Did you miss out on the #ASID2018 Conference "Let's Shake It Up - Human Rights for Everyone" at the Gold Coast?
Never fear! Episode three takes you to the Gold Coast in Queensland for an access all areas taster of the #ASID 2018 conference.
We pay our respects to the traditional families and lands of Yugambeh region of South East Queensland. Willie Prince, founding member of the Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Disability Network of Queensland, welcomed us to country. Hear more about Willie's story.
In this episode, we hear from all the keynotes including Queensland self-advocates Paul O'Dea, Donna Best and Alex Baker; international keynote speakers Professor Andrew Jahoda, Professor Chris Hatton, Associate Professor Ann Fudge Schormans and Doctor Brigit Mirfin-Veitch; and Australian academics Professor Monica Cuskelly and Dr Kathy Ellem.
We also did lots of running around getting vox pops on highlights from the wider program from delegates, including self-advocates.
Find out more about the keynotes and presentation on the #ASID2018 conference website and stay tuned for #ASID2019 in Adelaide.
We also have an exciting bonus episode due in early 2019 where you will hear the outcome of the popular conference Storytelling Booth. There will be heaps of stories from self-advocates who attended. Don't miss it!
This episode was produced by Ben Pawson, Buffy Gorrilla, Sophia Tipping & Associate Professor Hilary Johnson with thanks to the Living with Disability Research Centre.
