Advocacy in action: a neurodivergent perspective on driving change

Join UoB alumna and multi-award-winning neurodivergent entrepreneur Iveta Pudilova for a webinar exploring the power and challenges of advocacy. Drawing on real-life examples from her journey (from growing up non-verbal to founding the UK’s leading neurodiversity training provider), Iveta will share insights into how meaningful change is made and maintained.

In this session, Iveta will guide attendees through key themes including:

• Why advocacy matters and why it sometimes stalls
• Principles for constructive advocacy
• Navigating disagreement
• Making change and sustaining momentum

The webinar will include live polls to encourage student participation and a Q&A to deepen the conversation.

Whether you are an aspiring advocate, a curious ally, or someone navigating your own journey, this session offers practical tools and inspiration to support inclusive change.
