World Health Organisation (WHO), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and the Emergency Nutrition Network (ENN) are pleased to invite you to a webinar providing updates on the WHO Wasting Guideline Development Process.

Date: 18th November 2021 | Time: 14:00-15:00 (UK, BST) 
(15:00-16:00 Geneva, CEST) (09:00-10:00 New York, EDT)

The process for developing the WHO guidelines for the prevention and treatment of wasting is well underway. Since the last webinar on the process in September 2020 much has happened. In this upcoming webinar we will provide an update on what stage has been reached, what is still to come, and what the revised timeframe is. 

Plenty of time will be saved for questions from participants during the live webinar. Also, upon registration (link below) there is an opportunity to ask advance questions that will help inform the presentations – please register early to make the most of this feature. The webinar will be held in English.

Please register here and find the video of the September 2020 webinar here.
