About the event
We brought together members of our Arts community - staff, students and alumni - to think about those areas where the Faculty is leading the way in inclusive education.
Building on the successful conference last year, the 2024 showcase highlighted more examples of positive inclusive practice in the Faculty of Arts, and asked where we can go next.
