Dan Goodley travelled to Singapore last week to share plans in relation to new research that will explore the health priorities of disabled people while opening up anti-ableist and anti-disablist practice in university, research and science environments.
Collaborating with disabled academics like Associate Professor Dr Meng Ee Wong from the National Institute of Education / Nanyang Technological University gives us real opportunities for foregrounding the health priorities of disabled people while also interrogating our research cultures to ensure these priorities are made front and centre of our thinking.
Dan Goodley, iHuman Co-director
Dan also had the opportunity to meet members of Disabled People's Association of Singapore who are leading advocates for disabled people in the country. These meetings and discussions are feeding into a new programme of research that iHuman hopes to announce in the new year.
