Food industry influence in collaborative governance: The case of the Dutch prevention agreement on overweight

Author

Listed:
  • Lelieveldt, Herman

Abstract

Food policies to foster a healthy lifestyle are to an increasing extent developed through processes of collaborative governance in which public and private stakeholders negotiate voluntary agreements (VAs). The effectiveness of these VAs has been questioned repeatedly, because of the involvement of the food industry in drawing up these agreements.
