<div class="m_8025222038720156703m_2847137884884824247WordSection1">We have just published the conflicts of interest resource I mentioned when we spoke last week. Is this something you could circulate to your COI networks? Any feedback you have will also be
 welcome.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%">The UK Health Forum has published a new Casebook which documents 12 experiences of public-private interactions to tackle diet-related non-communicable diseases from around the world.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%">The casebook<i>, “Public health and the food and drinks industry: The governance and ethics of interaction. Lessons from research, policy and practice”</i> is written by a mix of policy actors,
 academics, and NGOs. It includes examples from diverse countries such as Fiji, Brazil, Mexico, England, Canada and Spain. They focus on the particular challenges of interactions with corporate actors which manufacture unhealthy and ultra-processed food and
 drinks, and identify key lessons for public health actors. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt;line-height:115%">Next week the WHO Executive Board will discuss a new WHO tool to support countries to engage with the corporate sector on nutrition programmes. The casebook contributes to this global discussion
 by bringing to life some of the challenges associated with different types of public-private interactions.<u></u><u></u></p>
