Through the Lens: Being Blind in a Sighted World

Led by activist and PhD student, Laura Bulk, this workshop explores the barriers, challenges and nuances of living with a visual disability in a sighted world.

Under Bulk’s creative direction, participants will learn how to implement small changes that make big differences in supporting people with visual impairments and apply similar actions to other areas of disability and accessibility.

The Equity & Inclusion Office is thrilled to present Through the Lens, a series of exciting workshops exploring how different identities navigate and experience UBC while offering practical ideas on creating a more inclusive campus.

Led by experienced community leaders, Through the Lens aims to provoke meaningful conversations on issues of identity, diversity, equity and inclusion. Each workshop provides an opportunity to learn, connect and join a network of allies across campus through story-telling, statistics and other resources.
