNSC 102 Workshop, “Growing Strong: Harnessing the Power of Nutrition for Child Health,” explored the critical role of optimal nutrition in shaping growth patterns, promoting healthy development, and ensuring proper nourishment for the brain, bones, and overall growth. It also examined the influence of environmental factors and exposures, along with strategies to optimize these elements. Additionally, the workshop delved into the impact of nutrition on growth and the long-term risk of non-communicable diseases, with a focus on interventions during preconception, fetal development, and the postnatal period to reduce their incidence.
