In 2025, the International Weight Stigma Conference will be held online and in-person in Australia for the first time, at Griffith University Gold Coast, on the Country of the Kombumerri People of the Yugambeh language region. The Annual International Weight Stigma Conference is an inter-disciplinary event that brings together scholars and practitioners from a range of backgrounds (e.g., medicine, allied health, nursing, midwifery, public health, government, public policy, psychology, bioethics, sociology, anthropology, education, sports and exercise science, social sciences, media studies, business, law, activism, and the lay public) to consider research, policy, rhetoric, and practice around the issue of weight stigma. This year’s theme “From weight stigma to weight inclusiveness and liberation” highlights the importance of moving beyond studies that demonstrate the extent of the issue, to work that demonstrates how to address and effectively mitigate the issue. By offering a space for learning, collaboration, and action, the conference aims to contribute to the dismantling of weight stigma and the enhancement of weight and size inclusive and liberatory practices, thereby fostering a more equitable, just, and inclusive society. The two-day interdisciplinary program will cover the entire weight stigma spectrum, from basic research through to implementation research, practice, policy, and activism, and feature an outstanding roster of international speakers and local experts.
