Funded Activity Summary

The rising costs of poor nutrition to society are well documented, as are cost effective solutions to these issues. Despite this, very little federal money gets directed to public health nutrition. One way to change this imbalance is through advocacy work. This study will explore the private sector and its effective use of advocacy in influencing public health policy in Australia. Key elements that can be utilised by those with limited resources to influence policy change will be determined.
