The Physicians Association for Nutrition (PAN) International aims to raise awareness among health professionals, the general public, and policymakers about the role of whole food, plant-based nutrition in promoting good health and preventing and treating disease. PAN International was established in 2018 as an officially recognized nonprofit organization located in Munich, Germany. The organization is expanding and constantly launching new national
PAN offices around the world to work effectively under local conditions and maximize it’s impact. Currently PAN focuses on teaching medical students and health professionals as part of the PAN Academy, and single events like Europe’s biggest conference on plant-based nutrition in medicine, the VegMed Conference in Berlin. More practical tools to support health professionals in implementing this new knowledge in their daily practice will follow.
