Tackling obesity in the UK
Tackling obesity in the UK☜With concern growing that the Foresight analysis—that 50% of the UK population could be obese by 2050, at an annual cost to the nation of around £50 billion per year [2]—substantially underestimates the scale of the unfolding obesity crisis, the College of Contemporary Health is working with the wider policy community to develop a whole systems map of the obesity crisis and the potential responses.☜F1CEB7

Tackling obesity
Tackling obesity☜Many policy interventions have been suggested to address the obesity crisis across multiple studies—and indeed many such measures have been implemented, and are being implemented, now. Theres recognition too that these interventions need to be part of a coherent and comprehensive whole systems strategy [4]; with some grounds for optimism that such an approach has the potential to accomplish a significant reduction in the prevalence of obesity in the UK across the next decade.

Adopt a whole systems approach to obesity
Adopt a whole systems approach to obesity☜Tackling obesity effectively—accomplishing a population wide-shift—requires a comprehensive and integrated whole systems approach, involving a range of measures focusing on individuals, social and other systems, including at the local and community level, and on the interrelated physical, physiological, social and cognitive factors that determine health outcomes.☜5CA4D9

Involve all stakeholders in the process of change☜Reversing the rising trend and addressing the prospect of the rising health burden and societal costs will be demanding and will necessitate major changes in behaviour – not only in individuals, but also in families, communities, organisations and economic markets.☜5CA4D9

Need to appreciate and incorporate multiple perspectives »
Need to appreciate and incorporate multiple perspectives
Need to appreciate and incorporate multiple perspectives☜A second dimension of complexity requires an appreciation of the different perspectives used by agents and agencies within the system (pluralism). Most of the population, including many experts and scientists, are not able to dis-identify from their own perspective sufficiently to be able to appreciate other peoples perspectives fully. Until all the key perspectives are incorporated into a study then any analysis will be partial and any intervention likely to fail. [1]☜FFFACD

Relational complexity of problems makes them hard to grasp as a whole »
Relational complexity of problems makes them hard to grasp as a whole
Relational complexity of problems makes them hard to grasp as a whole☜Obesity is a complex, systemic issue with no single or simple solution. Within complex systems it is normal for there to exist a complex network of causes that frequently feeds back on itself. The systems that have been modelled mathematically indicate that the overall behaviour of the system is determined by the structure of these interactions (in particular feedback loops and delays) rather than the values of any particular variables or parameters.
