World Cancer Research Fund International released two new publications.

• Law and Obesity Prevention: Addressing some key questions for the public health community [1]
• A food policy package for the prevention of obesity and diet-related non-communicable diseases: the NOURISHING Framework [2]

Both publications share common themes in obesity prevention and advancing the wider implementation of effective policies for healthier diets.

The Law and Obesity paper focuses on the role of law as a mechanism to advance a more effective food policy for obesity prevention – and the specific areas to be engaging more with the legal community.

The WCRF International NOURISHING Framework is a food policy package for healthy diets and the prevention of obesity and diet-related non-communicable diseases.
