D4D Futurity: Disability Today and Tomorrow
19th September 2019
EDEN Arbour Room, Liverpool Hope University
Keynote Presentation:
‘Disability, Posthumanism and Technological Futures’ by Prof Stuart Murray, University of Leeds, UK.
Disability futurity refers to the disability of the future; the future of disability. The Centre for Culture and Disability Studies is collaborating on a number of events that initiate and investigate multiple theories, representations, and concepts around this theme. What does an aging population mean for disability identity? If a growing number of people are expected to experience disability, how should the experiential knowledge of disabled people in the present be regarded and rendered? What are the implications of these non-normative ways of knowing? These and related questions are to be explored by contributors to the AHRC- funded D4D project in a symposium hosted by the CCDS.
Attendance is free of charge but delegates are required to book via Liverpool Hope’s online store: https://store.hope.ac.uk/conferences-and-events/faculty-of-education/d4d-futurity-disability-today-tomorrow/d4d-futurity-disability-today-and-tomorrow-symposium-19th-sept-19
