Dear all,
I would like to announce that we have a new coordinator in OCEANIAFOODS. Many of you will know Siva Sivakumaran from Plant & Food Research working on the
New Zealand Food Composition Database
since several years. I would like to sincerely congratulate him for this appointment. I am sure that he and Jayashree will build an effective team in bringing food composition forward in the region.
I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Judy Cunningham who hold the coordinator position for several years. She has done a great job thank. Her expertise and kindness made her a valuable asset. She has retired
now but I hope that she will continue being active.
Looking forward to collaborate with OCEANIAFOODS and its members and to continue the great work on food composition started 30 years ago.
Best wishes
Ruth
P.S. May I take this opportunity to inform you that FAO has a new rule where 7-10% of staff need to move to another duty station each year. I was selected this year as part of this mobility rule and will go to our regional office in Santiago
de Chile. I will be able to continue being the INFOODS coordinator. The level of activities will need to be established when I will be in Chile starting November 2017
