HEALA focuses its campaign work on two campaigns the Sugar Tax and Front-of-Package Warning Labels. We also run smaller campaigns that aim to keep big food producers in check and create greater awareness of the importance of nutrition in health.

We have the power to protect children from hunger if we come together and demand the Minister of Finance to take action.
