Neurodivergent at University Documentary

Neurodivergent at University

This documentary short features five neurodivergent students who share their different experiences at the university. Working in partnership, Accessibility Services and the Innovation Hub share these students' stories using their video diaries, voiceovers, and vlogs of their day-to-day lives, where they provide commentary on their unique experiences and journeys. By highlighting the experiences of neurodivergent students, the goal is to inspire conversations about more inclusive practices to support diverse students across the University of Toronto.
