How would you define Neurodiversity?
"[Neurodiversity is] acknowledging the differences in brain function and behavioral traits as part of the normal variation between the human population. The differences in brain function can be an asset for everyone that positively benefits society and different sectors across the world. Especially for neurodiverse individuals, there are a lot of opportunities for everyone if people think about the brain differences as good things."
