The Health and Wellbeing team are working with The Women’s Advocacy Group of NI (WAGNI) to organise a Community event for International Women’s Day (IWD) and, together, we are bringing over A/Professor Sarah Maguire and Dr Karen Spielman from the Inside Out Institute (https://insideoutinstitute.org.au/#gsc.tab=0) based at Sydney University. This is a National Institute involved in Research, Clinical Innovation, Education and Public Policy in body image and eating disorders.
While on-Island they have kindly offered to run an education session for health and psycho-social professionals on clinical and other issues involved in supporting people affected by body image and eating disorders as well as sessions at the School and for parents.
For more information either contact Dale Howe from WAGNI on 56025 or Karen Innes-Walker on 53969.
