“…This national initiative quickly influenced governmental policies, practices, and research orientations 12 , inspiring 15 countries to embrace this Report Card process in a coordinated way in 2014, leading to the creation of the international Global Matrix 1.0 13 . Gaining in interest and popularity, 38 countries took part in the Global Matrix 2.0 in 2016 14 , wherein France presented its first Report Card under the umbrella of the French National Observatory for Physical Activity and Sedentary Behaviors (ONAPS) 15 . As part of the Global Matrix 3.0 (involving 49 countries from 6 continents), the ONAPS proposed a 2018 updated version of the 2016 French report card, confirming very concerning levels of physical activity and sedentary behaviors among French children and youth 16,17 .…”

Background: There is an alarming and constant worldwide progression of physical inactivity and sedentary behaviors in children and adolescents. The present paper summarizes findings from France’s 2020 Report Card on physical activity for children and youth, comparing its results to its 2 previous editions (2016 and 2018). Methods: France’s 2020 Report Card follows the standardized methodology established by the Active Healthy Kids Global Matrix, grading 10 common physical activity indicators using the best available evidence. The grades were informed by national surveys, peer-reviewed literature, government and nongovernment reports, and online information. Results: The expert panel awarded the following grades: Overall Physical Activity: D; Organized Sport Participation and Physical Activity: C−; Active Play: INC; Active Transportation: C−; Sedentary Behaviors: D−; Family and Peers: D−; Physical Fitness: D; School: B−; Community and the Built Environment: F; Government: C. Conclusions: This 2020 edition of France’s Report Card again highlights the alarming levels of physical activity and sedentary behaviors among French children and adolescents, calling for the development of effective national action. It also draws attention to the particular deleterious effects of the COVID-19 confinement on youth’s movement behaviors, which significantly worsened the situation.

Childhood obesity, affecting 29% of 7–9-year-olds across 33 European countries, is a significant public health challenge. Its persistence into adulthood poses grave health risks influenced by genetic, environmental, and socio-economic factors. Belgium introduced a new care pathway in December 2023, based on the Edmonton Obesity Staging System for Pediatrics (EOSS-P), addressing four health domains and staging obesity severity. This pathway operates across three levels: primary care physicians, Paediatric Multidisciplinary Obesity Management Centres (PMOCs), and Centers of Expertise for Paediatric Obesity Management (CEPOs). Each stage of EOSS-P demands tailored interventions. Early stages involve dietary interventions, physical activity promotion, and behavior modifications. As obesity severity progresses, treatments intensify, encompassing psychological support, anti-obesity medications, and, in some cases, bariatric surgery. Throughout these stages, the involvement of multidisciplinary teams is crucial, emphasizing family-based approaches and continuous monitoring. This article provides detailed guidelines for healthcare professionals, delineating interventions and recommendations tailored to each EOSS-P stage. It emphasizes a holistic approach that extends beyond BMI-based diagnosis, promoting personalized care and prompt escalations between care levels, thereby ensuring optimal management of childhood obesity. This comprehensive framework aims to address the complexities of childhood obesity, emphasizing the importance of timely and targeted interventions for better health outcomes.
