We are excited to announce this
Plenary Panel for the 10th Biennial
Childhood Obesity Conference!
The Food and Health Roller-Coaster: The Ride that All Lives Depend On
Join us for a conversation about the past, present, and future of our shared work to provide equitable opportunities for health for all children. This session will explore how far we have come and how the work has evolved over time. The speakers will discuss the changes in approaches that include individual interventions, policy and physical environment changes, and addressing the root causes of health inequities that remove the ability to make healthy choices for some. The panelists will also unpack the current conditions that both require vigilance and persistence to maintain our successes while continuing to compel us forward with emerging and innovative strategies. This session will serve as a call to action for all conference attendees searching for a place in the future of working towards universal child health.
