dc.description.abstractThe Bellagio Conference (2013) discussed the experiences in controlling obesity in countries across the globe with a primary focus on low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The underlying goal was to understand the problems in developing large-scale preventive policies and regulations to address the increases in global obesity and related non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The article outlines programs and policies that need strengthening from supporting research. Evaluation research is critical for designing new policies to address obesity and to improve the effectiveness of existing ones.en
