Diet Culture, Weight Stigma and Disordered Eating

5 September 2024 11:00am–12:30pm
 
in Diet Culture, Weight Stigma and Disordered Eating
Join us to learn more about eating disorders, how to identify disordered eating or body image concerns (in the context of diet culture, weight stigma, and social media), and ways to challenge harmful narratives that these constructs promote.

Plus, practical ways to implement a conversation with someone you know who is experiencing eating or body image concerns, and where to access support for yourself or others, will also be covered.
