“Neurodiversity Celebration Week (13 – 19 March) is a worldwide initiative that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences. It aims to transform how neurodivergent individuals are perceived and supported by providing schools, universities, and organisations with the opportunity to recognise the many talents and advantages of being neurodivergent, while creating more inclusive and equitable cultures that celebrate differences and empower every individual.” Neurodiversity Celebration Week.

Policy
The Neurodiversity Policy links closely to the ambitions of the Inclusive theme of Aberdeen 2040 and seeks to contribute to raising awareness of neurodivergence, challenge negative stereotypical views and ensure that teaching, learning, research, and employment practices at the University are accessible to individuals who are neurodiverse.
