Research
In order to elaborate a "Report on the Situation of Eating Disorders in Sport around Europe", partners have studied the situation of EDs around Europe through surveys directed to target groups (sport coaches, athletes, sport clubs, etc.), analysis of statistical data and review of the literature. As a result, they discovered higher risk disciplines and the most common EDs among athletes. In addition, they found out the gaps in the knowledge of sport coaches and families in this respect.

Elaboration of the Map
L’ORMA at this point prepared digital map with all the available European Resources in relation to EDs. This map works as an interactive platform in which the general public can look for the associations/entities closer to them that can offer some kind of support for people struggling with an ED. There is not any similar initiative existent, but partners believe it would be very useful when looking for help in this matter.
