Welcome to

MDA Conference 2026

Dear Esteemed Delegates and Colleagues,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 32nd Malaysian Dietitians’ Association National Conference (MDA 2026), which will be held on 4–5 July 2026 at The Vertical, Connexion Conference & Event Centre (CCEC), Bangsar South, Kuala Lumpur.

This year’s theme, “Empowering Dietitians: Science, Skills & Leadership,” reflects our shared commitment to advancing professional knowledge, refining practical skills, and strengthening leadership in the field of dietetics. Building on previous years’ progress, this conference emphasizes not only learning and collaboration but also taking actionable steps to elevate the practice of dietetics across clinical care, public health, and community nutrition.

MDA 2026 offers a vibrant program of plenary sessions, workshops, forums, symposiums, and research presentations, carefully designed to inspire, challenge, and equip dietitians to meet the evolving needs of the populations we serve. This is a unique opportunity to exchange ideas, foster collaborations, and engage with thought leaders from across the nation and region.

I encourage all participants to fully embrace this platform for professional growth, innovation, and connection. Thank you for joining us, and I look forward to welcoming you in Kuala Lumpur for an engaging and enriching conference experience.

Prof Dr Barakatun Nisak Mohd Yusof
Conference Chair
