Inclusive Fieldwork & Expedition Practice

"A workshop exploring the inclusion of disabled people
in fieldwork and expeditions"

Wednesday, 6th November 2002 at RGS-IBG, London SW7 2AR

This one-day interactive workshop brings together organisations and
individuals interested in widening the opportunities for disabled students
and young people in fieldwork and expeditions.

The emphasis of the day will be on action planning and how to turn the dream
of full inclusion into reality. Speakers and case studies will provide
inspiration and practical support to enable you to turn theory into
practice.

It aims to complement work begun by the Higher Education Funding Council for
England (HEFCE) by bringing together people with a broad range of insights
and approaches, thus enabling creative lateral learning.

Open to all interested parties. More Information and a booking form please
go to:- www.rgs.org/inclusive or email: [email protected]
