Our Mission:
The International Relations Committee was created in October 2008 to achieve IAEDP’s goals in serving the International Community by building an international presence and making collaborative efforts with eating disorder professionals worldwide, with an added emphasis on outreach efforts outside of North America.

Our Objectives:
Committee members are tasked to create partnerships by fostering collaborative relationships with local eating disorder societies, leading eating disorder professionals and/or Ministries of Health from their geographical region. They will be charged to identify international eating disorder organizations, contact them and advertise the advantages of establishing collaborative and future partnerships.
