DA 2020 Virtual Plenary Package

Join us for these three sessions from 2020 DA Virtual Plenary Program at a discounted rate.

1. Emerging Plenary: Discover, Grow, Evolve
Join us for this exciting plenary session, designed to help emerging dietitians discover where their career could take them! President Tara Diversi will introduce our revamped conference process and provide a short personal early career journey. Joyce Haddad will outline her experience gained through her internship position with the World Health Organization HQ in Geneva. Hear from last year’s Young Achiever Award winner Jorja Collins about her early career journey. These three dynamic APDs will certainly provide much inspiration for emerging dietitians to grow and evolve their own careers!

2. The Healthy and Sustainable Landscape: Now and Into the Future
We are thrilled that Dr Walt Willett will join us via video link from the US to discuss the implications of EAT Lancet for dietitians. Professor Mark Lawrence will then present on healthy and sustainable food systems in Australia, focusing on the role of dietitians. As part of this engaging session, Founder and Executive Director of the Australian peak body on climate change and health, the Climate and Health Alliance (CAHA), Fiona Armstrong will outline sustainability and health in Australia. There will a panel Q&A to complete this session.

3. Implementation and Translation: Keys to Success
Join us as Executive Director of the Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI), Dr Robyn Mildon discusses the link between evidence, policy and practice, and outlines examples of application in children, families and communities. We are also lucky to welcome Associate Professor Shelley Wilkinson AdvAPD who will discuss implementation and translation in clinical practice.
