Childhood obesity condition has increased 10 times in the last 40 years, representing one of the most important public health challenges of our century.
The overweight and obesity in children are conditions associated with several determinants, mostly related to dietary habits, physical activity, and environmental behavior.
To counteract childhood obesity, several prevention programs have been promoted, however evidence concerning their efficacy was contrasting, especially among the younger population and in the long term.
Moreover, due to the wide variety of interventions administered it is not clear which specific strategy (or combinations of strategies) was the most effective.
The LIVELY study aims 1) to assess the prevalence and the factors associated to childhood overweight and obesity; 2) to develop multidimensional strategies for prevention of childhood obesity by involving families and recognizing the role of schools as an environment for raising awareness on healthy and sustainable dietary patterns and lifestyle.
LIVELY is a study with a one group pre-test - post-test design (without control). The study will be conducted in the primary schools of the Istituto Luigi Cadorna in Milano (Lombardy Region, Northern Italy). The study population will involve children (6-11 years) belonging to different socioeconomic status and ethnic groups, attending classes of the school whose teachers will accept to participate.
The educational interventions will consist in:

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Investigate prevalence of childhood overweight and/or obesity | Weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m^2 | Baseline |
| Investigation on adherence to Mediterranian diet | Mediterranean Diet Quality Index for children and adolescents (KIDMED) will be used. The index ranges from 0 to 12 and is based on 16 questions. The sums of the values from the test are classified into three levels: scores ≥8 are considered optimal, 4-7 as average Mediterranean Diet adherence, and ≤3 as very low diet quality. | Baseline |
| Assessment of the consumption of ultra-processed food by children | NOVA classification, which will classify ultra-processed foods in four groups according to their level of processing (Group 1: unprocessed foods - Group 4: ultra-processed foods) | Baseline |
| Investigation of family lifestyles | Children Feeding Questionnaire (CFQ) will be used. It measures parental feeding practices and attitudes. The CFQ contains originally 31 items and measures the following seven factors: Perceived Responsibility (three items), Parent Perceived Weight (four items), Perceived Child Weight (six items), Parents Concern about Child Weight (three items), Parents' feeding practices: Restriction (eight items), Pressure to Eat (four items), and Monitoring (three items). The responses to all items are coded on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from one to five. | Baseline |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Feasibility of multidimensional school-based educational interventions | Perception of usefulness of the interventions: appreciation questionnaires to investigate the satisfaction of the implemented activities; organization of the interventions and usefulness of the educational interventions | 6 months |
| Investigation of changes in adherence to Mediterranian diet |
