Subsidized (free) subscriptions
To ensure that nutrition researchers and health professionals in developing countries have access to the latest food and nutrition research, the FNB provides donated or subsidized subscriptions to eligible individuals who are unable to afford a paid subscription. The cost of these subscriptions is underwritten by the Nevin Scrimshaw International Nutrition Foundation and corporate sponsors.
The extent to which requests for free subscriptions can be met depends on available funds. Individuals living in industrialized countries or holding international posts working with international and bilateral agencies, international nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and private corporations are not eligible for subsidized (free) subscriptions.
