This programme is called ‘Scott Parker goes live’ – which prompted my latest challenging conversation with Anel asking: So what is top of your mind- what is ‘live?’ - as you continue to tackle what you describe as the ‘global disability equality crisis’?

Her questions just kept coming:

- Why does the world still so strongly resist the message that disability is a human rights and equality imperative-as evidenced by your ongoing struggle to get disability into the global ethical and responsible AI debate?

- Why are disabled employees never described as ‘entitled’ to reasonable adjustments –as women are ‘entitled’ to maternity leave’? 
 
- Why does the phrase: ‘inclusion is a choice’ trigger your instant reply: “Well I guess ‘not robbing a bank’ is also a choice.’’

- Does focusing on the ‘bright side’ of incremental progress really get better results- or does failure to dig deep into disability specific obstacles, such as the state of HR training worldwide, or the ideology of equity and inclusion - make progress less likely?

Do join us for what we hope you agree is a thought provoking conversation.
