SUMMARY:International Keynotes: Emma McNally
DESCRIPTION:Main International Keynote #1: Emma McNally – “Breaking the Shame in a Imperfect World”\nAnnual tradition of Neurodiversity Pride Day \nWe are honoured to welcome Emma McNally as one of the two main international keynote speakers for Neurodiversity Pride Day 2026. Each year we invite 2 daring pioneers to share their message with the neurodivergent community. See the video at the bottom of this event post. For earlier keynotes\, you can watch some of the best ones on the Replay page. \nEmma McNally is the CEO of Tourettes Action\, a keynote speaker\, neurodiversity educator\, storyteller and author. Through her leadership\, advocacy and public voice\, Emma has helped bring greater visibility to Tourette Syndrome\, challenge harmful misconceptions\, and strengthen the call for better understanding\, diagnosis\, treatment and support. For the first time\, a representative of the Tourettian peoples\, are asked for the “main”. Emma is a compassionate hero\, and her voice and message\, have gotten to be particularly important this year. \nEmma’s work speaks strongly to the spirit of Neurodiversity Pride Day: moving away from shame\, mockery\, isolation and misunderstanding\, and toward dignity\, recognition\, community and care. In a world where many people with Tourette Syndrome and other neurodivergent experiences are still misrepresented or treated as a punchline\, Emma’s voice helps remind us that education\, compassion and acceptance are not soft ideas – they are necessary forms of social change. \nAcross her public work\, Emma invites people to look beyond stereotypes and to understand the real lives\, strengths\, challenges and humanity of people with Tourette Syndrome. Her work resonates with the wider purpose of Neurodiversity Pride Day: creating a world where neurodivergent people do not have to hide\, shrink themselves\, or carry the burden of other people’s ignorance. \nThis keynote is a annual part of the global Neurodiversity Pride Day programme: a celebration created by and for neurodivergent people\, and joined by allies\, organisations\, schools\, workplaces\, cities and communities around the world. \nJoin us for this main keynote with Emma McNally\, and be part of a global day of neurodivergent pride\, visibility and connection. The spoken language will be English. The talk will premiere on this page at exactly 10.00 CEST June 16th. If you cannot ‘start the video’ it means the event has not started yet.

SUMMARY:Neurodance Preparty
DESCRIPTION:Neurodance Preparty – Moonwyrm on Twitch\nSunday 14 June 2026 | 2:00-4:00 PM Central US time / 21:00-23:00 CEST | Online: \nJoin the Neurodance Preparty here \nLanguage: Mostly music; chat language may vary \nNeurodance Preparty is a two-hour online music session with Moonwyrm\, streamed live on Twitch as part of the build-up to Neurodiversity Pride Day 2026. \nThis preparty is a smaller\, simpler version of the World Neurodance: one DJ\, one Twitch channel\, two hours of music\, movement and neurodivergent joy. It is a chance to warm up for ND Pride Week\, test the stream together\, and enjoy a shared online dance moment before the full Neurodance World DJ Marathon begins on Neurodiversity Pride Day. \nNeurodance is about dancing in your own way. You can dance wildly\, gently\, visibly\, quietly\, with others\, alone in your room\, seated\, stimming\, listening\, resting\, or simply being present with the music. There is no correct way to join. The point is not performance. The point is connection\, rhythm\, movement\, joy and the freedom to celebrate neurodivergent pride in a way that fits your body and your brain. \nThis preparty is also a live technical test for the official Neurodance page. During the session\, visitors can try the embedded Twitch player\, the chat preview\, the readable chat popout\, and the scroll-safe mini-player. If everything works well during this preparty\, the same setup will support the full Neurodance World DJ Marathon. \nMoonwyrm has played an important role in growing Neurodance into a global online celebration. Since 2023\, Moonwyrm\, together with Sir_no0ob and the Wyrmling community\, has helped shape the ND Pride Raid Train into a joyful international gathering of neurodivergent DJs\, dancers and listeners across time zones. \nThis event connects strongly with Neurodiversity Pride Day because pride does not always need a stage or a speech. Sometimes pride is music. Sometimes it is movement. Sometimes it is letting your body respond in the way it wants to. Sometimes it is joining a chat\, opening a stream\, or dancing privately while knowing that others around the world are celebrating too. \nProgramme\n\n14 June 2026: Neurodance Preparty\nDuration: 2-hour Twitch set\nDJ / channel: Moonwyrm\nFormat: live online music stream with Twitch chat\n\nTimezone guide\n\nCentral US time / CDT: Sunday 14 June\, 2:00-4:00 PM\nUTC: Sunday 14 June\, 19:00-21:00\nAmsterdam / CEST: Sunday 14 June\, 21:00-23:00\nNew York / EDT: Sunday 14 June\, 3:00-5:00 PM\nKyiv / EEST: Sunday 14 June\, 22:00-00:00\nHong Kong / HKT: Monday 15 June\, 03:00-05:00\nAuckland / NZST: Monday 15 June\, 07:00-09:00\n\nPractical information\n\nEvent: Neurodance Preparty\nDJ / streamer: Moonwyrm\nDate: Sunday 14 June 2026\nTime: 2:00-4:00 PM Central US time / 21:00-23:00 CEST\nLocation: online\nPlatform: Twitch\nChannel: @moonwyrm\nPart of: Neurodance / Neurodiversity Pride Day 2026\nOrganiser: Neurodiversity Pride Day / Neurodance team\n\nWhat to expect\n\nA two-hour online Neurodance preparty with Moonwyrm\nMusic\, movement\, chat and neurodivergent joy\nA low-pressure way to join from home\, alone or with others\nA chance to test the Twitch player\, chat popout and mini-player setup\nA warm-up moment before the full World Neurodance 2026 programme\nFreedom to dance\, stim\, listen\, rest or participate in your own way\n\nThis event may be especially relevant for neurodivergent people\, Twitch communities\, music lovers\, dancers\, stimmers\, gamers\, ND Pride supporters\, and anyone looking for an online\, movement-based way to warm up for Neurodiversity Pride Day. \nJoin the Neurodance Preparty here \nVisit the World Neurodance 2026 page here

SUMMARY:Understanding ADHD in Attorneys
DESCRIPTION:Friday 12 June 2026 | 12:00 – 13:30 ET | Online via Zoom \nUnderstanding ADHD in Attorneys is an online presentation by the Indiana State Bar Association\, focused on ADHD in the legal profession and the many ways it can shape professional life\, wellbeing\, self-understanding and mental health. \nThe session explores why there is a missed generation of women\, and sometimes men\, who were not diagnosed with ADHD earlier in life. For many professionals\, ADHD may only become visible later\, after years of anxiety\, depression\, burnout\, overwhelm\, self-doubt\, or the feeling of working much harder than others to meet the same expectations. \nThis event is especially relevant for attorneys\, legal professionals\, law students\, colleagues\, friends and family members who want to better understand ADHD in adulthood. It may also be meaningful for people who have ADHD\, people who think they may have ADHD\, and people who want to support ADHD peers with more knowledge and compassion. \nThe legal profession can be demanding\, deadline-driven and high-pressure. For ADHD attorneys\, this may create both challenges and hidden strengths: intense focus\, fast associative thinking\, creativity\, responsiveness in crisis\, and strong problem-solving skills\, alongside possible struggles with time management\, executive functioning\, emotional regulation\, anxiety\, or consistency under pressure. \nBy creating space to discuss ADHD openly in the context of legal work\, this session contributes to a wider movement toward professional environments where neurodivergent people are better understood\, supported and valued. \nPractical information\n\nEvent: Understanding ADHD in Attorneys\nDate: Friday 12 June 2026\nTime: 12:00 – 13:30 ET\nLocation: Online via Zoom\nOrganiser: Indiana State Bar Association\nAudience: attorneys\, legal professionals\, law students\, ADHD adults\, colleagues and supporters\n\nWhat to expect\n\nA professional education session about ADHD in attorneys\nAttention to missed and late diagnosis\, especially among women\nDiscussion of the links between ADHD\, anxiety\, depression and related experiences\nInformation about diagnosis and support options\nA workplace-relevant lens on neurodiversity\, wellbeing and professional sustainability\n\nThis event may be especially relevant for people interested in neurodiversity at work\, ADHD in adulthood\, legal wellbeing\, professional inclusion\, late diagnosis\, women with ADHD\, and the creation of workplaces where people do not have to struggle silently or mask their way through professional life. \nView the event and registration information here \nThis event has been suggested as a relevant contribution to the Neurodiversity Pride Week programme by the community.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Neurodiversity
DESCRIPTION:Thursday 11 June 2026 | 14:00 – 16:00 EDT / Atlanta time | Online via Zoom \nIntroduction to Neurodiversity is an online workplace training hosted by Emory University’s Workplace Culture and Belonging Team. The session introduces employees to neurodiversity and explores how workplaces can better understand\, embrace and uplift the strengths and experiences of neurodivergent people. \nThe training is informed by the experiences of neurodiverse employees at Emory University. It gives participants an opportunity to learn more about neurodiversity in the workplace\, reflect on the role every employee can play in creating inclusion\, and discuss practical strategies for supporting both neurodivergent and neurotypical colleagues. \nThis event connects well with Neurodiversity Pride Week because it focuses on changing workplace culture from the inside. Pride is not only about public celebration; it is also about building everyday environments where people do not have to mask\, hide or explain the way their minds work before they are treated with respect. \nBy introducing neurodiversity in a workplace learning context\, this session supports a broader shift from awareness to action: helping colleagues better understand cognitive differences\, recognise strengths\, reduce barriers\, and contribute to a more inclusive professional community. \nPractical information\n\nEvent: Introduction to Neurodiversity\nDate: Thursday 11 June 2026\nTime: 14:00 – 16:00 EDT / Atlanta time\nLocation: Online via Zoom\nOrganiser: Emory University Workplace Culture and Belonging Team\nSpeaker / presenter: Quinn Foster\nAudience: Emory University faculty and staff\nCost: free\n\nWhat to expect\n\nAn introductory training on neurodiversity in the workplace\nDiscussion of how neurodivergent and neurotypical employees can be supported\nStrategies to understand\, embrace and uplift neurodivergent strengths and experiences\nReflection on the role of employees in creating inclusive workplace culture\nA workplace-focused contribution to the wider conversation around neurodiversity\, belonging and dignity\n\nThis event may be especially relevant for employees\, managers\, HR professionals\, workplace culture teams\, inclusion leads\, allies\, neurodivergent staff members\, and anyone interested in creating professional environments where different ways of thinking\, communicating and working are understood and valued. \nView the event information here \nThis event has been suggested as a relevant contribution to the Neurodiversity Pride Week programme by the community.

SUMMARY:Neurodivergent Scholars' Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Thursday 11 June 2026 | 11:45 – 12:45 PDT / Los Angeles time | Online \nNeurodivergent Scholars’ Meeting is an online gathering hosted by Dr Emma Brodzinski\, created as a space for neurodivergent scholars to come together\, share experiences\, and explore strategies for navigating PhD life. \nDoing a PhD can be demanding for anyone\, but neurodivergent scholars may face additional challenges in academic systems that are often built around narrow expectations of productivity\, communication\, focus\, planning\, networking\, supervision and self-management. This meeting offers a more understanding space to discuss those realities without needing to mask or pretend that academia is always easy to navigate. \nThe session invites participants to explore practical tips\, strategies and peer knowledge around doctoral research as a neurodivergent person. It may include reflection on structure\, energy\, executive functioning\, confidence\, motivation\, supervision\, academic pressure\, isolation\, overwhelm and the search for ways of working that are more sustainable. \nThis event connects strongly with Neurodiversity Pride Week because pride is not only about celebration in public spaces. It is also about building supportive spaces within universities\, research communities and academic life\, where neurodivergent people can be recognised as scholars\, thinkers\, researchers and knowledge-makers in their own right. \nPractical information\n\nEvent: Neurodivergent Scholars’ Meeting\nDate: Thursday 11 June 2026\nTime: 11:45 – 12:45 PDT / Los Angeles time\nLocation: Online\nPlatform: Eventbrite / online meeting\nHost: Dr Emma Brodzinski\nAudience: neurodivergent PhD researchers\, doctoral students\, early-career researchers\, and people interested in neurodivergent experiences in academia\nCost: free\n\nWhat to expect\n\nAn online meeting for neurodivergent scholars\nSpace to explore strategies and tips for navigating the PhD\nPeer reflection around academic life\, research and support\nA chance to connect with others who understand neurodivergent experiences in higher education\nA supportive academic space during Neurodiversity Pride Week\n\nThis event may be especially relevant for neurodivergent PhD researchers\, postgraduate students\, academic staff\, supervisors\, research support professionals\, disability support teams\, and anyone interested in making academia more accessible\, humane and neuro-affirming. \nView the event and registration information here \nThis event has been suggested as a relevant contribution to the Neurodiversity Pride Week programme by the community.
