European Nutrition Leadership Programme

The European Nutrition Leadership Programme (ENLP) is a programme which aims to assist the development of future leaders in the field of human nutrition in Europe. During a 1-week course, held annually since 1994, emphasis is placed on understanding the qualities and skills of leadership, team building, communication and the role of nutrition and science in society. This is achieved through a varied and highly interactive programme, which includes role-playing, presentations, discussion groups and talks by leading European nutritionists.

Leadership, team-building and communication are the cornerstones of the ENLP course and training young nutritionists in these fields has generated an active network, which can help to create European approaches in nutrition and health and food safety.

The 30 participants at the programme are selected each year from final year PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, the food industry or government (age 35 or younger) and are all interested and active in food, nutrition and health at large, mainly from Europe. The selection process is undertaken by an international committee based on the individual's application to the ENLP.
