ACD 2026 MANILA

Welcome Message

Prof. Velasco

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Warm greetings and Mabuhay!

I warmly invite you to join us at the Asian Congress of Dietetics 2026 in Manila, Philippines. Manila previously hosted the 4th ACD in 2006, and we are honored to once again welcome dietitians, nutrition professionals, researchers, and partners from across Asia and around the world.

This year is especially meaningful because ACD 2026 will be held in a hybrid format for the first time, allowing more colleagues to participate globally. We will also celebrate Asian Dietitian’s Day together with international partners.

Our theme, “Leading Asia Towards Sustainable Health and Wellness,” highlights the vital role of dietitians in addressing today’s challenges.

Participants will also have the opportunity to join educational tours in food service, public health communities, academia, and hospital settings.

And of course, as we say, It’s More Fun in the Philippines!

Thank you and see you soon.

Prof. Zenaida F. Velasco Over-All Chair, ACD 2026
