Baillet Latour 2024
29 April 2024
Queen Mathilde attended the award ceremony of the Baillet Latour Biomedical Award 2024, at the Palais des académies in Brussels.
"En 1978 la Reine Fabiola remettait pour la première fois le Prix International de Médecine de votre Fonds en présence du fondateur, le comte Alfred de Baillet Latour.
Pendant de longues années Elle était fidèle au rendez-vous.
En 2000 Elle m’a demandé de remettre le Prix en son nom, geste répété depuis lors presque chaque année."

Conference on Food Labelling
25 April 2024
Queen Mathilde attended the scientific symposium "Experiences and perspectives on front-of-pack nutrition labelling systems" in Brussels.
"A recent worldwide study published in The Lancet estimates that 879 million adults and 159 million children and teenagers are now obese. That comes to 12% of the world’s population. If current trends continue, by 2035 one in two people will be overweight or obese.
The situation of children and young people is particularly worrying. According to the WHO-Europe’s latest study, 29% of children aged seven to nine are overweight or obese, with a higher prevalence among boys than girls."
They discussed specific labelling strategies to get consumers to make balanced food choices.
