Raising Awareness for Malnutrition in Italy: MAW 2024 Video by SINPE and ONCA Italy
In a world where healthcare advancements are at the forefront of improving lives, one issue often remains overlooked: malnutrition. This hidden epidemic affects millions, particularly the vulnerable populations in hospitals, care homes, and even within communities. Malnutrition Awareness Week (MAW) 2024 is a crucial initiative aimed at changing that narrative, and we’re excited to share the official video from SINPE (Società Italiana di Nutrizione Artificiale e Metabolismo) and the Italian ONCA team as part of this year’s awareness efforts.
Watch the Official MAW 2024 Italy Video
The video highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing malnutrition in healthcare settings across Italy and Europe. Proper nutritional care not only prevents malnutrition but also contributes significantly to improving the quality of life for patients. The goal of MAW 2024 is to raise public and professional awareness about the risks associated with poor nutritional status and to promote best practices in nutritional care.
Why Malnutrition Awareness Matters
Malnutrition is often called the “silent threat.” It affects both individuals who are visibly undernourished and those who seem healthy but are nutritionally compromised. In Italy, like in many parts of Europe, the growing awareness around this issue has prompted organizations like SINPE and ONCA Italy to take a proactive approach.

- Watch and share the official MAW 2024 video to help spread awareness.
