2025 Dr. Laverne Jacobs: Disability Equality as an Ethical Project of Inclusion

Title: 2025 Walter S. Owen Lecture with Dr. Laverne Jacobs: Disability Equality as an Ethical Project of Inclusion Description: Disability Equality as an Ethical Project of Inclusion Disability rights law evokes notions of empowerment, recognition and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Yet, at this moment, members of the disability community face significant barriers to achieving equality, especially in relation to accessibility and access to justice. Anchored in a deep and rich history of legal decisions and legislative developments, including in areas such as transportation, access to postsecondary education and procedural accommodations, efforts to achieve disability equality in Canada have had varying levels of success. In this lecture, Professor Laverne Jacobs re-orients the discussion, proposing that many governmental efforts to achieve equality would benefit from centering disability equality not simply as a legal right, but also as an ethical project of inclusion.
