Growth models
What kinds of economic models are needed for sustainable growth?

The paradox of globalization is that it can often worsen the differences,imbalances, and inequities that already exist in the world. By 2050, the planet will be populated by 9 billion people, forcing us to think differently about the global economy and consumption models.

These problems are leading many economists to reassess the concept of "growth".

Economic growth, globalization and cross-contamination between different cultural models are bringing about a change of lifestyles and eating habits on a worldwide level. One of many consequences this phenomenon has caused is an increase in overweight and obesity in the population, especially in children. This question is an urgent one and must be taken on using an integrated approach. Of central importance is the role of three players who must work together in synergy: the family, school and pediatricians.
