WHO has recently released a new publication title Restricting Digital Marketing in the context of Tobacco, Alcohol, Food and Beverages, and Breast-Milk Substitutes: Existing Approaches and Policy Options. This technical product examines how restrictions on digital marketing are implemented by Member States as part of broader marketing restrictions, describes current challenges specific to digital marketing and provides policy options and approaches that Member States can adopt to strengthen the design and implementation of restrictions.
The WHO Public Health Law and Policies unit (LAW) is organizing a webinar series to launch this new publication. The webinars will describe the challenges posed by digital marketing and present policy options to legislate, monitor, and enforce restrictions.
