What is Neurodiversity?
Neurodiversity refers to the natural variations in human cognition and behavior, including differences in the ways that people think, learn, and experience the world. It is a concept that was first coined by Australian sociologist Judy Singer in the late 1990s and has since become an important movement within the disability rights community. By embracing and supporting the unique perspectives and skills of neurodivergent individuals, organizations can benefit from the value that diversity brings to the workplace. The neurodiversity movement emerged in response to the medical model of disability, which viewed differences as pathological and in need of correction or cure. It is rooted in the broader disabilities rights movement of the 1970s and 1980s, which sought to promote a more inclusive and supportive society for disabled people. Join us in exploring the power of neurodiversity and the unique strengths that each individual brings to the table.
