CREDI research seminar "I just want to live my life, I don't want to make this my identity." On the ambivalences of chronic illness as invisible diversity
In this seminar with the Centre for Research in Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (CREDI), Alexander Fleischmann and Alyson Meister, IMD Lausanne, Switzerland will give first insights into an ongoing qualitative empirical study on how individuals navigate chronic illnesses in the context of work.
The presentation will highlight the fluid and ever-changing face of chronic illness. It will also reflect on the barriers that the chronic illness imposes physically and mentally, as well as the barriers that appear in workplaces and with colleagues that are not prepared to accommodate for invisible diversities and conditions that change over time.
All welcome.
