Autistic joy – the answer to poor mental health

On the Mental Health Awareness Day we announce the talk by Elliot Wasselle about Autistic Joy.

Presenting: Experiences of Autistic Joy – findings from a participatory research project

Elliot is an autistic researcher currently studying for a Masters degree in Autism at University of Birmingham. His academic interests include autistic joy, connections with nature and environmental activism, autistic spirituality, participatory research methods, Posthumanist theory, rapidly becoming the whole world. He is spouse, parent and companion animal in a 100% neurodivergent household and a trustee of neurodivergent led charity Autistic Girls Network. Elliot is so into autistic joy that he actually gets autistic joy from studying autistic joy. Mean people make Elliot work as an accountant when he could be doing things like this.

The talk tooke place on Zoom on 23 October at 7 pm.
