Marketing of unhealthy food to children must be curbed [1]

The Consumers International (CI) battle against marketing of unhealthy food to children has gathered support from domestic groups as well. The London-based CI is an independent consumer network with over 220 member organisations in 115 countries. Ahmedabad's Consumer Education and Research Centre (CERC) and Chennai's Consumers Association of India have joined CI's international research on the subject. Other than these, participating organisations are from the Philippines, Fiji, Malaysia and Korea.
