Accelerating the Removal of Ultra-Processed Products in Caribbean Schools – The Food in Our Schools Matters
July 4-5, 2023
Courtyard Marriott Hotel | Bridgetown, Barbados
This meeting: Accelerating the removal of ultra-processed products from Caribbean schools represents a reconvening of face-to-face meetings of Healthy Caribbean Coalition (HCC) member organisations and partners. The aim of the meeting is to support harmonised regional acceleration of robust evidence-informed policies which regulate the availability and marketing of ultra-processed products in school settings, by bringing together diverse stakeholders, including those from government, civil society and academia. This meeting precedes a second meeting hosted by the HCC immediately following on July 6-7, 2023. The second meeting: Mobilising for 2025 – A Caribbean Civil Society NCD Forum aims to bring together HCC member civil society organisations (CSOs) and key stakeholders to discuss non-communicable disease (NCD) (including mental, neurological and substance use disorders – MNSDs)[1] prevention and control priorities.
