Speaker information - Majella Jones, APD:

I'm an Accredited Practising Dietitian and PhD student based in Naarm on Wurundjeri Country. My work builds upon my own lived experience approach as a queer nonbinary, disable, and multiply neurodivergent person with a lived experience of an eating disorder. My work primarily involves the intersection of gender diversity, neurodivergence, disability and chronic health, and eating differences/difficulties. In all areas of my life, I am involved in advocacy and education, which focuses on increasing accessibility and inclusivity for marginalised folks across healthcare, systems, and broader community contexts.
