The availability and accessibility of affordable healthy food are factors for the state of the population and nations and so a technical committee, formed to pursue and activate the goals of the "United Arab Emirates National Nutrition Strategy 2022-2030,” has scheduled a February 2023 "stakeholder’s workshop” with the food and beverage (F&B) industry, according to a Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHaP) official.

This is the second nutrition strategy. The first was from 2017 to 2021.
