The association has several missions. To:

• 1- Train health care professionals to support people suffering from eating disorders:

- Anorexia nervosa
- Restrictive eating
- Bulimia
- Compulsive eating

• 2- Inform the general public about the prevention and management of anorexia, bulimia and severe compulsive eating.
• 3- Help people who suffer from eating disorders fight their eating disorder.

At dawn of the 21st Century the number of people suffering from anorexia nervosa, bulimia and compulsive eating is increasing.

We need to confront this problem and take action to:

• Develop efficient prevention strategies
• Provide health care professionals with objective information
• Treat people with eating disorders who are unwell and give them and their families guidance and advice
