Happy Holidays!
At the December 11th House of Delegates meeting, members from the Council on Future Practice (CFP) presented an overview of changing science as a driver of change to the profession. Delegates engaged in small group discussions on changing science within the nutrition and dietetics profession and across the broader public landscape. You can view the CFP presentation and read the summary here. Delegates emphasized how declining public trust and misinformation complicate acceptance of evolving evidence. They explored implications for workforce readiness, ethical responsibilities, and communication strategies. Insights focus on empowering dietitians through timely access to evidence, stronger scientific literacy, and transparent leadership.
