Mission
Making it easier to eat well and to be more active!
The Weight Coalition’s mandate is to obtain the required support to make demands for changing legislation, regulations, and public policy in three strategic areas (Agri-Food Industry, Sociocultural, Built Environment) in order to encourage the development of environments that help in making healthy choices and will contribute to preventing weight-related issues.
Since its creation in 2006, the Weight Coalition has become a well established advocate supported by over 220 partners from various spheres, such as the municipal, school, health, research, environment, nutrition, and physical activity areas.
You can also endorse the Weight Coalition and as such contribute to promoting health and enabling environments favourable to healthy lifestyles.
The Weight Coalition has been sponsored by the Association pour la santé publique du Québec since 2008.
