Promoting healthy lifestyles can be a successful weapon in counter-fighting the epidemics of overweight and obesity. The PEGASO project aims at encouraging adolescents to become co-creators of their own health. In particular, it aims at creating an ecosystem where adolescents are motivated and supported in adopting healthy lifestyles. In this ecosystem, the PEGASO Companion, a smartphone app, plays the role of universal access to healthy services and providing personalised mechanisms to support behaviour change.
