From 3 to 5 October 2022, the 2nd edition of GOZO, an international conference on healthy and sustainable school food, took place at the Bizkaia Aretoa Congress Centre in Bilbao, organized by Justicia Alimentaria and EHIGE.
This year’s programme focused on the role of institutions and public policies for healthier and more sustainable food consumption and social tools for controlling institutional power in the food sector.
CEIDSS was pleased to be present at this important conference, represented by nutritionist Sofia Mendes, who shared Portugal’s experience in promoting healthy eating habits and combating childhood obesity, highlighting the Portuguese law published on 23 April 2019 that restricts advertising aimed at under 16 years old for food and drink, as Spain recognizes the importance of regulating and implementing such a measure.
We would like to thank the organization for inviting us to share Portugal’s experience in promoting healthy eating habits and combating childhood obesity.
