The UK Disability Rights Commission, in partnership with the Department of Law and the Centre for Disability Studies at the University of Leeds, are pleased to announce a conference to celebrate the European Year of Disabled People, to be held at the University of Leeds on 25-26 September 2003. The conference will examine the range of legal strategies which have been adopted internationally to counter discrimination against disabled people and facilitate their inclusion into mainstream society. The conference aims to bring together scholars, policy-makers, lawyers and others to share insights and develop a greater understanding of the issues involved. It is hoped that the conference will also lead to the creation of a network of interested parties who will develop close links for ongoing work. This conference has been accredited with eleven cpd points by the Law Society and the Bar Council. The conference has been made possible by sponsorship from the UK Disability Rights Commission.
