A Centre of Excellence for Life-Cycle Nutrition Research, Training and Evidence-to-Policy Action
Nutrition Foundation of Bangladesh (NFB) started its activities in 2004 as a national nutrition-focused organization to advance nutrition knowledge, research capacity, professional training, and evidence-based action in Bangladesh.
