The 3 Fives Five Keys to Safer Food, Five Keys to a Healthy Diet, Five Keys to Appropriate Physical activity campaign -FIFA World Cup, South Africa

The World Health Organisation (WHO) 3 Fives concept is a unique product, initially tailor-made for major sporting events.

The particular combination of food safety, nutrition and physical activity has a special resonance in combination with athletes, but also has a general appeal.

Launched in China on the occasion of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the 3 Fives have now been adopted by the Department of Health of South Africa as part of a health promotion campaign to enhance public awareness about the key contribution of safe and nutritious food and physical activity to healthy lifestyles.

The 3 Fives were jointly developed by the WHO Departments of Food Safety and Zoonoses, Nutrition for Health and Development and Chronic Diseases and Health Promotion.
