Κύρια διεθνής κεντρική ομιλία - Dr Ludmila Praslova

Κάθε χρόνο, η ομάδα του ND Pride προσκαλεί δύο τολμηρούς πρωτοπόρους στο Κίνημα της Νευροδιαφορετικότητας, για να μοιραστούν το μήνυμά τους με τη νευροδιαφορετική κοινότητα. Για την έκδοση του 2025, έχουμε προσκαλέσει τον ακτιβιστή Bridgette Hamstead και συγγραφέας Δρ Ludmila Praslova να κάνει αυτές τις "κύριες" κεντρικές ομιλίες.

We are delighted to welcome Dr. Ludmila Praslova as one of the two main keynote speakers for Neurodiversity Pride Day 2025, a global event celebrating neurodivergent identity and community in over 50 countries worldwide.

Dr. Praslova is a renowned expert on neurodiversity and inclusion, bringing decades of experience in organizational psychology, leadership development, and workplace equity. As a professor of graduate organizational psychology at Vanguard University, she has dedicated her career to transforming workplaces to be more inclusive of neurodivergent talent.

She is the author of the groundbreaking book The Canary Code: A Guide to Neurodiversity, Dignity, and Intersectional Belonging at Work, which offers a comprehensive roadmap for creating environments where neurodivergent individuals can thrive. Drawing on her own lived experience as a late-identified autistic individual, Dr. Praslova weaves together research, lived wisdom, and practical strategies to advance authentic inclusion in organizations and communities.

Her keynote address at Neurodiversity Pride Day will bring her passion for systemic change, intersectionality, and dignity to center stage. She reminds us that “neurodiversity is not just an individual difference—it’s a social justice issue.” Her work challenges organizations to move beyond tokenistic diversity efforts and instead foster genuine belonging, where every voice is valued and celebrated.

Through her consulting, teaching, and advocacy, Dr. Praslova has inspired countless individuals and organizations to embrace neurodiversity as a strength. Her keynote will be a powerful call to action, inviting us all to envision workplaces and communities that honor the full humanity and brilliance of neurodivergent people.

The talk will premiere on June 16th 0800 CEST.
