VALID Conversations is a new webinar series led by people with disability.
Each session focuses on real issues, lived experience and practical ways to create change. It’s a space for people to share ideas, speak up and be heard.
Led by lived experience. Focused on real change.
VALID Conversations aims to centre the voices of people with disability and position them as leaders and experts. The series will explore current issues, highlight what’s working and share practical solutions that can make a difference.
It also builds on the conversations started at events like Advocacy in Action, creating an ongoing space for connection, learning and leadership throughout the year.
