BUILD: Size Diversity – Every Body Is Different

BUILD: Size Diversity – Every Body Is Different promotional image

The session will examine issues related to body image and size diversity. We will discuss society's messages about body image and body size, and how this impacts inclusivity at the University of Iowa. As a result of this session, participants will (a) be able to identify sizeism and how that impacts the UI community, (b) understand their own perceptions and biases with regard to body size, and (c) develop strategies for decreasing body shame and body size discrimination.
