Synopsis
Healthy Trajectories is proud to
bring a celebration of the International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD)
to Grand Rounds at The Royal Children's Hospital. In line with our vision for
an inclusive Australia, we will share what we and others around the Campus have
been doing to authentically involve young people growing up with a disability,
and their families, as partners in research. You will hear from researchers and
those with lived experience of childhood-onset disability about what they have
learned about what is needed to work together effectively. We will share
stories about our work and its impacts, as well as tips, resources and
opportunities for learning for those wanting to collaborate in research in this
way.
