DisabledGo partners with NUS to improve accessibility
The NUS disabled students’ campaign is pleased to announce a partnership with DisabledGo, a progressive and accessible organisation that aims to improve information, accessibility and conditions for disabled students.
For years, many disabled students have struggled to engage in union activities and democracy. In addition, they have often found their courses inaccessible and their campuses problematic.
NUS believes the partnership with DisabledGo is important for promoting disabled students’ rights and building capacity for students’ unions especially the importance of students’ unions activity.
How the information is made available to NUS students officers
There are two main methods DisabledGo use to provide information
- Education For All
DisabledGo will distribute 700 copies of ‘Education For All’ flyers to students’ officers. The aim of the Education For All project is to promote this information to disabled students at your institution and encourage your institution to participate in the DisabledGo project and to visit their award-winning website - www.disabledgo.info. This website has many accessibility features. - One-stop shop of information
Participants are able to quickly find the information to a whole range of facilities and services at a one-stop shop for information on www.disabledgo.info. This information can be accessed via university/colleges websites or students’ union links.
For further information, please contact DisabledGo on www.disabledGo.info.
