Leading Neurodiversity Training Programs in Hong Kong

Talos Foundation believes that every mind has unique strengths and perspectives. Our neurodiversity training in Hong Kong is designed to build awareness, acceptance, and empowerment for neurodivergent individuals across workplaces, schools, and communities.

By participating in neurodiversity training, your stakeholders gain:

• A deeper understanding of neurodivergent experiences, beyond deficits

• Practical tools for inclusion in communication, workflow, and accommodations

• A shift in mindset from “merely tolerant” to “actively inclusive”

Talos Foundation’s approach to neurodivergent training and workshops is grounded in best practices, research, and lived experience. Key features include:

1. Strengths-Based Framing: Focus on talents, not just challenges. We highlight the unique value that neurodivergent people bring (e.g., attention to detail, creativity, pattern recognition) rather than dwelling solely on limitations.

2. Interactive, Experiential Learning: Through role-play, case studies, simulations, self-reflection, and breakout group work, participants internalize inclusive practices rather than passively absorb content.

3. Cultural Sensitivity & Local Relevance: We adapt materials to the Hong Kong context, incorporating bilingual content, examples from local schools and workplaces, and an awareness of Cantonese/Mandarin cultural nuances.

4. Practical Toolkits & Follow-Up Support: Each workshop includes templates, checklists, accommodation guides, and opportunities for consultative follow-up in your organization.

5. Partnership with Foundations & Community Entities: We collaborate with neurodiversity foundations and disability-inclusion organizations to stay up-to-date, amplify impact, and build networks of practice.

Below are sample modules we often include, but they are flexible and customizable:

• Foundations of Neurodiversity: definitions, history, and key concepts

• Neurodivergent Profiles & Common Challenges: e.g., autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia

• Communication & Sensory Accommodations: how to adapt meetings, noise, lighting, and pacing

• Inclusive Design in Work & Learning Environments

• Leadership & Policy Integration: embedding neurodiversity in HR, learning & development, hiring processes

• Monitoring & Evaluation: how to measure progress and impact
