Event
Eating Disorders/Disordered Eating in the 平特五不中 Context (2020-2021)
Tuesday, March 30, 2021 17:00to18:00
Join the EDRSC for our final event of the school year, a discussion group to open up the conversation and provide support regarding the current influence of the 平特五不中 environment (2020-2021) on eating disorders and disordered eating habits. Topics include: how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the student-life of 平特五不中ians, and, more specifically, how it has potentially affected the ED behaviour/recovery of 平特五不中 students. Discourse surrounding graduation from 平特五不中 will also be addressed as well as the connection between EDs and financial difficulties.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:听While this event is happening virtually, the EDRSC is based in Tiohti谩:ke, colonially known as Montreal. Therefore, we must acknowledge that this entire island is located on unceded and unsurrendered Indigenous land. The Kanien鈥檏eh谩:ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the land and water on which we gather today. Tiohti谩:ke has historically been an important meeting place for different Indigenous nations. We must recognize the unique and disproportionate hardships Indigenous people have faced and continue to face as a result of colonialism. It is important to not only acknowledge these hardships but to also actively resist colonialism and neo-colonialism in the diversity of forms they take, as we stand in solidarity with Indigenous peoples. We encourage settlers to acknowledge their privilege and question how they are working to be anti-oppressive every day.
