The September 2020 workshop explored various systems science approaches (i.e., methodologies and tools) and support structures that could guide future obesity research and action, and featured examples of how these approaches can inform decision making within policy and program areas.1 Workshop speakers discussed the support structures (e.g., data sources, modeling expertise, training, and partnerships and collaborations)

the structures needed to support the use of these approaches for researchers and policy and programmatic decision makers across society. Workshop presentations will provide examples of systems applications (e.g., participatory modeling, group model building, system dynamics, social network analysis, network science, cost effectiveness, and agent-based modeling)

This process has included a group model-building exercise with roundtable members, he elaborated, and featured the prior workshop mentioned above, which emphasized the importance of applying multisector systems perspectives when implementing obesity solutions. Pronk clarified that the goal of the workshop documented in this proceedings was to encourage and engage diverse stakeholders to use systems science approaches by highlighting the real-world application of these approaches to inform decisions related to obesity solutions.
