Nestle For Healthier Kids Team

I am united because children are our greatest treasure; they are our future.
I am united because we have a responsibility to ensure we give all children the healthiest possible start in life to fulfil their potential.
I am united because physical fitness is not only the condition to a healthy body, it is also the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.
I am united because a healthy body and a healthy mind lead to a fulfilling life

As a business leader, active sports person and type 1 diabetic I have a very busy lifestyle where exercise has to be scheduled in to my daily routine.
I'm United because, as parents, my wife and I ensure that the entire family balances technology with activity and snacks with a balanced and healthy diet.

“As a grandfather, I know how important it is to instill healthy eating habits in kids from an early stage. Having healthy food available is a critical first step. But teaching children to eat this type of food and like it is another challenge. I’m thankful for all the partners who have joint hands to launch Nestlé for Healthier Kids, a pioneering initiative focused on helping parents establish healthier habits for their kids. Memac Ogilvy is proud to unite as a partner for this cause and provide creative solutions for the health and wellness of the next generation.”

Obese children have a high risk of becoming obese adults, and this has been strongly backed by science and research. More importantly, eating habits are not innate but rather a learned behaviour. I have always been fascinated by the compelling role of nutrition on human health and well-being. Throughout my career as an obesity expert, I have come to realise that it is much easier to build healthy children than to repair unhealthy and ailed adults. I am united because an evidence-based intervention like N4HK provides the foundation for establishing life-long healthy eating habits among our children and a powerful incentive to prevent chronic diseases that would ail our societies

As part of Dubai Healthy Children 2021, our aim at Dubai Health Authority is to help our children lead healthier and happier lifestyle. Through our partnership with the Nestlé for Healthier Kids movement to encourage healthier habits for our children, we are proud to reach and inspire children and families in the Region. We look forward to further amplifying with the United for Healthier Kids movement, and contribute a brighter future for the next generation.

The focus on healthy behaviour is more important for today's digital generations than ever before. With children most vulnerable to the threats of a sedate lifestyle, initiatives like 'Nestlé for Healthier Kids' are crucially important. In the 2016 UAE Year of Reading, what better way to spread the message than through books? By partnering with N4HK's Tummyfish publication initiative in particular, Motivate fully extends its support to this important cause.

‘Nestlé 4 Healthier Kids’ is a unique initiative that has been created using science and research to help tackle some of the biggest challenges facing children in the Middle East, and really make a difference. Society has a role to play in ensuring that our children grow up with a healthy attitude towards food and exercise. We are proud to be a part of this important movement,” said Sunil John, CEO of ASDA’A Burson-Marsteller in the Middle East.

The youth are the next generation and leaders of tomorrow. Healthy minds and active bodies are leadership enablers especially when coupled with the right set of skills, knowledge and education. MBC Al Amal is about Hope for a better and brighter future… and that starts with adopting a healthier and active lifestyle
