Abstract
There are several laws, policies, and recommendations providing protection to children from environmental harm. Lack of clean food can be one of such harms. Clean food is not just about food availability or accessibility but also about food safety. This means that food must be free of adverse substances—in other words, it must be healthy food. For decades, there have been discussions and attempts to find solutions on how to reduce the marketing of unhealthy food to children to prevent overweight, obesity, and diseases. It has also been proved that unhealthy food too often reaches children through digital marketing. This article discusses whether the existing legal grounds and policies provide sufficient protection to children from unhealthy food advertised on digital media. It also explores how technology impacts children’s right to clean food and what could be the solutions for managing this issue.
