Description
This report argues that lasting comprehensive action is required to address the obesity epidemic in Australia.
In the past ten years the number of people living with obesity has more than doubled, from 2.7 million in 2007–8 to 5.8 million people today. Over a period of just three years, Australia now has 900,000 more people living with obesity.
The Obesity Collective includes more than 100 organisations from across civil society and business.
