What is World Obesity Day?

World Obesity Day, observed on March 4 since 2020 and organized by the World Obesity Federation since 2015, reframes obesity as a chronic, multifactorial disease and calls for compassionate, evidence-based action across healthcare, food systems, and urban design. The day highlights that more than a billion people live with obesity today, including 160 million children, and promotes community-level prevention rather than weight stigma.
