Writing & Creating for Community: Accessibilize Your Research

Note: These workshops are open to anyone, including students and community members. We will adapt the discussion to the make-up of the room and encourage participation from diverse disciplines and backgrounds.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While there has been movement from some academic circles to make research more inclusive and community-driven, academia remains largely an ivory tower. The type of language and formatting used in many academic research papers is often obscure to those outside the university bubble and acts as a barrier that keeps knowledge contained to largely privileged circles.
We approach knowledge as something that should be accessible to all. Together, we’ll discuss different strategies and formats for presenting research and making it useful in a community context. This includes an exploration of basic accessibility best-practices for diverse print, visual and digital compositions.
We recognize that the line between university and community can be fluid, and that students face particular challenges when it comes to balancing accessibility considerations with sometimes rigid course requirements. These challenges will be addressed in the workshop and we particularly welcome contributions from those who have found their voices invalidated or marginalized due to their class, racial, ethnic or other background.
