Policy options for responding to obesity: evaluating the options
No full textThis summary report maps the views of stakeholders involved in tackling obesity, based on an EC-funded project (Porgrow). The summary report abstracts from 10 individual country reports. The methodology is based on Prof Stirling¿s `multi-criteria mapping¿. Prof Millstone initiated and led the Porgrow project, and identifying obesity as an emerging area for applying science and technology policy is largely due to his efforts. The co-author, Dr Lobstein, was based in SPRU during the writing-up of the project. Further details are given in a special issue of Obesity Reviews (Vol. 8, Supp., May 2007, ISSN 1467-7881)
