- Explore common misconceptions and stereotypes associated with types of disabilities.
- Understand the difference between sympathy and empathy.
- Develop the tools to take action against discrimination and encourage an inclusive culture.
As always for me, its wonderful having the option to have these sessions. But also, learning more about something that so many people have issues with, in terms of stereotypes/misconceptions, and firming up my knowledge and confidence in challenging these behaviours. Understanding and identifying my own potential unconscious biases. As much as I would love to think I don't have them, I find I have to challenge myself every now and then.
Enjoyed time allowed for q&a, very open presentation style and personal examples given, very thought provoking with practical suggestions.
Great approach to a topic people are often scared of. Everyone should do this.
I think that the topics that were brought up need to be spoken about on a regular basis at work and it gives me the confidence to know the right thing to do should I need to speak up for myself or others
