We have launched a new podcast series called "Is obesity a gateway to other chronic diseases?".


Our first episode discusses Obesity & Type 2 Diabetes with our Executive Director Vicki Mooney, our Netherlands representative Natasja Wiljing, and our Irish representative Susie Birney who discuss their lived experiences of both of these non-communicable diseases.

Living With Obesity Campaign - Voices of Youth in Obesity


Teenagers from across Europe participated in a major international campaign to help them, their parents, caregivers, and healthcare professionals a better understanding of the challenges of living with overweight or obesity.


For this years campaign, we have launched a new Podcast to raise awareness of lack of support and understanding of the challenges of teenagers (adolescents). We have been joined with a number of youths to share their perspective of what it is like to live with Obesity during these vital life moulding years.
