Satellite ID: SA17
Satellite Organizer: George Washington University

Date: March 7th, 2024

Time: 1:00pm - 4:00pm

Join us for an insightful satellite session delving into the Commercial Determinants of Health (CDoH) and their impact on global health, with a focus on non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Led by Dr. Adnan Hyder and featuring expert presentations, the session will explore the influence of corporate practices on health, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Through interactive discussions and case studies, attendees will gain valuable insights into research needed on the tactics employed by industries, such as advertising, marketing, and pricing, and how they affect consumption patterns. The session aims to contribute to a better understanding of CDoH using real examples from LMIC settings and provide recommendations to address these challenges.
