As part of this year’s Canadian Obesity Summit, EPODE Canada presents its first Canadian Regional Forum. This workshop is designed for program managers, local community coordinators or program advisors of childhood obesity prevention programs, and to share knowledge and practical advice between EPODE and Canadian programs. Senior members of the EPODE global team including program managers from programs in Belgium and the Netherlands will share their practical experience on program design, social marketing actions, private public partnerships and program evaluation. Canadian program managers will report on their experience and learnings and discuss barriers and levers to working in the Canadian context. A special workshop on program evaluation will discuss practical approaches to evaluating process and outcomes. A special luncheon presentation on kids and nutrition will be given. By attending this landmark event you will find ideas that can help you improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your childhood obesity prevention program. The EPODE International Network (EIN) is the world’s largest network of community-based childhood prevention programs. The EIN was created to promote the adoption of the EPODE methodology for the prevention of childhood obesity. The EPODE methodology has been proven effective at reducing the prevalence of childhood obesity via community based programs designed to promote social norms for healthy active living. EPODE Canada is a regional initiative of the EIN to provide knowledge transfer between Canadian programs and EPODE inspired programs worldwide.

Child obesity is a global epidemic that is rooted in complex and multi-factorial interactions. Once established, obesity is difficult to reverse. Studies in both animals and humans, including epidemiologic, clinical, and experimental data, have provided strong evidence implicating the intrauterine environment in downstream obesity. In recent years, significant advancements have been made regarding underlying molecular pathways and population level interventions and their effects on fetal programming of obesity. The proposed workshop will provide an update on the topic and focus on the interplay between obesity, gestational weight gain (GWG), lifestyle behaviours, and early life factors (parenting) that exacerbate fetal/child growth and perpetuate the intergenerational obesity cycle. Pregnancy, early postpartum, and infancy are crucial times of growth, development and physiologic change in mother and child. This workshop will address physiologic alterations in the fetus mediated through adaptations to in utero environmental stimuli. Epigenetic and clinical evidence will be presented that demonstrates how perturbations during pregnancy affect fetal/ infant phenotype and how early postpartum health (of mom and baby) predicts chronic disease risk later in life. The latest evidence from pregnancy and postpartum-related intervention trials will be presented to identify avenues for clinical management and future research.
