Presented by Shea Tanis, Associate Research Professor, Life Span Institute

 

Disability Visibility clearly and poignantly describes ways in which the world has not been built for people with disabilities and how everyday struggles are due to unanticipated (and sometimes anticipated) structural and systemic barriers. But what if those barriers did not exist? One way to ensure that barriers are not created is by meaningfully including people with disabilities in research and design. Through these models, accessibility is baked into the outcomes rather than trying to retrofit programs, systems, and practices after inequities are identified. In this session, you will learn about inclusive research and design, and how to take initial steps toward accessibility and valued participant engagement in your work.
