Laurence Parent, member of the Chair’s advisory committee, was elected as borough councilor for the De Lorimier district during the last municipal election.
The Research Chair and its holder, Professor Mouloud Boukala, had the opportunity to participate in the HACKLAB21 which was held at the Society for Arts and Technology.
Mouloud Boukala, professor and holder of the Chair, as well as Mélanie Millette, professor and member of the Chair, had the opportunity to jointly give two lectures at the Congrès international des sociologues de langue française.
Mouloud Boukala, holder of the Research Chair, gave an interview on June 26 on the program Ça me regarde, a service magazine on disability hosted by Véronique Vézina and Kevin Breton.
The short graduate program Handicap et sourditude : droits et citoyenneté was discussed as part of the program Sans Détour hosted by François Beauregard.
Mouloud Boukala exposes the need for the existence of such a program focusing on the contemporary realities of people with disabilities, deaf or hard of hearing, and focused on the recognition of their rights.
We are pleased to inform you that the new short graduate program Handicap et sourditude : droits et citoyenneté will be officially offered at UQAM in the fall of 2021.
