WHO/Europe works with Member States to develop and improve government-approved policies dealing with nutrition and food safety. Policy developments indicate that these topics span different government sectors and involve both public and private actors.
The burden of disease associated with poor nutrition continues to grow in the WHO European Region, particularly as a result of the obesity epidemic, while foodborne diseases still represent a challenge to European health systems.
