Neurodiversity can be described as the diversity or variation of cognitive functioning in humans.

It’s also used to represent a fast-growing sub-category of organisational diversity and inclusion that seeks to embrace and maximise the talents of people who think differently.

Beyond looking at the benefits and considerations for organisations in creating inclusive workplaces, we also look to the question –is learning inclusive for neurodiverse groups? What might not make it inclusive, and how we can design experiences that are accessible and effective for all?

This report looks at how organisations can embrace neurodiversity as part of the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) agenda, and incorporate strategies to educate employees and address the potential bias that exists within our societies and organisations.
