This PLD workshop in Hamiltion | Kirikiriroa will address the language of disability with attitudes being at the centre.
We will spend some time looking at how the history of disability has shaped our future and tackle some of the misconceptions about disability culture today. Tease out the medical and social
model and what each can look like in practice.
We will explore the ironies and best efforts to create inclusive and accessible environments using photographs, humour and lived experiences as prompts for discussion.
Finally, we will talk about ways to become change agents in our community using a rights framework.
