Exciting to see the launch of the MOVING #PhysicalActivity policy database today! Excellent resource to accompany @wcrfint’s long-standing #NOURISHING framework and database. Valuable tools for governments, researchers and civil society.
Our new MOVING database has launched! 🎉
This database contains #PhysicalActivity policy actions that have been implemented around the world to help reduce #obesity rates.

Today we are launching the third report in our policy series, 'Building Momentum: lessons on implementing robust food and non-alcoholic beverage marketing restrictions'. The full report is available online for free: wcrf.org/marketing #enoughNCDs #childhoodobesity
Dr Soumya Swaminathan, Chief Scientist @WHO, highlights that research & development funding globally for major NCD risk factors (unhealthy diet, tobacco, physical inactivity, air pollution) does not match burden of disease. More investment needed in prevention. #ScienceMatters

"Research and policy evaluations have demonstrated that #taxes increase price, decrease purchases and reduce consumption of unhealthy food and drink."
In an article published today on @GNReport blog, @wcrfint provides tips for policy makers on designing taxes to reduce #obesity.

It has taken a long time to fully integrate all forms of malnutrition, despite common drivers, says @CorinnaHawkes, “We can’t separate undernutrition & #obesity/#NCDs & pretend they’re different & ‘someone else’s’ problem.”
Doing this misses opportunities for double duty actions

Policy incoherence can make government efforts to address #foodsystems challenges less effective. The diagram in our latest brief from @thefoodrules and @corinnahawkes on #foodpolicy coherence illustrates why a holistic #foodsystems approach is needed

Every "spoke" on this wheel is an opportunity to intervene with policy. If all the spokes are involved the wheel is perfect & gets you where you want to go! @wcrfint advocate for a comprehensive approach to tackle overweight & #obesity
