Join CREAN as we explore the dynamic connection between disability advocacy and human rights.
Panelists will draw on personal experiences and advocacy efforts to explore how race, gender, socioeconomic status, and other factors intersect with disability, creating layered challenges for people with disabilities.
Attendees will leave with practical insights on how to build a more inclusive, equitable society for people with disabilities, and how to connect it with broader human rights causes.
This venue is wheelchair accessible.
This panel will be led by:
Hannah Brown: Hannah (they/them) has a passion for inclusion and accessibility, specifically how we can improve access universally for all folks. Hannah is highly involved at UVic and has held several positions on campus and has made many connections across the university that enable them to support their fellow disabled students.
