International Day of People with Disability @ 窪蹋勛圖厙
Inclusion & Engagement (I&E) and the Student Representative Council (SRC) are celebrating early this year on Tuesday 12 October.
The objective of the day is to celebrate the achievements of people with disability by promoting awareness, understanding and acceptance within our workplaces, institutions and communities.
At 窪蹋勛圖厙 we hold equity, diversity, inclusion and access as some of our core principles, so holding an event to celebrate the day for those across 窪蹋勛圖厙 who identify as having a disability is something we take great pride in.
The format of the event will consist of three key activities:
- Hear from 窪蹋勛圖厙 VC & President, Paddy Nixon
- You cant ask that! Q&A panel discussion
- A current 窪蹋勛圖厙 students lived experience of disability in H.E.
Staff and students across 窪蹋勛圖厙 will be able to in the lead up to the event. The four panel members will then address these questions in a constructive manner, whilst offering individual experiences and perspectives.
