The marketing of commercial foods for infants and toddlers in Australian supermarket catalogues
Commercial foods for infants and young children are prominent on supermarket shelves in Australia, with parents commonly believing they are a healthy choice, yet evidence shows many commercial foods are nutrient-poor. The aim of this study was to examine the nature and extent of promotions for commercial infant and toddler foods in Australian supermarket catalogues. Digital catalogues from four leading Australian supermarket chains were collected…
Advancing multi-use in offshore wind energy planning
Offshore wind energy development has been accelerating at a rapid pace around the world to address renewable energy goals. As a new use of ocean space, offshore wind developments can create spatial and temporal conflicts with existing ocean uses. The concept of multi-use, which spans from promoting co-existence of uses to identifying synergies between uses, has become an important framework for marine spatial planning and offshore renewable energ…
Driving Research and Advocacy for Healthy Infant and Toddler Diets
Early childhood (0-36 months) is a critical time for the development of healthy dietary behaviours. This paper describes the establishment of the Infant and Toddler Foods Research Alliance in Australia and New Zealand, along with the development of the Alliance's priorities to guide research and advocacy activities for improved nutrition, health and well-being outcomes in early childhood. The multi-disciplinary Alliance includes a membership of a…
Parents' Perceptions of Claims on Packaged Commercial Toddler Foods
Commercial toddler foods (CTFs) are widely used. Many are nutritionally poor despite displaying health, nutrition or marketing claims implying healthiness. This study aimed to: (i) explore how claims on CTFs influence parents' product perceptions and preferences, and gauge support for regulatory reform to ensure CTFs are marketed responsibly; (ii) identify other factors influencing parent's and toddlers' perceptions and preferences towards CTFs a…
Visual communication design
Packaging design is a communication device and a critical component in branding strategy, and has relevance for food policy. Presently, packaging-related nutrition policy initiatives focus on the role of regulated claims, nutrition information panels and front-of-pack nutrition labels to help guide consumer food choices and address high prevalences of discretionary and ultra-processed food consumption in many countries. However, these nutrition l…
The big squeeze
Squeeze pouch products available in Australia are nutritionally poor, high in sugars, not fortified with iron, and there is a clear risk of harm tothe health of infant and young children if these products are fed regularly. The marketing messages and labelling on squeeze pouches are misleading and do not support WHO or Australian NHMRC recommendations for breastfeeding or appropriate introduction of complementary foods and labelling of products. …

Gatekeeping and Communities in Energy Transition
The Block Island Wind Farm (BIWF) is the first offshore wind farm in the United States. Using gatekeeping theory as a framework, this research analyzes local and regional/national newspaper coverage of the BIWF paying particular attention to the use of sources. The data suggest that the differences between newspaper source usage from 1 January 2008 to 1 July 2017 is minimal. However, business sources appeared more than any other group, including …
Mothers’ and father’s perceptions of the risks and benefits of screen time and physical activity during early childhood
This study identified that some parental perceptions of benefits and risks of screen time and active play were consistent with published evidence, while others were contradicted by current evidence. Future studies should consider evidence-based education to ensure parents are aware of evidence-based outcomes of children's behaviours. Interventions may wish to capitalise on parents perceived benefits to enhance engagement
