THE LIGHTS ARE BACK ON!
#ISBNPA2022 - The lights are back on!

(credit Neville Owen for pointing us to this expression)

The first ISBNPA hybrid meeting was a success. With 440 in-person plus 230 online participants, we feel that new paths are illuminated to run our research.

The entire length of the scientific program is now available in the final Abstract Book.

And a glimpse of networking, scientific sessions, look and feel of the conference is registered in the video below.

ISBNPA Vision and Mission Statement

We consulted our members about the new ISBNPA's Vision and Mission Statement during the conference.
The result is below:
Vision
  • ISBNPA is the leading international research community in behavioral nutrition and physical activity.
Mission Statement
  • Stimulate and promote impactful research in behavioral nutrition and physical activity to improve human and planetary health worldwide.

Strategic planning ISBNPA community consultation
ISBNPA's Executive Committee met several times and invited a strategic thinking specialist to help us identify and operationalize the plan.
The next step is to learn what you think about it. We are looking forward to hearing from you.
Please complete this consultation form (10 minutes) to help ISBNPA refine the plan and allocate resources to execute it.

If you are an ISBNPA Member, you may already answer to a form similar to this one. While we have changed a few things since then, feel free to skip replying to this one.

Meet ISBNPA's new Executive Committee Members
The elected EC members' term started at the Assembly General of the Members in Phoenix on May 20, 2022.
Meet the new EC here.
Climate Action Committee
ISBNPA members voted climate action as their top priority. As a result, ISBNPA created the Climate Action Committee pushing our climate action efforts even further (click here to see the videos of our previous efforts).

Some of the Climate Action Committee members are Sebastien Chastin (chair), Erica Hinckson, Ester Cerin, Delfien van Dyck, Rodrigo Reis, and Deborah Salvo. The Climate Action Committee is joining forces with ISPAH and looking for other partnerships and ISBNPA members to join in or send us their ideas.
