International Food Addiction Children’s Conference

This year, IFACC proudly features UNICEF’s Fix My Food youth initiative, amplifying the leadership of young people who are already driving change in their schools, communities, and countries. By placing children’s lived experience at the heart of the programme, IFACC 2026 highlights the power of youth advocacy and the importance of prevention‑focused approaches to food environments.

Across three dynamic sessions, the conference will spotlight:

Youth leadership and the lived experiences of children navigating today’s food environments

Emerging science on UPF addiction and why prevention must start early

Global perspectives on food systems and their impact on children’s health

Practical actions for families, schools, healthcare professionals, and policymakers

Speakers include UNICEF leaders, youth ambassadors, scientific experts, clinicians, academics, public health communicators, and campaigners from across the international movement for healthier food systems.
