It can be difficult to get it right, especially when it comes to producing resources intended for multicultural audiences. Writing about disability requires sensitivity and translators have been grappling with it for a long time. How do we navigate disability language clearly, safely, and respectfully? The language we use to describe, portray and address people with disability matters and is one of the key elements of effective communication. In this video, you will hear from language and communication experts exploring: History of the language of disability The words we choose – what to say and what not to say Translation and cross cultural challenges Our panellists Karen Hedley Karen has a desire for ensuring everyone understands communication and can be included in the community.
