International Conference on Obesity (ICO)

Nov 18, 2022 | Events

The conference highlighted just how much work there is to do but it was encouraging and motivating to be amongst so many people and organisations who are working towards a shift toward collective responsibility and to see the many advancements already taking place. Of particular note, was the inclusion of delegates from the Weight Issues Network team who sat on many panels throughout the conference. The voice of lived experience was sought after many times throughout the five days. Many of our Collective Leaders presented at the conference and it was great to see everyone in person!
