Wow! Olga Zhiteneva from @WHO_Europe says “Self regulation is not enough”
Their research found marketing restrictions prescribed by the EU Pledge are so weak that they gave most food companies surveyed a lot of leeway to continue marketing unhealthy products to children.

The conference’s aim is to confront health by co-creating policy with youth.
Some amazing people with eye-opening discussions and talks .
…and excited to speak later today about @BiteBack2030 junk food ads campaign.

.@DevSharmaMYP from @BiteBack2030 ‘From the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep I am bombarded by unhealthy food ads. The first person to text me when school finished on a Friday was Domino’s with a deal!’
📱 Social media's influence on young people's health and attitudes can't be underestimated. CO-CREATE's insights into its impact are eye-opening. 👀
Now at #COCREATE, a discussion on unhealthy #foodmarketing with Lubos, @WHO_Europe, @beuc, @Movendi_Int, @BiteBack2030 💬📲
