#WODEurope supports the use of appropriate, non-stigmatising person-first language and provides opportunities for reaching out to primary care physicians and other healthcare professionals.

➡️ Stigma has no place in healthcare systems or the media.

Obesity is a chronic disease—let’s treat it like one!
In Europe, many gaps exist between best practice recommendations and the actual care provided for people living with obesity. It’s time to close these gaps and ensure everyone gets the care they deserve.

Across Europe, policy decisions shape access to obesity care. Aligning EU policy with evidence can reduce inequalities and improve support. Together this #WorldObesityDay, we are #AddressingObesityTogether. #WODEurope #ObesityDay2026
