Outstanding subsequent meetings of the First International Congress ,,Health – Nutrition – Wellbeing”

After the First International Congress ,,Health-Nutrition-Wellbeing which took place at Aro Palace Hotel, Brasov, 15-17 October, 2011, under the patronage of the Romanian Patriarchate, The Romanian Academy, The Ministry of Public Health, The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, The Ministry of Education, Research, Innovation and Sport in collaboration with the International Association of Distribution (A.I.D.A Bruxelles) and EHI Retail Institute, there were outstanding subsequent meetings held in Bucharest, including at the Romanian-American University and the Academy of Economic Studies.

    On this occasion, Professor John. L. Stanton (Saint Joseph’s University’s, Philadelphia), Honorary President of the Congress, held discussions with and handed Diplomas of “SANABUNA Award to distinguished members of the Scientific Committee of the Congress, Professor Ovidiu Folcuț, Rector of the Romanian-American University, and Professor Dumitru Miron, Vice-rector of the Academy of Economic Studies. The two Diplomas have been signed by the President of the Organizing Committee of the Congress, Professor Florian Popa, Rector of the Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacie, Bucharest.

As it is known, within the framework of this First International Congress ,,Health-Nutrition-Wellbeing”, leading professors attending the event have signed a letter of intent (www.european-retail-academy.org/index.php) with the view to cooperate in the future on significant topics: a Romanian Competence Center for Global good agricultural practices and “smartagrifood”; enriching the Eurasian Youth Forum by a „Black Sea/Caspian Sea Area Initiative” to promote together higher education, innovation and the Bologna process; pushing that initiative of cosmopolitan Youth Organizations also via the Astana Economic Forum in Kazakhstan organized among others by the Eurasian Club of Scientists, the Club of Madrid and the G 20. The parties concerned want to use those three activities to create student exchanges by EU-projects like Tempus, Erasmus and Leonardo da Vinci as well as with transatlantic cooperation involving the USAID, USDA and identify the link between higher education, innovation in the business community and future employment opportunities and sustainable development in the Eurasia region. It is also known (www.crd-aida.ro) that the debates were the true expression of the strugling for unity of knowledge beyond disciplines (transdisciplinarity), starting from reuniting a range of disciplines independently contributing to the „Health-Nutrition-Wellbeing” disciplinary investigation (multidisciplinarity) and especially from blending methods in order to generate new and improved tools better adapted to the „Health-Nutrition-Wellbeing” disciplinary research (interdisciplinarity).
