🌍 Global Neurodiversity Perspectives:
Cultural and Institutional Contexts Shaping Inclusion 🌍
Neurodiversity is global, yet much of what we know about neuroinclusion is still shaped by Western perspectives.

Featuring scholars from Japan 🇯🇵, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦, Poland 🇵🇱, Australia 🇦🇺, India 🇮🇳, and New Zealand 🇳🇿, we'll discuss what we can learn from different cultural and national contexts to build more globally informed and culturally responsive approaches to neuroinclusion in organizations.
