Help us raise £5,000 to fund bursaries for 15 exceptional African students

(Every pound you donate will be matched by The Nutrition Society — doubling your impact.)

Across Africa, the next generation of nutrition scientists are working to improve public health, drive evidence‑based policy, and strengthen food systems. Yet many talented students cannot afford to attend the African Nutrition Conferences, a critical opportunity to learn, connect, and share their work with global leaders.

By supporting this bursary fund, you are investing directly in their future, and in the future of nutrition research across the continent. When we empower early‑career scientists, we strengthen communities, improve health outcomes, and accelerate progress where it is most needed.

Your donation removes the financial barriers that prevent students from attending this pivotal conference. Each bursary covers essential costs such as registration, travel support, and accommodation, ensuring students can fully participate, present their research, and build networks that shape their careers.

And to amplify your generosity, The Nutrition Society will match every pound you give, doubling the number of lives and careers transformed.

We aim to raise £5,000, which - when matched by The Nutrition Society - will fully fund 15 bursaries for outstanding African students to attend the African Nutrition Conference.

Your gift, no matter the size, directly enables:

• Access to world‑class scientific sessions

• Opportunities to present research on an international stage

• Mentorship and networking with leading experts

• Skills and knowledge these students will take back to their communities

Give today — and help open the door to a brighter, healthier future for African nutrition science.
