SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:DAF Lab | Crip Mentoring: Creating Accessible Conferences
DESCRIPTION:This roundtable conversation considers what it means to design accessible conference presentations\, as well as how to survive and navigate conferences as a disabled scholar. How might we advocate for access in inaccessible and often high-stakes terrain? What strategies might we use in our own conference practices to support the work of access creation?\n\nPlease register to attend on Zoom: https://myumi.ch/JwZrE\n\nAbout the Panelists:\n\nMichele Friedner (Professor and Chair\, Department of Comparative Human Development\, University of Chicago) is a medical anthropologist and works at the intersections of medical anthropology\, science and technology studies\, disability studies\, deaf studies\, and sensory studies.
