Rischio nazionale di obesità *7,5/10This is a composite ‘obesity risk’ score (out of 10, the highest risk) based on obesity prevalence, rate of increase, likelihood of meeting the 2025 target, treatment indicator and childhood stunting levels.Rischio di obesità infantile *7,5/11This is a ‘risk score’ for each country’s likelihood of having or acquiring a major childhood obesity problem during the 2020s, taking account of current prevalence levels and risk for future obesity (based on stunting among infants, maternal obesity, maternal smoking, and breastfeeding rates).
*Sulla base di dati stimati. Per maggiori informazioni consultare le Pubblicazioni

Tipping the scales: Australian obesity prevention consensus

Over the past two years the Obesity Policy Coalition and The Global Obesity Centre, Deakin University, have convened an expert advisory group of public health professionals representing a range of organisations. Through this process we have developed the agreed key components of a national obesity prevention strategy for Australia. Further, these priority actions have been endorsed by a range of academic, public health, consumer and other groups. This consensus delivers a rigorous and evidence-based agenda to our Federal Government and establishes the key elements to include in a national strategy as well as the basis for an ongoing dialogue about the best ways to address the obesity epidemic.

Shape Up Australia

An initiative to help Australians reduce their waist measurements and improve their overall health and wellbeing. 'Shape Up Australia' was a national obesity-prevention and healthy lifestyle campaign, funded through the National partnership agreement on preventive health, and launched in February 2013. It was administered by the Australian National Preventive Health Agency (ANPHA), whose essential functions have since been transferred to the Department of Health. Shape Up Australia followed on from previous ANPHA campaigns, including 'Swap It, Don't Stop It' and 'Measure Up'. Organisations who partnered with the initiative were able to use the 'Shape Up Australia' brand to promote their services, resources and programs to consumers.

National Cycling Strategy

This strategy is the next step in helping more people to realise those benefits. Building on the National Cycling Strategy 2005 - 2010, it identifies a series of actions to help more people get on their bikes, and start riding for a better life. This strategy sets out a series of actions that will help to deliver its overarching vision which is to double the number of people cycling in Australia over the next five years. This will require the commitment and support of governments and non-government organisations across the country. The Australian Bicycle Council (ABC) is the national body that manages and coordinates implementation of The Australian National Cycling Strategy (NCS). Over recent years, Australia has seen a significant growth in bicycle ownership and use. Australians are becoming increasingly aware of the convenience, enjoyment and widespread health and environmental benefits of cycling, and, as a result, initiatives to promote and increase this activity have been incorporated into many government agency programs within the portfolios of Health, Road and Transport, Education, Environment, Tourism, Sport and Local Government. The NCS has been developed as a coordinating framework identifying responsibilities that lie with the various governments at all levels, as well as community and industry stakeholders, to encourage and facilitate increased cycling in Australia. It sets out actions, with targets, timeframes and resources that will ensure the continued growth of this important component of Australia’s transport system.

Children's television standards

The Children’s Television Standards 2009 (CTS), applying to free-to-air television, is the only government regulation dealing specifically with advertising to children. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) developed the CTS under the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 (Cth). Compliance with the CTS is a licence condition for all free-to-air television broadcasters and ACMA is responsible for its administration and enforcement. CTS 32(7) is the only provision that deals specifically with food advertising. It prohibits advertisements that contain any misleading or incorrect information about the nutritional value of foods or beverages – a prohibition which is very limited in scope. Aside from the limited scope of its provisions, the main problem with the CTS is that it does not restrict the volume of unhealthy food advertising to children on TV and therefore does not reduce the amount of unhealthy food advertising that children are exposed to. Another significant limitation is that the CTS only apply to designated children’s viewing times and programs, and not to general audience programs watched by large numbers of children.

Mandatory nutrition standards at state level

There are no national mandatory standards in Australia (see below for details of national voluntary guidelines). However, six states and territories have implemented mandatory standards, which are either based on the national voluntary guidelines or nutrient and food criteria defined by the state: Australian Capital Territory (2015), New South Wales (2011), Northern Territory (2009), Queensland (2007), South Australia (2008), and Western Australia (2014). All of these states and territories identify "red category" food, which is either completely banned in schools or heavily restricted (eg offered no more than one or two times per term).
