In the face of a rapidly growing global population, nutrition and dietetics professionals are increasingly challenged by a growing need for interdisciplinary and systems-based approaches to advancing nutrition services and healthcare delivery. One avenue to such change is to address the complex interplay of race, ethnicity and culture. The cultural humility process presents a new opportunity for practitioners to deliberately reflect on their own values and biases to effectively attend to the societal, geopolitical, and professional influences on their daily practice and work. Nutrition and dietetics professionals must navigate the process of cultural humility by also finding ways to focus the energies of diverse disciplines towards the common goal of understanding and developing inclusive environments that advance health and nutrition outcomes at both population and individual levels.
