NATIONAL COLLABORATIVE ON CHILDHOOD OBESITY RESEARCH (NCCOR) COORDINATING CENTER

当NCCOR于2009年成立时，美国的儿童肥胖率已经稳步上升了几十年。这一趋势使人们更加关注预防肥胖的研究需求，并制定公共和私营部门促进健康饮食和体育活动的举措。美国最大的四个儿童肥胖研究资助机构——美国农业部、美国疾病控制和预防中心、美国国立卫生研究院和罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊基金会——认识到他们在减少儿童肥胖方面的共同利益，并成立了NCCOR。自启动以来，富力360一直在管理NCCOR协调中心，重点关注跨机构的战略和合作，以提高研究的有效性和应用，以改善儿童肥胖问题。FHI 360在确定集体行动和研究机会、建立知识库以寻找解决办法和管理传播资源和证据的宣传工作等领域为合作提供关键支持。

When NCCOR was formed in 2009, childhood obesity rates had been rising steadily in the United States for several decades. This trend led to an increased focus on the need for research to prevent obesity and develop public- and private-sector initiatives promoting healthy eating and physical activity. Four of the nation’s largest childhood obesity research funders – the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. National Institutes of Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation – recognized their common interest in reducing childhood obesity and formed NCCOR. Since the launch, FHI 360 has managed the NCCOR Coordinating Center, focusing on strategy and collaboration across agencies to improve the effectiveness and application of research to improve childhood obesity. FHI 360 provides critical support to the collaborative in areas such as identifying opportunities for collective action and research, building the knowledge base to find solutions and managing communications efforts to disseminate resources and evidence.
