Creating Supportive Food Environments in Saskatchewan

If you were unable to attend the recent webinar on Creating Supportive Food Environments in Saskatchewan Recreation and Sport Settings, a recording of the session is now available.

The webinar is presented by Melanie Warken, Public Health Nutritionist, Saskatchewan Health Authority, in the first of a three-part webinar series for Eat Healthy Play Healthy.

In this session, Melanie reviews what is happening in Saskatchewan and across Canada to create supportive food environments in sport and recreation settings. She also discusses the factors that make up a food environment and how they can be improved so the healthy choice is easier for customers, and thereby support the sales of healthy food and beverages.
