Accessibility in Research: From Design to Dissemination

Date

Wednesday March 1, 2023
10:00 am - 11:30 am

Location

Virtual session

The Vice-Principal Research Portfolio is pleased to host a webinar dedicated to Accessibility in Research.  This session will be jointly presented by the Co-chair of SSHRC's Advisory Committee on Accessibility and Systemic Ableism Dr. Stefan Sunandan Honisch and the Queen’s Manager for Accessibility Services, Andrew Ashby.


Stefan Sunandan Honisch will provide an overview of “Accessibility in Research: From Design to Dissemination” a toolkit that he helped develop for Royal Roads University. The toolkit suggests guiding questions and offers concrete recommendations for conducting research that incorporates disability inclusion and access into all phases of a project.
 

Andrew Ashby will provide a foundational knowledge of accessibility and reducing barriers:

  • Why is accessibility important?
  • Understanding Accessibility vs Accommodation
  • Accessibility barriers
  • Increasing accessibility with some easy and quick accessibility wins
     

Through participation in this workshop, you will learn:

  • how to use the toolkit in different research and teaching contexts
  • how to move beyond approaches that react to disability through ad hoc individual accommodations
  • how to develop disability-inclusive methods of data collection and analysis

A moderated question-and-answer session will follow the workshop.

Accessibility:

  • ASL-English
  • CART – Communication Access Realtime Translation

Increased cybersecurity threat from Russian state-sponsored actors

Please be aware of the increased risk of malicious cybersecurity activity targeted at higher education institutions in recent weeks as a result of the increased geo-political tensions between Russian, Ukraine and Ukraine’s western allies (including Canada).

Below you will find the measures Queen’s has in place to protect against such threats, and the actions you can take to further minimize risk.
