About National Nutrition Network - Early Childhood Education and Care

The National Nutrition Network’s mission is to promote healthy sustainable food environments within Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) settings in order to positively impact the developmental outcomes for children. Given the high volume of children who attend ECEC settings, there is an ideal opportunity to translate evidence for policy and practice to foster healthier and more sustainable food environments for the children accessing these services. This is particularly important given the ECEC sector must now maintain national standards established by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA). In order to support the sector, the National Nutrition Network was formed as a mechanism to build collaboration between key stakeholders.
