Challenging our disordered thinking about Neurodiversity | A/Prof. Sarah Verdon | TEDxWagga Wagga

Throughout history people with Autism and ADHD have faced stigma and barriers that have prevented them from really being seen. But what if we’ve got it all wrong? This talk will challenge everything you know about neurodiversity, busting myths and shedding new light on the positives of embracing the diversity of all people. Sarah is a speech pathologist, early childhood researcher and mother of three. An Associate Professor in Speech Pathology in the Faculty of Science and Health at Charles Sturt University, her research spans five continents and focuses on embracing the diversity of children from different cultures, languages, geographic areas, socioeconomic backgrounds and levels of ability to create equitable opportunities for all. Sarah has represented Australia on the World Health Organisation Development Group for Autism Spectrum Disorder, overseen the development of the Speech Pathology Australia national position paper and clinical guidelines for “working in a culturally and linguistically diverse society” and hosts the “Talking Children Podcast”, a podcast designed to support caregivers and educators to give their children the best start to life. She also runs a rural speech pathology practice to provide much needed services to geographically isolated children with communication needs. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
