Is creating a proposal about obesity rates valid?

well it depends if your proposal contradicts another or references a specific nation in the GA assembly then it's not valid but I would follow this viewtopic.php?f=9&t=159348

We have a thread for questions and answers. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=48437.

Your answer can't be meaningfully answered until we know what specifically you want to do about obesity rates. Is it 'force all nations not to measure it so the problem is swept under the rug'? Is it 'better education on food'? Is it 'compulsory WA weight loss camps' (South Park reference)? Your specific policy choice is more important than the topic.

It's more about food safety and ingredient lists on food.

There already is a food safety resolution, but what do either of those have to do with obesity?

Araraukar is right, there are already many food safety regulation resolutions like Resolution 64

Panemore, here's something you might not know about WA (and it's ok, you're new). Your stats are not considered "canon" when writing resolutions. For example, here are all of my stats. When you write a WA resolution, it's against the rules to take those stats into account. For example, I'm not allowed to write a resolution that forces nations with a 50% or higher obesity rating to ban chips. That's against the WA resolution protocols and standards. I know I'm probably not doing the best job explaining it so here is the official GA rules page
