Abstract
Launched in 1994, the European Nutrition Leadership Platform (ENLP) has evolved over three decades into a unique and internationally recognised initiative for the development of leadership skills in the field of nutrition and public health. Through its two training programmes, the ENLP Essentials programme, designed primarily for early-career professionals and emerging leaders in nutrition, food science, and health, and the ENLP Advanced programme, tailored to mid-career and senior professionals seeking to enhance their leadership capacity, equips participants with scientific communication and interpersonal skills while fostering resilience, authenticity, and cross-sector collaboration. With more than 1000 graduates, many of whom now hold leading positions in academia, industry, government, and non-governmental organisations, the programme has proven its impact on professional development and the nutrition landscape. At IUNS-ICN 2025 in Paris, the ENLP celebrated its 30
th
anniversary and emphasised that leadership in the nutrition sector is best defined by authenticity, caring, resilience, and shared values. In the coming decades, the programme will continue to focus on inclusivity, adaptability, and vision, demonstrating that investing in people is the most powerful lever for improving nutrition and public health.
