WCRD 2008

Junk Food Generation: year one

The theme for WCRD 2008 was Junk Food Generation: The Consumers International (CI) campaign to stop the marketing of unhealthy food to children.

CI kicked off its campaign to push the World Health Organization (WHO) for an international code to ban the marketing of unhealthy food to children.

Around the world CI member organisations united in an international day of action to highlight the damage done by junk food marketing and to urge government ministers to support the Code ahead of the World Health Assembly (WHA) in May 2008.
