NORMO 2025 Launch: Diets, Activity and Overweight

CLICK HERE TO READ THE REPORT

How can we improve the health of Nordic populations? What are the latest Nordic data about our diets, activity, overweight and obesity?  

The launch event will focus on solutions, collaboration, and actions that can make a real difference: How do we support healthy choices for children, adults, and seniors? How can governments, NGOs, schools, and the private sector work together? And what strategies are needed to address emerging trends, such as energy drink consumption or sedentary lifestyles?
