About the Healthy Body and Mind Project – A Program by EDAOP

Healthy Body and Mind Project Pakistan is a dissonance-based early intervention program developed for adolescents and young boys and girls aged 9 to 18 years who experience body dissatisfaction. The program is an adapted version of the internationally renowned Body Project, which has empowered millions of young women globally to challenge harmful appearance ideals.
This program is designed to help adolescents and young boys and girls critically reflect on and reduce their internalization of societal beauty standards. Participants voluntarily engage in a range of interactive verbal, written, and behavioral activities aimed at reducing disordered eating attitudes and body image concerns.
