  • What is Neurodiversity?
    Neurodiversity refers to the concept that neurological differences, such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and others, are a natural part of human diversity and should be respected and valued in the same way as cultural, ethnic, and other forms of diversity. The neurodiversity framework recognizes that these differences are not inherently pathological or negative, but rather are simply variations in how the brain functions and processes information. The aim of the neurodiversity perspective is to shift the focus from trying to "fix" or "cure" these differences to accommodating and supporting individuals with diverse neurological profiles in their personal and professional lives.
