Webinar: LGBTIQ+ Body Pride: Navigating body image and eating disorders

The LGBTIQ+ community is disproportionately impacted by eating disorders and body image concerns.

This webinar used Mardi Gras and Sydney WorldPride as a springboard to explore how unrealistic expectations of what LGBTIQ+ people should look like can leave people vulnerable to engaging in disordered eating and exercise behaviours to change their bodies. It explored ways to reduce risk and provide support.
