dc.description.abstractThe results and outputs of this project were used for advocacy and communication strategies to push forward the regulatory option of food nutrition labelling. Front-of-package (FOP) warning labelling is recommended as the most effective measure to understand nutritional information and to help consumers make more conscious and healthier food choices. The regulatory process of food labelling in Brazil and Argentina depends on harmonization as part of the Southern Common Market (MERCOSUR) trade agreements, which is considered an obstacle for in-country improvements. This research study provides evidence to promote effective mandatory FOP labelling systems in Brazil and Argentina.en
