Learning Journeys – Europe Beyond Access

arts and disability, curatorship

Europe Beyond Access’ Learning Journeys are a digital series of toolkits and educational resources specifically for disabled artists, producers and promoters, and funders and policymakers.

These Learning Journeys include a series of new films, discussions, podcasts, creative tasks, reports and more to support professional development. Films are hosted on YouTube and many have translated subtitles in Dutch, German, Greek, Polish, Serbian and Swedish. Transcripts are also available for screen-readers.

I’ve had a pleasure to be co-curator of Learning Journeys.

The Europe Beyond Access Learning Journeys have at their heart a series of discussions, debates, provocations, interviews and practical tasks all recorded during an intensive week of content development in London in October 2022. The Learning Journey curators, Filip Pawlak and Ben Evans, would like to thank everyone who contributed to this unique week of exchange of ideas.
