Equity, Expertise and the Future of Partnership: A Conversational Keynote
What does it take to make student-staff partnership meaningful, equitable and sustainable?
We are an educator (Amani) and a recent graduate (Annelise). Join our conversational keynote focussing on equity, expertise and sustainability in partnership. Annelise brings perspectives from her honours research on neurodivergent occupational therapy students, and from her current work on collaborating with people with lived experience of intellectual disability to improve healthcare. How might these ideas translate into SaP? Amani has been working with SaP for many years, and is currently pondering how to make partnership sustainable. She has been wondering, how can we keep student-staff partnership going, even after champions leave or funding runs out? We will invite you, the audience, to contribute to our conversation.
