LEXINGTON, Ky. (Feb. 5, 2021) — The Human Development Institute (HDI) has developed a series of dynamic one-hour lecture and seminar style presentations available at the University of Kentucky. These presentations cover an array of topics that include foundational lectures on disability, advocacy, health, employment, universal design and assistive technology.

While the content is expansive, the common theme is around building inclusive communities. Presenters are people with disabilities, family members of people with disabilities and other interdisciplinary experts.

Visit https://hdi.uky.edu/university-lecture-series to review the titles and descriptions of presentations included in the series. 

To schedule a presentation for your class in the 2021 Spring semester, contact Caroline Gooden at cjgood2@uky.edu.
