The MDA 2024 conference marks the 30th MDA anniversary, the landmark achievement that signifies our three decades of growth, innovation and collaboration in dietetics. We are thrilled to welcome all of you to join us to celebrate our significant milestone during the MDA 2024 conference, with the theme "Opportunities and Diverse Roles in Dietetics", will be held on the 1st -2nd July 2024 at Connexion Conference & Event Centre @ The Vertical, Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur.

The theme is particularly relevant as the field of dietetics has expanded significantly over the years, evolving beyond traditional roles that offer a broader range of career opportunities. We have witnessed this exciting transformation over the last 30th; therefore, the conference serves as a platform to explore the ever-evolving landscape of dietetics in the region. We aim to shed light on the various opportunities and the diverse roles that dietetics now encompasses not only in Malaysia but across Southeast Asia.

This conference offers a variety of discussions, presentations, forums and workshops showcasing the diverse aspects of dietetics. Our expert speakers will share insights, research findings, and practical experiences to inspire and deepen our understanding of the growing field of dietetics. We are also honoured to announce that the esteemed Minister of Health Malaysia, YB. Dato’ Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad will be gracing us with his keynote speech at the conference. 

We encourage you to participate in the sessions actively, engage in fruitful discussions, and build connections with fellow attendees. The exchange of ideas and experiences during the conference will contribute to the collective growth and advancement of dietetics in the regions.

Once again, a heartfelt welcome to the MDA 2024 conference and its 30th anniversary since its establishment. May this conference be a source of knowledge, inspiration, and collaboration for all. Together, let us seize the opportunities that lie ahead and collectively shape the future of dietetics in our region.
