Accessibility and intersectionality

An engaging and informative chat with Priyanca D'Souza, a senior user researcher with multiple access needs. 

We discuss dyscalculia, number anxiety, mental health and the impact of assistive technology on understanding numbers.  

We also talk about intersectionality and the complexities of managing multiple access needs and common service barriers.

"We can't just ignore information about people because it's inconvenient or makes them too messy or complex. People are complex." Priyanca
