Conducted across 37 participating countries with standardized methods, this round collected data from approximately 470,000 children aged 6–9. The results highlight the persistent and significant public health threat posed by childhood obesity. The session will emphasize translating "data to action," focusing on Member States’ challenges and successes in implementing policies to monitor, prevent, and control overweight and obesity. A special focus will be placed on exploring the links between socioeconomic inequalities, obesity, and related factors.engChildhood ObesityChildhood Obesity SurveillanceCOSIEuropePortugalEstilos de Vida e Impacto na Saúdeconference object
