In solidarity with 2024 International Day Of Persons With Disabilities (IDPD) on the 3rd of December:
Join us for an inspiring episode of the DISCOVER Voices, featuring Eleanor Lisney, a trailblazing advocate, academic, and disabled woman whose life story spans continents and cultures. Eleanor Lisney is a campaigner, co-founder member, public speaker and director of 2 disabled people's organisations. She is an access advisor, and an aspiring creative practitioner.
Eleanor discusses the pivotal moments that led her to embrace mobility aids like an electric wheelchair, her early encounters with disability rights pioneers such as Mike Oliver, and her evolving role as a self-employed advocate. Her experiences highlight the ongoing barriers disabled people face, from inaccessible environments to societal misconceptions, and her commitment to driving change.
This episode provides a unique insight into Eleanor’s advocacy for inclusivity, the lessons learned from navigating international terrains, and her reflections on disability politics, culture, and identity.
Eleanor is Board Director for End Violence and Racism Against ESEA Communities (EVR), for more information on EVR go to their website: https://evresea.com/
