The Weight Coalition’s mandate is to obtain the required support to make demands for changing legislation, regulations, and public policy in order to encourage the development of environments favourable to healthy choices and that contribute to preventing weight-related issues.
Since its creation in 2006, the Weight Coalition has become a well established advocate supported by many partners from various spheres, such as the school, health, research, environment, nutrition, and physical activity areas.
The Weight Coalition is a project of the Quebec Public Health Association since 2008.
