Abstract

Halting the rise in obesity among children, adolescents, and adults is essential to combat the growing burden of non-communicable diseases and to improve nutrition, health, and wellbeing for all. Failing to do so threatens progress towards reducing premature mortality from non-communicable diseases by 30%—a key target of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
