group of food and nutrition professionals in New Zealand
S P O N S O R S H I P P R O S P E C T U S
Dietitians New Zealand (DNZ) works to
build a strong and sustainable profession
that empowers all Kiwis about food and
nutrition, and inspire change to enhance
the health and wellbeing of Aotearoa.
We do this by raising the standard of
dietetic practice, professional leadership,
advocacy and lobbying and raising
awareness of nutrition and its role in
health and wellness.
We are committed to providing
dietitians with the educational
resources and on-going training
opportunities to keep them up to date
with current research, techniques and
standards of care.
DiNZ values the relationships we have
with organisations, such as yourselves,
and are keen to work with you for mutual
benefit.
The Sustainability Partnership
sponsorship offers a unique opportunity
to engage with key professionals and
influencers in the food, nutrition and
health industries, including registered
dietitians, nutritionists, food writers,
food technologists and chefs. This is ideal

research, and gain valuable feedback,

with some of New Zealand’s most well-
regarded professionals from the foodie
community.
DNZ Sustainability RoadshowWhy do environmentally sustainable diets matter?
Up to 49% of green house gas (GHG)
emissions in Aotearoa are linked to
agriculture and food production, and the
environmental impact of the food we eat
is one of the key changes we can make
to tackle the issue of climate change*.
Climate change is primarily caused
by the accumulation of GHGs in the
atmosphere due to human activities.
New Zealands share of global GHG
emissions is small, but our gross
emissions per person are high.
Food systems have the potential
to nurture human health and support
environmental sustainability; however,
they are currently threatening both.
Providing a growing global population
with healthy diets from sustainable food
systems is an immediate challenge.
DNZ Sustainability Roadshow eventsDNZ believes dietitians should be
able to reconcile the nutritional and
environmental science to give consistent
messages about healthy, sustainable
diets. They should be aware of the
challenges that may result for vulnerable
groups and individuals and be able to
provide advice on sustainable eating as
appropriate.
All of the Sustainability Events (eight
in total) will be on-farm and focus on a
key food group so that at the conclusion
all of the key food groups will have been
represented. With up to 60 attendees at
each event, the events are anticipated
to commence at 9 am and conclude
between 3-4 pm.
The objective of the events is to
provide regional platforms to bring
together professionals working in food,
to discuss sustainability, what it means
and importantly how it applies to food
and nutrition in Aotearoa.
By bringing together a diverse
range of perspectives, and
incorporating learning of local food
production initiatives, we anticipate
providing those who attend current
and accurate information regarding
the sustainability of the food

systems in a New Zealand context.
These will feature a diverse
programme of sessions, which have
been developed to expand their
nutrition expertise and professional
development.
Our education programme will
provide current and pertinent tools,
and knowledge regarding sustainability
of our food system in a New Zealand
context, for dietetic and nutrition
professionals to share with their clients
and consumers.
Our Sustainability Roadshow
presentations offer a unique level
of engagement, interaction, and
meaningful person-to-person contact
between our attendees, our session
presenters, and our sponsors, in an
environment in which it hasn’t been
done before.
Emily KingFor three years, leading scientists
worked on Food in the Anthropocene: the
EAT-Lancet Commission on healthy diets
from sustainable food systems. We are
delighted to have Emily join us on the
Roadshow; she will present key findings
of the report, in particular:
• Why is this report special?
• What does this mean for Aotearoa,
New Zealand?
• What does this mean for food
businesses and consumers?
Emily has more than a decade’s
experience working in and researching
food systems. It’s a journey that’s taken her
from investigating seed practices in Cuba
to running a climate change adaptation
forum focusing on resilient urban food in
Germany, on trains across Canada and a
bike tour of the USA, hunting out ways to
change the food system.
Having trained and practiced as
an environmental lawyer, Emily then
focused on food as a solution to
environmental challenges.
She was named one of Food Tank’s
top 20 global food leaders under 40 for
her work restoring New Zealand’s food
system, has judged the Outstanding
New Zealand Food Producer awards
sustainability category for the past three
years, helped set up The Kitchen Project...
And she is just getting started!

Why become a sponsor?Our sponsors are the anchors of
our continuing educational events
which enable dietitians and nutrition
professionals to enhance their
knowledge and skills. We seek ethical,
appropriate and relevant partnerships,
with companies that have the same goal
as ours: optimising the nutrition and
improving the health of New Zealanders.
Sponsorship of this event provides a
platform unlike any other to showcase
your company and its products and
services to a targeted audience of people
who have an interest in topics and
research related to your business.
Industry involvement is one of the
key elements in the success of DNZ’s
continued education programme
to its members. Your presence and
contributions are key to enhancing
the overall value of the Sustainability
Roadshow by supporting and promoting
New Zealand’s dietitian and nutrition
profession as a partner.
We encourage your consideration
of participating as a valued partner
of our Sustainability Roadshow. With
the collaboration of industry, we can
together work toward our mutually
beneficial goal of a healthier community
and future for all New Zealanders.
Local media will be invited to attend
to help share the message, and we
anticipate they will join us given the
topicality of sustainability and how it
effects our communities.
