Tariq Sundoo, thanks H.E. Maja Derrous Mortensen for the information about the celebration and recognition of this important day on obesity, as we are seeing increasing numbers of overweight children and adults worldwide, and it calls for action to prevent and treat obesity. Practical solutions may include promoting healthy lifestyle habits, improved nutrition, increased physical activity, and policy measures to create a healthier environment.
