Please join us for the launch of the University's first Disability Inclusion Research and Innovation Plan!

The launch will serve to share the Plan with the University research community, and to ensure that key stakeholders are aware of its purpose and implementation schedule. 

In drafting the Plan, we've consulted widely across the organisation over the last nine months in order to centre the voices and experiences of UQ research and professional staff and HDR students with a lived experience of disability.

The Plan will be officially launched by Professor Paul Bonnington, Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Research Infrastructure) and will be co-hosted by Professor Pauline Ford, Deputy Provost and Paul Harpur OAM, Chair, UQ Disability Inclusion Group.

Program Overview:

  • 10:00am - Tea and coffee and networking opportunities
  • 10:30am - Launch event
  • 11:15am - Post-launch refreshments and further networking opportunities.

Note: Additionally, there will be two additional afternoon events: "Inclusive Research - Co-design with Researchers with Intellectual Disabilities" and "UQ DIAN Disability Inclusion Research Showcase".
