History UK’s Disability and History project (co-funded by the Royal Historical Society) is an important opportunity to better understand experiences of disabled, chronically ill, D/deaf, blind/partially sighted and neurodivergent historians and to explore the teaching and studying of disability history in UK Higher Education.
Our survey (deadline for responses: 8 November 2024) is aimed at all staff in history or history-related units in Higher Education (including early career historians whether or not currently employed in HE) and all history students, whether they identify as disabled or non-disabled.
The survey will contribute to the History UK Disability and History Report. The report will provide an evidence base for recommendations, which we hope can enhance experiences in HE and showcase examples of good practice.
Please share the survey widely as every response matters.
