  10. …tosupport policy makers and practitioners involved in tackling obesity and related issues

  11. Positioning • Public Health Observatory • Part of APHO • Based alongside SEPHO • NHS organisation • Academic links

  12. Healthy Weight, Healthy Lives(Jan 2008) National Obesity Observatory commissioned to support the strategy in six key areas

  13. Six key areas • Data and evidence • Surveillance • Data analysis • Evaluation guidance • International links • Support Expert Panel

  14. Authoritative source of data and evidence on obesity, overweight and their determinants • Compare IOTF, WHO, UK 90 approaches:options paper and consensus workshop • Map data, evidence, policy • Consult on user needs (and meet them!)

  15. Co-ordinate surveillance onobesity and overweight • Advise onNational Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) • Advise on other surveillance activities

  16. Analyse surveillance and indicator data • Detailed report on the NCMP 2007/08(complementing IC report) • Wide range of other analyses and analytical tools in due course

  17. Provide guidance on assessing and evaluating pilots and demonstration sites in England • Develop standard evaluation criteria and guidance

  18. International best practice and links with key international and other supranational bodies • Participate in UK, EU and international networks on obesity and related issues • PREVOB • HOPE • ALPHA • HEPA Europe • WHO/CDC/IOTF etc • Being here!

  19. Provide technical support to the Expert Panel • Technical papers, guidance, etc

  20. Not forgetting… • Links to research agenda • Support to other national strategies • Develop Foresight systems map • Academic links

  27. Will Lehman Brothers have a posthumous impact on obesity? If so, what? How would we know? What could wedo about it?

  28. NCMP • Records height, weight, age, sex, ethnicity, postcode • Reception and year 6 • Approx 1 million children / year

  29. Deprivation (IMD 2007) and child obesity (NCMP 2006/07) based on postcode of school (100% completeness)

  30. Child obesity prevalence and average height for children aged 10-11 years by ethnic group (NCMP 2006/07)

  31. Future possibilities • Detailed socio-economic analyses • Ethnicity and height • GIS analyses • Ecological analyses • Pseudonymised linkage • Longitudinal follow-up

  32. Establishing common standards • Co-ordinating routine data • Common standards across sectors and government departments • Standard evaluation criteria

  33. Learning from interventions • Cycling Cities and Towns - £100 million • Healthy Towns - £60 million • Connect2 - £100 million

  34. Knowledge from experience

  35. What we cannot speak of we must pass over in silence Ludwig WittgensteinTractatus Logico-Philosophicus

  36. Evidence trajectories Speculation Evidence-based interventions Number of interventions Time

  37. Prevalence and incidence of evidence Incidence Number of studies Prevalence Time

  38. Knowledge into action

  39. Conclusions • Use Foresight map as a template • Consult on priorities • Don’t reinvent the wheel (or buy spares) • Understand this stuff • Interpret and translate this stuff • Disseminate this stuff • Evaluate our effectiveness • Improve…
