World Obesity Day 2022: Impact report

The World Obesity Federation are very pleased to release the Impact Report for World Obesity Day 2022.

On 4 March 2022, the global obesity community came together to mark the third unified World Obesity Day with a simple message that ‘Everybody Needs to Act’ to address obesity and its causes.

Thanks to the support of partners, the day was a great success, reaching more than 10 million people around the world and cementing World Obesity Day as an important date in the global health calendar.

The report reviews this year’s campaign development process and outcomes, as well as celebrating WOD successes around the world and reflecting on what we can do better next time.

Read the report here.

Work on World Obesity Day 2023 has already begun.

This summer, The World Obesity Federation are reviewing our approach and available resources, and holding a series of focus groups with World Obesity members and key WOD audiences.
