Social and Behavioural Change Communications for Prevention of Childhood Overweight and Obesity

A Toolkit for Country Teams

About

The toolkit is designed for UNICEF staff and partners who are developing Social Behaviour Change Communications (SBCC) for the prevention of overweight and obesity in children. The objectives of the toolkit are:

1. To provide a brief introduction to the prevention of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents;

2. To introduce SBCC (the strategic use of communications to bring about positive social and behaviour change) and outline how it has been used as one tool to prevent overweight and obesity in children;

3. To provide a practical, step-by-step methodology for UNICEF staff and partners for designing, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating SBCC initiatives to prevent overweight and obesity in children.
