Working with the media to ensure sensitive, accurate media coverage
EDV is working closely with the media to improve the way eating disorders are reported, to fight the myths and stigma that often surround eating disorders, and to ensure more accurate, sensitive and responsible coverage.
We challenge journalists, editors and the fashion industry to present the truth about weight-loss dieting and eating disorders, to include healthy people of all shapes and sizes in modelling and in printed images, and to refrain from sensationalising and trivialising eating disorders simply to sell a story.
To contact Eating Disorders Victoria for comment on an issue or to interview one of EDV's experts on eating disorders or body image, please contact 03 9885 6563 or e-mail EDV's media officer - megan.oconnor@eatingdisorders.org.au
