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…
Teacher perspectives on the socio-ecological barriers and enablers to food and nutrition education in primary schools
Objective: Schools are identified as a setting for food and nutrition education (FNE) in childhood. FNE is a key strategy to optimise child growth and development and impart life-long food skills. There is limited synthesis of the literature to understand the socio-ecological determinants of teachers and schools engaging in FNE. Design: For this scoping review, five databases (APA PsycInfo, ERIC, Medline, CINAHL and Scopus) were searched using th…
Australian State and Territory Eclectic Approaches to Obesity Prevention in the Early Years
Background: The international increase in the prevalence of childhood obesity has hastened in recent decades. This rise has coincided with the emergence of comorbidities in childhood-such as type II diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, metabolic syndrome, sleep apnoea and hypertension-formerly only described in adulthood. This phenomenon suggests global social and economic trends are impacting on health supportive environments. Obesity pr…
An Overview of Research Opportunities to Increase the Impact of Nutrition Intervention Research in Early Childhood and Education Care Settings According to the RE-AIM Framework
Objective: To highlight opportunities for future nutrition intervention research within early childhood and education care (ECEC) settings, with a focus on generating evidence that has applicability to real-world policy and practice. Methods: An overview of opportunities to progress the field was developed by the authors using a collaborative writing approach and informed by recent research in the field. The group developed a list of recommendati…
Enrolment of families with overweight children into a program aimed at reducing childhood obesity with and without a weight criterion

A narrative account of implementation lessons learnt from the dissemination of an up-scaled state-wide child obesity management program in Australia

Parent engagement and attendance in PEACHTM QLD – an up-scaled parent-led childhood obesity program
To promote reach and effectiveness of up-scaled programs, it is important to identify ways to engage less advantaged families who carry higher child obesity risk. Understanding differences in referral source and parent readiness for change may assist in tailoring program content. The influence of program-level factors (e.g. facilitator and setting characteristics) should be investigated as possible alternative mediators to program engagement
