8 Billion Reasons to Act: World Obesity Day 2026
Organised by Singapore Association for the Study of Obesity (SASO)
Obesity is no longer a niche health concern - it is a global reality. By 2035, it is projected that 4 billion people (half the world’s population) will be living with overweight or obesity.
With a global population of 8 billion, this means every single one of us - whether as a person living with obesity, a family member, or a healthcare provider - has a reason to act.
Join SASO at Our Tampines Hub as we move from awareness to action.
