Applying a Size-Inclusive Approach to health promotion initiatives aims to create a culture and environment that supports all people to optimise their health and wellbeing. It creates space for authentic change to effectively shift the systems that hold weight stigma in place.
Join Better Health Network in learning about the size inclusive principles and how you can implement them into your everyday practice. The workshop will also highlight the strategies to apply a size inclusive approach within your day-to-day work.
