Fully Accessible? Imagining Accessible Futures in a Post-AODA Ontario
To celebrate this year’s International Day for Persons with Disabilities (IDPD), King’s University College is proud to bring local and provincial thought leaders into conversation on two vital questions: what could an accessible Ontario look like in 2050 and what steps do we need to take now, and in the future, to make our province more inclusive?
Panelists include:
- Patrick Case - former Assistant Deputy Minister for the Ontario Ministry of Education
- Tracy MacCharles - former Member of Provincial Parliament of Ontario as the Minister responsible for Accessibility
- Frances Elizabeth Moore - Program Manager, Consultant, and Facilitator for Local Indigenous Issues. Storyteller, Community Advocate, Educator, and Non-profit Leader
- Melanie Stone - Accessibility and Inclusion Advisor for the City of London
- Nicole Turner - Operational Specialist (Paediatrics) at London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC).
Facilitated by Dr. Jeffrey Preston, Associate Professor and Chair of Disability Studies at King's University College.
