Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Identify at least one way that racist ideology has shaped how the modern medical system determines what a "healthy" body looks like.
  2. Describe at least three ways in which fatphobia in medical settings directly leads to worse outcomes for fat patients.
  3. Name at least three of the ten principles of Intuitive Eating and apply them to clinical work or advocacy.

Disclosure

The content of this training draws significantly on the work of fat activists and scholars; participants will be provided with a comprehensive list of resources from individuals with lived experience, and are strongly encouraged to continue learning from this material. Miri and Reyna strongly believe that fat people deserve paid opportunities to speak about their own experiences of fatphobia and perspectives on how to resist it; this training is not that, and should not be considered a substitute for learning directly from fat individuals about their experiences.
