Abstract

Childhood obesity increases the risk of obesity in adulthood and is associated with cardiovascular disease risk factors. The prevalence of overweight and obesity is increasing in China. It is necessary to develop an intervention project for preschool children. Based on a service design project, this paper discusses how to take advantage of the digital platform to provide the preschool children with the health intervention in need, aiming at influencing their behaviors through their values and attitudes. It also proposes an innovative model to involve new stakeholders into the whole system and to improve the viability of the project.
