Taormina
Taormina Resolution (2007)
At the 2007 General Meeting of the European Federation of the Associations of Dietitians, held in Taormina, Italy, delegates from the 20 member associations present agreed that a new resolution, building on the aims already established by the Roskilde Resolution, was needed.
The resulting Taormina Resolution aims:
- To set a benchmark for teachers of dietetics and quality indicators for practice education
- To define European Dietetic Competencies and prioritise Life Long Learning
- To agree a common language by defining technical terms
EFAD and the DIETS Thematic Network will work towards meeting the aims of the Taormina resolution.

| A dietitian is a person with a qualification in Nutrition & Dietetics recognised by national authority. The dietitian applies the science of nutrition to the feeding and education of groups of people and individuals in both health and disease. |
 | The European Dietetic Competence Statements, which describe what a dietitian should be able to do at the point of qualification, were unanimously adopted by the 20th EFAD General Meeting in September 2009. This is an important step for the dietetic profession in Europe and is a very notable outcome for the DIETS Thematic Network. Read Competence Statements |
