Presenting Listen Include Respect
Our programme, Listen Include Respect, helps organisations understand how to include people with intellectual disabilities in their work.
The Listen Include Respect team are hosting a side-session at the Zero Project conference to talk about:
- The barriers people with intellectual disabilities face in being part of the work of organisations
- Why making sure people with intellectual disabilities are part of decision making and activities is important
- What the Listen Include Respect guidelines are and the goals of this work
During this session we will share a short example training on how to make meetings inclusive.
We will also host a Fireside Chat on Inclusive Meetings on Wednesday 23 February 2022 at 2.40pm CET.
