Ms. Marynold Purificacion (Biochem-ASL, IPB, CAFS) and Dr. Leila Africa (NPPD, IHNF, CHE) attended the Food Composition Workshop: Development of Good Quality Food Composition Database last 18-20 November 2024 at The Quarter Hualamphong by UHG, Bangkok, Thailand.

The said event was organized by the Institute of Nutrition, Mahidol University (INMU), and funded by the Asian Food and Agriculture Cooperation Initiative (AFACI). The workshop emphasized the importance of data quality, standardization, and documentation to ensure the reliability and comparability of food composition data across different regions and studies. It also encouraged the application of food composition databases in food policy, research, and the food industry to support evidence-based decision-making for nutrition and health.
