Virtually NO progress on making NZ food environments healthier since 2014. ~60% of the 47 indicators rated as ‘low’ or ‘very little, if any’ implementation. Poor diet causes ~18% of DALYs lost annually - why is this not a priority? @_INFORMAS @DavidClarkNZ

Our #FoodSystemsDialogues are interdisciplinary involving leading thinkers from government, industry, NGOs, academia, #farmers, food and agriculture sector to work together on complex challenges, trade-offs, examining opportunities, risks and principles: https://t.co/EBeIAZIoIj
