Within Summit 2026
This year, we are gathering the brightest minds across healthcare, grassroots advocacy, and media for a transformative, interdisciplinary event. For too long, systemic disparities, socioeconomic barriers, and identity-based stigma have dictated who gets access to life-saving recovery. We’re here to create a more inclusive path forward.
Through insightful educational panels, dynamic discussions, and collaborative sessions, the 2026 Within Summit will dissect how eating disorders intersect with broader health inequities and diet culture. Together, we will examine the media's power in shaping public perception, harness the energy of non-profits, and build actionable, equitable strategies to transform the healthcare landscape.
