The International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals Foundation (iaedp™) is launching its Second Call for Proposals for the annual iaedp™ Symposium slated for February 17 – 21, 2021 The deadline for all 2021 proposals is July 31, 2020.

The iaedp™ Foundation is pursuing abstracts in both English and Spanish on inventive and inclusive treatment modalities for the many phases of the journey for those with eating disorders — from denial and resistance to treatment and ultimately recovery. The group also requests treatment providers from all disciplines to convert their latest or ongoing research and treatment updates into meaningful eating disorder treatment protocols across populations.

Many of the professionals who submit proposals for the iaedp™ Symposium include experiential or interactive components in their presentations.

“Preference is given to unique presentations that are being offered for the first time,” says Bonnie Harken, Managing Director at iaedp™. “Individuals are limited to submitting a maximum of two proposals as a presenter or as a co-presenter. Multiple proposals may impact the review process as well as selection for presenting at the 2021 iaedp™ Symposium.”
