About this Event

Host Organization: The Transforming Disability Knowledge, Research and Activism project

The Transforming Disability Knowledge, Research and Activism project is hosting a knowledge mobilization event for faculty/students across the disciplines including disability studies, youth and childhood studies with a focus on children\'s rights, and women\'s and gender studies.

Please join us to meet the research team, including Claudia Mitchell (McGill), Deborah Stienstra (Guelph), Landon Pearson (Carleton) of the Landon Pearson Centre, and Linh Dang (one RA from Hanoi Law School in Vietnam), which are some of leading experts in these fields.

The event will feature a documentary film co-produced by our research team entitled \"Our Journey\", featuring women and girls with disabilities in Vietnam, followed by a panel discussion about the film and a photo exhibition of their drawings and photos.

Refreshments will be served. Please register for this event.

Participants who have not registered are still welcome to attend.
