Disability Day 2024 - artwork by Renay Barker-Mulholland

Catch 12 hours of programming on Tuesday 3 December for International Day of People with Disability. This year’s theme is EMBODIED SOLIDARITIES. How can we better practice solidarity with each other as fellow disabled people of different backgrounds and abilities, locally and across borders, at a time in humankind’s existence where mass-disabling violence is increasing? How can non-disabled people better practice solidarity with us? Listen in as we reflect and explore through conversation, music, and more. Check out all the details here.
