Our colleague’s at La Mattina Dopo odv in Italy have been making a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals with obesity for the past four years. Dedicated to advocacy, support, and education, the association continues to expand its reach and efforts, aiming to address one of today’s most pressing health challenges.
Looking ahead, La Mattina Dopo has announced several ambitious projects of significant scientific importance, slated for the next two years. These initiatives will focus on advancing the understanding and treatment of obesity, ensuring patients receive the care and recognition they deserve.
Beginning in March 2025, the association will launch international projects targeting childhood and youth obesity, with a special emphasis on reducing weight stigma. By engaging directly with schools, the initiative aims to educate young people about the complexities of obesity, fostering empathy and promoting healthier lifestyles from an early age.
Additionally, two groundbreaking scientific projects are in development, poised to explore the new frontiers of obesity treatment and management. These projects will contribute valuable insights to the global obesity dialogue, further emphasising the need for personalised, evidence-based approaches.
The organisation’s unwavering commitment to raising awareness and improving outcomes for those affected by obesity sets a powerful example. As La Mattina Dopo continues to grow and innovate, its work serves as a beacon of hope and progress in the fight against obesity.
