NORMAN KUNC & EMMA VAN DER KLIFT
Norman and Emma have spent the last 25 years working to ensure that people with disabilities are able to take their rightful place in schools, workplaces, and communities.
Although they are well known advocates within the disability rights community, they prefer to think of themselves as modern day storytellers, continuing the long held tradition of using humour and narrative to initiate self-reflection and social change. |
