Beyond Labels: Our Families, Our Stories

About the Programme

Beyond Labels: Our Families, Our Stories brings together persons with disabilities, families, caregivers, educators and community members to share lived experiences and perspectives on disability and inclusion.

Through personal stories, conversations and community showcases, the programme invites visitors to look beyond labels and encounter the people, families and experiences behind them. Visitors can hear from speakers with diverse lived experiences, meet exhibitors with different experiences and perspectives, and discover what inclusion can look like in everyday life.

The programme aims to encourage greater understanding of disability and inclusion, while creating space for genuine conversations between people who may not otherwise have the opportunity to meet and learn from one another.

The event is open to the public. Admission is free.
