CALL FOR PAPERS
Intersections and Independence:
The Thirteenth Annual Multiple Perspectives on Access, Inclusion &
Disability:
April 16 - 17, 2013
Held on The Ohio State University's Columbus Campus
This year's theme focuses presenters on the frictions, synergies and
synthesis that occur at the boundaries of multiple roles, identities and
perspectives within individuals and between them. Some possibilities to
consider:
* Exploration of the simultaneous influences of models of
disability (charity, medical, legal, social...) on individual
experience, norms or systems change.
* Universal Design; Independence and identity; Built, virtual &
social environments.
* How disability influences gender, ethnic and racial identities
or how they influence disability identity development.
* Representations of disability.
* Variations in privilege and oppression across identities and
roles.
* Locating disability: person, place or attitude.
* Trends in law, education, business, public policy, ...
Preference will be given to presentations that encourage conversations
across the typical boundaries (care and independence, education and
employment, research and practice, business and government, rights and
charity ...) or focus broadly on difference by incorporating parallels
and contrasts with race, gender and ethnicity.
Past programs and conference updates as they become available can be
