The Disability Anthropology Working Group brings together graduate students, faculty, and other interested scholars whose research relates to the theme of disability in order to build a scholarly community and engage a wider academic public in disability theory and practice. Partnering with the Ethnography Lab, the working group facilitates the creation of a space to critically engage with ethnographic methods and ask how disability challenges many core tenets of anthropological inquiry.
