Wallage concluded by outlining two potential legal avenues for legislation in children's food environments by banning unhealtht food marketing for children: a right-based approach centered on human rights principles, ensuring adequate access to nutritious food environments for children, and a risk-based approach, which evaluates potential harm against economic considerations to minimize risks and maximize benefits.
