Abstract:
As organizations in Canada operationalize legislative requirements to remove barriers to inclusion for Persons with Disabilities (PwD), this timely panel provides best-practices and lived-experiences to engage in a horizontal policy discussion exploring:

• The place of disability in scientific and social innovation
• How science, research, and innovation can empower PwD
• Measures to create barrier-free and targeted research and employment opportunities
• Barriers that remain and ways to overcome them
• The importance of inclusion in advancing Canada’s science, research, and innovation objectives
• A must-attend session for policy and decision-makers
