Last Friday, we held our first Train-the-Trainer session as part of our AI Co-Creation Workshop Series journey! This session brought together a passionate group of facilitators committed to fostering a more inclusive and collaborative environment for our participants for the workshops including persons with disabilities (PwDs). Through this workshop, our facilitators gained insights into: ✅ Creating accessible and inclusive spaces for persons with disabilities. ✅ Understanding effective communication techniques and disability etiquette. ✅ Leveraging tools and strategies to guide participants in co-creating impactful projects. This marks an exciting milestone as we prepare for our AI Co-Creation Workshop happening in January 2025. Together, we’re building an inclusive community where creativity and technology empower everyone to shine. Interested in joining us? This January, we invite you to be part of this transformative journey. Whether you’re a creative professional, a student, or a community member, come and join us to create meaningful stories and make a difference!

Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities. A day to celebrate the growing community of disabled people around the world. One of those communities is #neurodiversity, now 1 in 7 globally. A new research study by EY, shares how technology is changing experience for neurodiverse in the workplace. The results, while early are overwhelming. 91% saw copilot and AI as a game-changing assistive tool, and 85% believe it creates a more inclusive workplace. Kayla Patterson gave a beautiful example of how this is making a difference in her life as a neurodiverse marketeer. Grateful to her, to all those with neurodiversity and disabilities who work every day to build and use products. And the EY team, for helping us to understand how we can continue to do more to empower with #AI and #Accessibility. Happy IDPD! Onwards.

Now this new research from EY is interesting and well worth a read for any employer. EY heard from 300 employees who identify as disabled or #neurodivergent, in organizations around the world. It illustrates how AI, is helping people with disability in the workplace, participate more fully and further thrive in their jobs. It’s helping to create a more inclusive workplace. #Copilot was described by some respondents as a “game-changer” and you’ll see from the powerful stories shared with the research team, how these changes have been transformative for them. A worthwhile read as we mark #InternationalDayOfPersonsWithDisabilities this week. #IDPD2024

Fantastic to mark the recent International Day of Persons with Disabilities with an EY-Microsoft collaboration. This joint study on how AI can significantly reduce barriers for people with disabilities and/or neurodivergence, shows how inclusion and personal fulfilment can be transformed with Microsoft 365 Copilot.
