Structured around three thematic sessions, the summit will focus on nutrition across life stages, food systems and sustainability, and innovations shaping the nutrition ecosystem. Discussions will explore how good nutrition supports well-being, the influence of gender and climate on food choices, and how emerging approaches such as biofortification, fortification, and mental health linkages are redefining nutrition science.

According to the organisers, the summit aims to strengthen partnerships and collective action toward India’s progress on nutrition and the Sustainable Development Goal 2 – Zero Hunger.

Over the past decade, Rise Against Hunger India has served more than 40 million meals and reached 3.8 million people through its food security and livelihood initiatives. By partnering with grassroots NGOs, rural communities, and humanitarian programmes, the organisation has supported vulnerable populations and those affected by disasters.

“The Push For Poshan summit is more than a conference — it is a movement to bring together people, ideas and innovations for a healthier, hunger-free India,” said Mohapatra. “We aim to make it an annual platform that convenes the most committed organisations and practitioners working in the space of nutrition.”
