An Introduction into Diffability and Its Theoretical and Legal Frameworks.
Challenging Conventional Beliefs And Mind Sets Held Towards People With Diffabilities.
In this session, I will walk you through diffability:
What does disability mean? What does it imply?
What are the common connotations around disability?
This session will take you through the medical and social model of disability and educate you about inclusion, discrimination and reasonable adjustments.
While all of that may sound very academic, I centre my sessions around experiential learning via disability simulation. I encourage open discussions. Sharing my story and my experience of being diffabled.
By the end of the session, you will have developed an insight in regards to the label of being disabled and will have an idea of how to remove barriers within society which act to further disable a person with a diffability.
