Unlocking Inclusion for People with Disabilities | Aaron DeVries | TEDxUSD

In a world where people with disabilities often face exclusion and marginalization, it's crucial to understand the challenges they encounter daily. From physical barriers in public spaces to social stigmas and misconceptions, individuals with disabilities navigate a world that isn't always designed with their needs in mind. This underscores the critical importance of empathy in creating a more inclusive society. Understanding and acknowledging these challenges is the first step toward fostering a more empathetic and inclusive community. You will learn about the foundational importance of empathy in creating inclusive communities. You will discover how personal accountability and empathy can drive meaningful change, empowering you to play a vital role in building a more inclusive and compassionate world.
