CALLING ALL DISABLED INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
*******************************************************
Are you an international (non UK) student with an impairment/disability,
long term health condition and/or learning difficulty?
Would you like to talk about your life experiences in an English university?
Would you like to contribute to the disability debate in English
universities?
I am a disabled international student, currently studying for a PhD at the
University of Leeds and I am researching disabled international students’
experiences in English universities.
I am interested to hear about your experiences and your ideas on the
services provided in your university, and also any difficulties you have
encountered during your education, with the hope of working towards a
more inclusive university system in the UK.
Although I am looking at four particular universities, I am interested to
hear from students from other English/UK universities, to give wider
insights into international disabled students' experiences and the
services that you receive at university.
Your involvement in the project will include taking part in a small focus
group of six to eight people of around 1 ½ hours in length, and / or an
individual interview of approximately an hour’s duration. Participation
is voluntary and all participants will be given pseudonyms to safeguard
their identity.
To contribute to this particularly important study please contact me at the
following address: [log in to unmask]

I look forward to hearing from you.
