Neurodiversity Celebration Week – Welsh School of Architecture Special Event

The Welsh School of Architecture is running a special event during Neurodiversity Celebration Week 2024 (18-24th March), as a means of increasing staff and student awareness of neurodiversity, such as Autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, other conditions and generally, issues of 'different abilities': what these are, how they impact colleagues and peers, and how our work, social and spatial environments, created by and for neurotypical population, can and need to adapt to be inclusive for neurodiversity. The event will take place on the 19th of March (Tuesday) in person at the WSA (Bute Building 0.52&54, Cardiff University). The day will be split into two - two guest talks in the morning and a workshop to explore neurodiversity and architecture in the afternoon.
