No travel costs or visa barriers. Researchers from any country can participate on equal footing.
Registration is kept deliberately affordable so early career researchers and those with limited funding can attend.
Open to psychologists, anthropologists, sociologists, medics, and more — united by an interest in body image.
The programme includes both research talks and poster presentations, giving a platform to work at every stage.
