>> Seminar 1: Food environments, food cultures and obesity
>>
>> Wednesday 17th January, 2007
>> Kings Fund, London, 12-4pm
>>
>> A recent review on the role of the food environment in the development
>> of obesity has noted that there exists a substantial knowledge gaps over
>> how much the food environment matters for obesity, both within and
>> between developed nations (Cummins & Macintyre, 2006). Hypotheses have
>> tended to focus on physical opportunities for food consumption (within
>> and outside the home) and environmental cues for the consumption of
>> unhealthy food through advertising and promotion within the
>> neighbourhood, school and workplace but there has been little work that
>> directly assesses these environmental risks with measures of obesity or
>> investigates the role of social networks, peer groups, culture and
>> context in the generation of unhealthy eating behaviours. This seminar
>> will stimulate cross-disciplinary discussions about how different types
>> of physical (neighbourhood, home, school, workplace) and social
>> (families, peer groups, networks and cultures) environments might affect
>> food and eating and how these environments may interact to promote
>> obesity.
>>
>> Speakers
>> Professor Johannes Brug, Department of Public Health, Erasmus University
>> Medical Centre, Netherlands
>> "What is the evidence for an obesogenic food environment?"

>> Dr Amelia Lake, Human Nutrition Research Centre, University of

>> "A glimpse into the food environments of young adults: perceptions &
>> observations"
