Our hypothesis is that a regular systematic educational intervention in primary school improves lifestyle choices and reduces obesity. As such, the aim of the study is to evaluate the effects of a 3-year school-based program of lifestyle improvement, including diet and physical activity, implemented by university students acting as "health promoting agents" (HPA) on the prevalence of obesity.
Initial pupil enrollment and continued for 3 years.
