We are the 'European Coalition for People living with Obesity' and we work collaboratively across Europe to improve the lives of people who are living with and are affected by the chronic disease of obesity through advocacy, policy and education.
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.
