A partnership approach linking two randomised controlled trials for optimising early obesity prevention programs for children under 3 years [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Brief description Although it is increasingly argued that childhood obesity prevention should begin in the early years, evidence of effective, cost-effective and sustainable interventions is scarce. This proposal will link the existing 3-arm intervention trial with over 1000 participants to a new randomised controlled trial to address the knowledge gaps in obesity prevention for children aged 2 to 3 years using telephone support and short message service.
