Examining public perceptions & experiences of eating disorders

Abstract

This is another loop in an important social research agenda that merits attention and focus. Eating disorders are indeed complex conditions that are shown to affect so many people and the immediate circle around them. This study commissioned by Dar Kenn g魔al Sa魔魔tek and ably piloted by Annabel Cuff, RSO supported by Prof. Anton Grech and Darleen Zerafa surface some important issues that merit immediate attention and consideration. Essentially, we need to keep investing in Dar Kenn G魔al Sa魔魔tek, in developing a bigger pool of professionals, strengthening our services within the community and converging the efforts of NGOs, government agencies and other entities to ensure that a comprehensive approach to this problem is being dealt with coherently and comprehensibly. It is always a pleasure collaborating with Dar Kenn g魔al Sa魔魔tek. It is through these initiatives and collaborations that our Faculty remains a valid and important stakeholder in the social sector.
