Cafe Controversial. Disability and the "normal" human: examining the history
-

This is a past event

Modern people invented the term "disability". But did we invent the idea of care for the vulnerable?

Join Dr Brian Brock and Professor John Swinton as they examine the track record of the west over the last 2000 years with regards attitudes and actions towards people with disabilities and what we might learn from this for today’s approaches.

This event is part of the Being Human Festival, which runs 15 - 23 November. To visit the full programme please visit www.abdn.ac.uk/engage/beinghuman
