备用描述
Seeman and Luciani (health system innovation, Massey College, U. of Toronto, Canada) propose an alternative policy, the "healthy living voucher," to the current shame-based policies that have so far failed to decrease obesity and its related health problems. Rather than a one-size-fits-all policy, they propose an approach that allows people to choose from options and find one that works for them. They outline the social and physical costs of obesity in North America and around the world; its causes; problems with the current approach to combating obesity; the most popular policy approaches; and how theirs draws on school voucher ideas to address the problem.
