In this performance, members of the Inclusive Campus project from the University of British Columbia will use research-based theatre to bring attention to inclusive workspaces for health students and professionals. This project’s work seeks to identify and address barriers to accessibility in university and healthcare settings through storytelling. Over three years, they held 150 interviews with 80 students and clinicians who self-identify as living with a disability. The goal: to understand the success and challenges to inclusive workplaces. Participants will witness the stories heard as part of this research, learn new perspectives, and reflect on their own experiences. What can we do to make our own workplaces more accessible?

Who should attend: anyone interested in addressing barriers to accessibility in university and healthcare settings
