Join Us for The Philosopher's Yard Meetup: Exploring "Disability and Inclusivity"

Register via Eventbrite.

Venue is still to be concluded, and accessibility information will be posted then.

In this session, we will delve into thought-provoking questions about Disability and Inclusivity: How can we create an inclusive society? What defines disability? Who should be considered ‘experts’ in making such judgements? What does true inclusivity look like?

Join us in a neutral, welcoming space designed to encourage open dialogue and self-reflection. Whether you are a seasoned philosopher or simply someone who enjoys deep conversations, this is an opportunity to share your perspectives and listen to diverse viewpoints from fellow curious minds.

This meetup will feature a short talk philosophy PhD student at the University of Birmingham Susie Clark, who specialises in the philosophy of disability. She works with local charities such as The Philosophers’ Yard to use philosophy to create more inclusive spaces in schools and businesses. In her talk, Susie will explore how philosophy can be used by disabled people to make sense of their identities and to create change in traditionally inaccessible societies.

The event will take place at Exhale Conscious Bar, an alcohol-free venue located in the Birmingham city centre, chosen to foster positive choices and well-being. The ambiance is perfect for connecting with others who, like you, are searching for deeper understanding and meaningful connections.

We look forward to seeing you there!
