Insight on Nutrient Profiling with Breda Gavin-Smith, Sight and Life nutritionist

Not only are food systems complex, but each is also unique to the geography and culture it is supposed to nourish. Building Healthy, Nutritious and Affordable Food Systems for Rwanda through Innovations is a workshop that looked to discover the intricacies and needs to build effective and efficient food systems in Rwanda. We aspire to develop a Food Systems Innovation Hub that will support a positive food system transformation. As a UN Food Systems Summit Independent Dialogue, the ideas and information from this workshop contributed to the upcoming Summit and further developed the Food Systems Innovation Hub concept in Rwanda. The event was moderated by Simon Winter of the Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture and featured: Presentations by Anna Lartey (University of Ghana), Dr Ndabamenye Telesphore (Technical Advisor, Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources – Rwanda), and Breda Gavin-Smith (Sight and Life). A dynamic conversation was led by Kalpana Beesabathuni (Sight and Life) with Namukolo Covic (IFPRI) and more on the importance of innovating affordable, tasty, nutritious foods and how the Food Systems Innovation Hub could support entrepreneurs. Maya Stewart (Lenzie Milling Company)along with Sight and Life team members hosted insightful breakout sessions on entrepreneurship and innovation, creating demand for nutritious foods, food safety, and advocacy and policy, and more.

Food Systems Innovation Hub Workshop

At Sight and Life, we are launching a new initiative – Food Systems Innovation Hubs. We are working to establish hubs in rapidly emerging consumer markets, such as India, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Rwanda, and Kenya to stimulate investment in resilient and responsive food systems, as well as facilitate relevant technology transfer and know-how from HIC to LMIC. Through partnerships, government collaboration, impact investors, and philanthropies in the context of local entrepreneurs, these hubs will catalyze a transformative change for society-wide dietary shifts towards more efficient, healthier, and more environmentally friendly food systems. Moderator: Simon Winter of Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture Speakers: Dr Klaus Kraemer, Dr Charles Karangwa of Rwanda FDA, Ndidi Okonkwo Nwuneli of Sahel Consulting, and Dr Pawan Agarwal of fssai Panelists: Breda Gavin-Smith of Sight and Life, Kalpana Beesabathuni of Sight and Life, Amar Ali of DSM, Ertharin Cousin of Food Systems for the Future and Maya Stewart of Lenziemill Join us in this coordinated effort to improve the world’s food systems. Let’s work together to solve this global problem of peoples’ and planetary health. To learn more about the Food Systems Innovation Hubs, connect with us via info – at – sightandlife.org.
