This session will emphasise the benefits of working with disabled PGRs and highlight ways in which supervisors can help reduce and challenge institutional barriers. Drawing on data from our own and sector wide research, we will outline systemic barriers that cause exclusion and offer some guidance on workarounds from our own experiences. We encourage discussion and sharing of supportive supervision practices amongst workshop participants.

This session is part of the Northern PGR Network (NPGRN) Supervisor Development Programme, a collaboration between four ESRC-funding Doctoral Training Partnerships. It is open to all PGR Supervisors in the social sciences across the network. The programme offers bitesize (one hour), engaging sessions aimed at opening up dialogues and fostering and developing reflective practice. It also seeks to facilitate peer-to-peer exchange, learning and support and is led and informed by research evidence and Supervisor experiences.
