Micronutrient deficiencies, particularly vitamin A, iodine, and iron, pose a significant threat to public health in Pakistan, with far-reaching consequences for childhood growth and development. Vitamin A deficiency alone is a leading cause of childhood blindness and increases the risk of infection and mortality.

To address this pressing issue, we’re bringing together key stakeholders, including policymakers, industry representatives, health professionals, and consumer advocacy groups. This seminar aims to:

  • Highlight the importance of edible oil fortification in preventing micronutrient deficiencies
  • Discuss the harmful effects of trading loose and used oil on public health
  • Explore strategies for implementing and scaling up edible oil fortification in Pakistan
  • Foster collaboration and action among stakeholders to drive positive change

Don’t miss this opportunity to contribute to a healthier future for Pakistan!
