It is with great sorrow that we received the message that in the many losses due to the earthquake in Turkey and Syria also dietetic colleagues and students lost their lives.
We want to convey our deepest condolences to all who lost their family, friends, colleagues, and acquaintances. Our heart is with you.
There is a huge need for basic supplies but also for medical assistance and we received messages about the need for nutritional supplements, baby food, gluten-free products etc.
We encourage our audience to support and donate. You can use the funds in your own country which are familiar with the situation. Another possibility is to donate via the WHO foundation; you can find more information on their website.
