An interesting method and tool for doing policy analysis on #ncd policies. Importantly it was tested out in some LMIC so perhaps has utility in Sub-Saharan Africa. Hoping to be testing it out for our future research.

Our new paper is out introducing the Policy Cube approach to #NCD policy environments! Thanks to @HPP_LSHTM and our fab #PA4NCDs team. The cubes assesses the strength of national policies to combat diet-related #NCDs & illustrates where progress is needed- academic.oup.com/heapol/advance…

"Healthy diet policies in these countries do not match the severity of the #NCDs burden nor are they designed in such a way that government action will focus on the most critical dietary drivers and population groups at risk" academic.oup.com/heapol/advance… @kentbuse et al. #nutrition

Listen to our Director, Prof Sarah Hawkes, argue for the need for a global, collaborative approach to tackling childhood obesity and pervasive advertising. You can also watch the Food Diaries films as featured on @BBCFoodProg at healthysocieties2030.org/films @BiteBack2030 @jamieoliver

With #bigbooze turning to social media, and particularly influencers, its time to support countries restrict marketing practices to address our #alcohologenic environments - interesting analysis on advertising by @socialbakers bit.ly/2H2jakX

Great to have our work discussed on @BBCFoodProg - @feminineupheave talks about our Food Diaries films & the pervasive problem of global advertising, arguing that to turn off the tap rather than mop up the symptoms, we need global collaboration to tackle obesity. Take a listen!
The Food Programme@BBCFoodProg

If you missed part 1 of our programme on #childobesity, listen again now: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00… For Part 2: WE NEED YOU! How do we get young people eating better? @SheilaDillon will be joined by an expert panel to answer your questions. Tweet / email thefoodprogramme@bbc.co.uk

Yes - as @kentbuse says, now is the time to push for our right to healthy diets- and we need action now. Join 200 global leaders + 100 new signatories and join our call to incite action on #humanrights & healthy diets healthysocieties2030.org/human-rights/s… #BeatNCDs #Right2healthydiets
World Obesity@WorldObesity

“Now is the time to codify that agenda in a rights framework to ensure action and accountability.” Couldn't have said it better ourselves @kentbuse! Check out the work of @TheLancet commission on #obesity here, one year on: worldobesity.org/what-we-do/pro… #GlobalSyndemic

Commission's report is a landmark in connecting dots between nutrition, diets, food systems & planet- thanks to @TheLancet @WorldObesity @BoydSwinburn & commissioners. Policymakers must act on recommendations and #humanrights guidance could compel them to do so. @johanna_ralston

Researchers from @UCL asked 100 schoolchildren in 7 countries to film themselves and the food they eat. Blanket exposure to junk food advertising is encouraging poor eating habits in kids, and, in many countries, there is a policy vacuum on tackling it. theguardian.com/global-develop…
