UN-Recognized. Evidence-Based. Life-Changing.
Recognized by the United Nations Inter-Agency Task Force on Noncommunicable Diseases as a best practice in obesity care, the OM Wellness Workshop is an internationally recognized, award-winning program that is transforming how people understand and manage obesity.
Now entering its third year, this innovative 12-month series combines evidence-based education, peer support, and practical nutrition and movement sessions to help participants better understand obesity as a chronic disease, navigate treatment options with confidence, and build sustainable habits that improve long-term health and wellbeing.
More than education, the program delivers measurable outcomes. Research has shown significant reductions in self-blame and weight-related guilt, while increasing participants’ confidence to make lasting health behaviour changes. These findings have been presented at leading national and international scientific conferences and demonstrate the impact of combining science with lived experience.
Led by internationally renowned experts and amplified through a global digital reach of more than 12 million, the OM Wellness Workshop provides accessible, compassionate, and evidence-based support for individuals, healthcare professionals, employers, and anyone committed to improving obesity care.
