PAN South Africa Annual Review 2024

The Physicians Association for Nutrition South Africa's 2024 annual review captures a powerful year of progress in advancing plant-based nutrition, advocating for reshaping the South African health system, and educating the next generation of healthcare professionals.

From publishing impactful research in the South African Journal of Clinical Nutrition to delivering over 3,000 CPD points to healthcare professionals and expanding our reach to university campuses nationwide, 2024 was a milestone year.

We also elevated plant-forward diets in national health conversations, contributed to global climate-health dialogues at COP29, and reached over 10 million South Africans through our communications campaigns.

Whether you're a health professional, a medical student, or an advocate for sustainable diets, this review shows what’s possible when nutrition becomes a catalyst for change in healthcare.
