ABOUT EAT.org
Welcome to EAT.org, your essential resource for navigating eating disorders in Europe. We are dedicated to providing a comprehensive platform that connects individuals, families, and professionals with vital information and support. Our mission is to raise awareness and ensure that everyone has easy access to the resources they need. Together, we can make a difference the lives of those affected by eating disorders.
OUR APPROACH
Eating disorders are complex and require a multidisciplinary approach. At EAT.org, we aim to provide a comprehensive platform offering resources, support, and information for individuals, families, and professionals dealing with eating disorders in European countries. Our team consists of experts in the field of eating disorders, including dieticians, psychologists, and medical professionals. We collaborate with various partners and organizations to ensure that our resources are up to date and evidence-based. Our goal is to empower individuals and families affected by eating disorders and provide them with the tools they need to recover.
CHALLENGES
Eating disorders are critical but treatable mental and physical illnesses that can affect people of all ages, genders, races, religions, ethnicities, sexual orientations, body shapes, and weights. In Europe alone, it is estimated 20 million people suffer from eating disorders. While it is undiscovered exactly what causes eating disorders, a growing consensus suggests that it is a range of biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors.
In Europe, there is a lack of centralized, comprehensive resources and support specifically tailored to European countries regarding eating disorders. Therefore, EAT.org aims to educate, provide, raise awareness and prevent eating disorders across European countries.
OUR
INSPIRATION
