As part of ongoing work on inclusive and accessible practice in higher education, a short video statement was recorded with Professor Karen Petrie in the lead-up to DUSA Neurodiversity Celebration Week. The filming formed part of the wider British Council–supported project focused on strengthening inclusive education across contexts.
The session brought together colleagues involved in different aspects of the project, including Dr Seemab Farooqi and Dr Ying Wu, with filming and setup led by James Duncan. The approach to the recording reflected a shared commitment to accessibility, ensuring that inclusive principles were considered throughout the process.
A defining aspect of the session was the way inclusion was enacted in practice. The environment and interactions reflected care, respect, and attention to how work is carried out, not only what is communicated. This emphasis on practice aligns with the broader aims of the project, where inclusive education is understood as something embedded in everyday actions and decisions.
The filming sits within a wider programme of collaboration involving partners such as NUST Business School, bringing together perspectives from different institutional and cultural contexts. These collaborations support ongoing reflection on how inclusive practices can be developed and sustained across higher education environments.
The video has now been shared across project channels as part of the project’s wider dissemination activities.
