Abstract
Weight bias is a social justice issue that manifests in social and health inequities, affecting the lives of millions of individuals globally. Although weight bias research has increased over the last two decades, it remains pervasive, and more work is needed to establish effective strategies to reduce it. The 2024 International Weight Bias Summit aimed to collaboratively identify future research directions for prioritization as well as perceived barriers in the global field of weight bias and stigma. This paper presents the primary findings from the Summit.
