World Obesity at the 77th World Health Assembly
World Obesity Federation, World Health Organization, | 25 Jun 2024
The World Obesity team joined our members and fellow health organisations at the 77th World Health Assembly (WHA) in Geneva to progress action on obesity.
The 77th WHA started off at Walk the Talk and with the World Heart Summit, launching a full week of moments and events where civil society, health champions and governments gathered, solidifying coalitions, as we move towards the 2025 United Nations High-Level Meeting on NCDs.
The World Obesity team, including President-Elect Simón Barquera, CEO Johanna Ralston, and Head of Policy Magdalena Wetzel, teamed up with fellow health organisations, including the Global Obesity Coalition (World Obesity, WHO and UNICEF) and our members from Ghana, Zambia, the GASOL Foundation, ECPO and GOPA/EASO.
