“…Sharing food with significant others slows eating and offer opportunities for enhancing food experiences, socialization and passing on family norms and traditions. Connections to traditional and culturally important foods have also been identified as important for cultural identity and preservation (D'Sylva & Beagan, 2011;Johnson et al, 2011;Moisio et al, 2004). This aspect of food literacy contributes greatly towards achievement of well-being through food choices and related decisions (McMahon, Williams, & Tapsell, 2010).…”

Objective: The modern foodscape has changed dramatically in recent decades in terms of where, what, how and with whom we eat. This has been facilitated by a transition from traditional, healthy and basic foods prepared in the home to ultraprocessed, unhealthy foods requiring little planning and preparation prior to consuming. Consequently, many youth lack the food literacy (knowledge, skills and critical perspectives) necessary to be well and minimize their risk of obesity and chronic diseases, in the context of a complex food system. The specific dimensions of these knowledge, skills and dispositions, however, are unknown. This study identified critical food literacy competencies required by youth as they transition to independent adulthood. Design: This study employed a Delphi methodology to achieve consensus statements on critical food literacy competencies within a framework encompassing cognitive, psychomotor and affective dimensions. Participants: A panel of 41 experts including dietitians, teachers and college/university students participated in in‐depth interviews. Analysis: Results were thematically analysed and incorporated into two subsequent surveys completed by panel members. Rater agreement was set at 75% agreeing/strongly agreeing with survey items. A panel subgroup further delineated results into competency statements. Results: Within the themes of “confidence and empowerment,” “joy and meaning” and “sustainable and equitable food systems,” 16 broad competency areas, and 59 specific competencies were identified. These were assembled into a Food Literacy Framework. Conclusion: Results can be used to support food and nutrition education in community settings as well as the formal school system, and to advocate for resources to support food literacy education programmes.

“…This strategy has been applied in a range of settings but less often in the context of women's health (see Wang 1999, Wang and Pies 2004, Hill 2008, Johnson et al 2011, or in an Australian context (see Wilkin and Liamputtong 2010). No studies have described the use of photovoice with pregnant women.…”

This article contributes to, and extends, feminist and visual sociological scholarship by examining how a sample of pregnant women in Australia documented their postpartum experiences through digital photographs. It is argued that photography is powerful in helping women to articulate the ways in which subjectivities and bodily boundaries are reframed in the postpartum period. Dressing is used as a key example to demonstrate this. A further aim of this paper is to identify whether women's photographs can be used to contest dominant cultural ideologies and how we may read these using feminist perspectives. Throughout this article, women's individual embodied experiences of postpregnancy are reflected in the production and viewing of their own photographic images.

“…Mães que tem uma alimentação adequada, também fazem uma escolha de alimentação mais adequada para seus filhos, mesmo em famílias de baixa renda. 19 Dados apontam que a mãe possui maior influência sobre o IMC dos filhos, quando comparado à influência que o pai exerce. Ainda, esta é determinante para o desenvolvimento da obesidade em crianças recém-nascidas e na infância tardia, apontando que o controle do excesso de peso em mulheres em idade reprodutiva é um fator influenciador benéfico para evitar a obesidade infantil.…”

Exceto onde especificado diferentemente, a matéria publicada neste periódico é licenciada sob forma de uma licença Creative Commons -Atribuição 4. Justificativa e Objetivos:O crescente aumento da obesidade em nível mundial aloca este problema como uma epidemia global, enfatizando a mesma como um problema de saúde pública. A obesidade também se coloca como uma doença infantil, exigindo dos profissionais da saúde, ações preventivas que atinjam todo o contexto em que crianças e adultos estejam inseridos. A partir desta temática, objetivou-se discutir a problemática da obesidade infantil e a sua relação com três agentes que influenciam o estilo de vida de escolares com sobrepeso e obesidade: mídia audiovisual, relações familiares e instituições acadêmicas. Conteúdo: Artigo de revisão de literatura onde foram consultados em sites de busca (Scielo e PubMed) artigos que tivessem no seu contexto no mínimo dois dos seguintes descritores: instituições acadêmicas, relações familiares, mídia audiovisual e obesidade infantil. Considerou-se como recorte temporal o período de 2009 a 2013. Conclusão: verificou-se a necessidade de políticas públicas que normatizem propagandas destinadas ao público infantil, adequando-as ao perfil educativo-preventivo. Além disso, constatou-se que a escola exerce papel fundamental na prática de hábitos alimentares saudáveis. Percebe-se, assim, a necessidade de adaptação a essa realidade, tendo a família o papel de mediar e controlar tais ações. Background and Objectives:The increasing worldwide incidence of obesity shows it is a global epidemic, emphasizing its status of public health problem. Obesity also represents a childhood disease, requiring health professionals to carry out preventive actions that include the entire context in which children and adults are considered. Based on this subject, we aimed to discuss the problem of childhood obesity and its association with three agents that influence the lifestyle of children with overweight and obesity: audiovisual media, family relations and academic institutions. Content: This was a literature review article, carried out at the search engines (SciELO and PubMed), seeking for articles that had in their context at least two of the following descriptors: academic institutions, family relations, audiovisual media and childhood obesity. The period considered was from 2009 to 2013. Conclusion: we verified the need for public policies that regulate advertising aimed at children, adapting them to the preventive/educational profile. Additionally, it was observed that the school plays a key role in the practice of healthy eating habits. It is clear, therefore, the need to adapt to this reality, with the family exercising the role of mediating and controlling such actions. RESUMO ABSTRACT ARTIGO DE REVISÃO
