As part of the 2014 Agribusiness & Food World Forum held in Cape Town, South Africa on 15-19 June 2014, Professor Ruth Khasaya Oniang’o received the Distinguished Service Award for her influence on the development of nutrition training and agricultural research and development throughout Africa.
Far beyond her home country of Kenya, Professor Oniang’o has participated in international activities which have helped to generate decisions that have shaped and furthered global food security and nutrition.
