On behalf of the federal government, Innovation 7 has been hired to conduct research into the potential for developing a First Nations Accessibility Assessor Training Program.
Innovation 7 is organizing discussion circles with perspective holders from across Canada to discuss the potential of developing such a program and what key areas of focus should be included. The voices and stories of those with lived experience are important to understand the accessibility barriers and opportunities to improve the inclusion of First Nations people in their communities.
Proposed areas of discussion include:
- Opportunities and challenges faced in communities by members with restricted accessibility.
- Need for First Nations-led accessibility assessments to help identify accessibility barriers in First Nation communities.
- Key areas that should be included in a First Nations accessibility assessment program.
- Prioritizing First Nations adult learning principles that should guide the design and delivery of the program.
