The 'Obesity: An Overview of Current Landscape and Prevention-related
Activities in Ontario' report - French version is now available
http://www.ocdpa.on.ca/rpt_Obesity_Current_Landscape.htm
The Ontario Chronic Disease Prevention Alliance (OCDPA) was contracted
by the Public Health Agency of Canada - Ontario and Nunavut (PHAC-ON/NU)
regional office to perform a literature review and compile a list of
obesity prevention-related initiatives within the province of Ontario.
Based on previous work in the area, the OCDPA was asked to develop a
resource for use by PHAC-ON/NU staff from various divisions to enhance
awareness and support knowledge exchange on the issues, background and
current landscape of obesity prevention-related activities in Ontario.
