Neurodiversity: Race and Realities

Join Diversity and Ability for a new course unpacking the systemic barriers impacting Black and brown neurodiverse people.

We'll explore neurodiversity through the lenses of race, class and culture, discovering how our institutions and leaders can better support participation, retention and mental health inclusion.

 

What will it involve?

As a course participant, you'll benefit from three days of hybrid learning, learning what we can do practically to reduce or remove barriers to participation.

You'll explore:

  • Identity
  • Workplace culture
  • Communication 
  • Dimensions of racism
  • Disablement and defensive postures
  • Safe and protected spaces
  • Strategy development
Three people sit on a stage, deep in conversation. They are, from left to right: Atif, a brown man with dark hair and a grey beard, Poppy, a brown woman with short curly hair wearing a red sari, and David, a white man wearing a suit jacket and jeans. Atif is gesturing as he speaks.

"[D&A] created a welcoming and inclusive space which spoke to everyone's very differing levels of experience and confidence."

- Feedback from Diversity and Ability's equity, diversity and inclusion training.

"This thought-provoking talk was (amongst other things) a sobering reminder of the very many reasons why people choose not to disclose. If anyone can help inspire and promote universal inclusive design, it's Atif."

- Feedback on Atif Choudhury's (CEO, Diversity and Ability) workshop, Moving at the Speed of Trust: Neurodiversity, belonging and the intersections of race, culture and experience.
