    Who Should Use This Directory

    The ADAF Directory of Resources for International Food, Nutrition, and Dietetics Professionals is designed for

    use by practitioners, graduates with baccalaureate (or equivalent), or graduate degrees in nutrition

    (biomedical), food, dietetics, public health, agriculture, foodservice management, food science, food

    science technology, and related areas. Individuals pursuing a professional degree may use this

    directory, or professionals who are seeking continuing education, training or work experience

    nationally or internationally. Contact information and general guidelines for numerous organizations

    that offer financial assistance for studies in the United States and other countries are provided.

    How to Use the Directory

    The ADAF Directory ofResources for International Food, Nutrition, and Dietetics Professionalswas created to

    simplify the process of seeking financial assistance for international students and professionals by

    organizing food, nutrition, dietetics and other related resources and contact information in one

    source. This Directory is divided into six sections. The first section lists those organizations that

    provide resources to American students and professionals. The second section lists the organizations

    that provide financial assistance to individuals of any nationality studying or gaining practice

    experience in the US and in other countries. The third section lists resources available to nationals of

    specific (non-US) countries for studying in their home country and/or abroad. The fourth sectionlists other resources that are useful when searching for financial assistance or work experience

    abroad, such as international education organizations, literature, and websites. The fifth section lists

    networking groups associated with the ADA and the sixth section lists international nutrition and

    dietetic associations as a source of contact for nationals of specific countries. The goal of this project

    has been to provide information as complete and accurate as possible about the organizations and

    agencies listed in this Directory. Where applicable, we have provided the address, telephone and/or

    fax number, and website of the organizations or agency, the contact person, areas of study, the

    number and size of awards, eligibility requirements and deadlines.

    Please note thatThe ADAF Directory of Resources for International Food, Nutrition, and Dietetics Professionals

    is not an exhaustive listing because the database is very extensive and ever changing. We, therefore,

    encourage nutrition students and professionals who are seeking financial assistance to explore otherdirectories and other possible avenues to assist with funding opportunities. To conduct a search a

    variety of keywords would be helpful they include; nutrition, food and dietetics. Additional

    resources may be found under agriculture, agricultural science, human and health sciences,

    family and consumer sciences, biomedical nutrition, public health, community nutrition. We

    encourage any and all readers to give us feedback about the ADAF Directory of Resources for International

    Food, Nutrition, and Dietetics Professionals.

    Should you discover scholarships, fellowships, grants and/or awards that may be suitable for this

    directory during your research for funding, we would be grateful for your contribution toward our

    efforts in maintaining the most current information. It is anticipated that additional opportunities

    exist or will become available before the Directory is revised. Appendix A includes a form that

    should be used to send any new information to the ADA Foundation, attention Scholarships and

    Awards Manager. Any new funding opportunities (Scholarships/fellowships/grants/stipends) will

    be printed in the next revision of theADAF Directory of Resources for International Food, Nutrition, and

    Dietetics Professionals. The quality, effectiveness and resourcefulness of this Directory will be preserved

    with your help.
