The Knowledge Collective - Learning Peer Group Expression of Interest

Your curiosity led you here. Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in joining our online learning community for people with physical disabilities.
Whether you have always lived with physical disability, or have recently acquired disability, The Knowledge Collective invites you to be yourself, to share your experiences, knowledge and insights, enhance personal and professional growth, solve problems together, and build collective wisdom with others who truly understand your journey.

Through The Knowledge Collective you will be empowered with knowledge from the group’s life experience, engaging discussions, skill development, relevant resources, and guest experts.

We aim for you to gain confidence, build connections, and stay informed, all of this whilst enhancing both your personal and professional growth.
