title: The WHO strategy and community nutrition in the UK.
abstract: The World Health Organisation (WHO), in its global and European strategies for health for all, has provided an excellent framework for the promotion of community nutrition. Sadly, the UK government has not responded adequately in terms of health-promoting public policy. However, regional and local initiatives in the public sector give much cause for hope. Major areas for action include the creation of political commitment and the development of a new social epidemiology of food and nutrition.
