Welcome to the Inclusive Voices Podcast! 

In this episode, host Jane Rexworthy engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Kavya Mukhija, a passionate disability rights advocate and current Masters student in Disability Design and Innovation at University College London. 

Together, they delve into the complexities of true workplace inclusion, moving beyond mere accessibility checklists to address the unseen barriers that many individuals with disabilities face. 

Kavya shares her powerful insights on why disability inclusion is a "wicked problem," intricately linked to societal issues like poverty and ableism. With inspiring examples of organisations that are getting it right and a call for change that includes not only disabled employees but their caregivers as well, this episode is a clarion call for a more equitable and understanding workplace. 

Tune in as we explore how small, actionable steps can lead to meaningful systemic change in the pursuit of a truly inclusive future.
