2023 Assembly and Convention: Together We Can Do What We Could Never Do Alone
Region Ten Assembly:
Generally, assembly provides a forum for Overeaters Anonymous Region Ten Intergroups to discuss issues, swap ideas, and conduct the formal business of the region. Region Ten consists of Service Bodies and Intergroups in New Zealand, Australia, East Asia, South East Asia, and the Western Pacific Basin. Liaisons and observers are welcome at Assembly, however only elected representatives may vote.

Convention is an opportunity for fellowship, as members from all over the region share their experience, strength and hope. There will be workshops, meetings and speakers throughout the weekend, celebrating the many ways we practice these principles in all our affairs.

Special days on the OA calendar
OA’s birthday: January
OA’s first meeting was held in Los Angeles, California 19 January, 1960.
Each year we celebrate OA’s birthday the 3rd Saturday of January.

Unity Day reminds us of the connection of all members and groups of OA to one another. We celebrate Unity Day the last Saturday in February in even years and the last Sunday in February in odd years 11:30a.m. local time. All members of OA are encouraged to take a moment of silence to express their gratitude for the OA Program.
International Day of Experiencing Abstinence – IDEA Day: November
Members of OA worldwide observe IDEA Day the 3rd Saturday in November. IDEA Day was created to encourage members, especially newcomers, to reaffirm or begin their abstinence from compulsive eating.
Twelth Step Within Day: December
December 12 (12/12) is a prompt to encourage OA service boards, meetings and individual members to reach out to those within the Fellowship who are still suffering from compulsive eating behaviours.
