Glanbia Nutritionals, an established leader in whey protein and other dairy-based nutritional ingredients, is actively involved with organizations and projects that have led to and continue to lead to enhanced nutrition for malnourished populations.  Loren Ward PhD, Director of R&D for Glanbia Nutritionals, spoke in December 2008 at the Food and Nutrition Council Meetings held at Columbia University. At those meetings, members of UNICEF, Institute of Human Nutrition and Doctors without Borders discussed nutritional supplements for acute and chronic childhood malnutrition.

Glanbia Nutritionals has had product development interactions through Tabatchnik Fine Foods with many of the major health organizations, including WHO, Doctors without Borders, USAID and UNICEF. The two companies have continued to collaborate on several global nutrition projects, with a number of successes in delivering nutrition to impoverished areas. Glanbia also has a joint venture in Nigeria with Nutricima to produce and package liquid, condensed and powdered milk products for the region. With a broad portfolio of products, including WPC 80 and WPI, Glanbia Nutritionals is well positioned to help any health organization develop and create products for undernourished populations.
