Accessibility as part of EDI-A
This two parts interactive workshop is perfectly adapted for workplaces as it touches on foundational aspects of disability, disability justice, ableism and accessibility while proving a focus on disability concerns within employment. It will provide employees and employers tools to become better allies to their disabled co-workers and employees on and off the clock. The goal of this workshop is to open attendees’ horizons when it comes to noticing inaccessibility at work and in their personal lives and encourage them to develop more positive and accepting attitudes towards disabled people and disability.

Abolishing Carceral Politics: Disability, desirability and emancipation for all
Coming in June 2026.
This one-hour seminar looks into the many meanings of abolition on a macro and micro level, whether that be deinstitutionalization, prison and police abolition for the goal of disability justice, as well as the abolition of the punitive mindsets we hold and apply to others and ourselves. Such topics are deeply intertwined with racial justice and gender-based emancipation, and especially when those also intersect with disability and desirability. This seminar also looks into the concept of the “carceral mindset” and how it impacts the way we view disabled, mad, trans, fat, unhoused people, and BIPOCs, as well as their sexuality and freedoms.
