What is the true meaning of belonging? And, how does learning about the research on loneliness, isolation, and the troubled history of inclusion in Canada—help us better define true belonging?

In this session, we explore How Does Learning Happen?’s BELONGING Foundation from the perspective of inclusivity and nurturing neurodivergent ways of being. Together, we will examine concepts such as the role of ‘ableism’ in shaping our practice; how to ‘presume competence’ for all children; what it means to create spaces and relationships with children that honour neurodivergence and true belonging, and much more.
