While at the Speech Pathology Australia National Conference in Hobart, I launched the special issue of the International Journal of Speech-Language Pathology on Communication, Swallowing, and the Sustainable Development Goals at the plenary session on Wednesday morning.
We took photographs of the authors and the SPA delegates so that we could show their support when we take this special issue to the United Nations.
I conducted a 1.5 hour workshop that included a video from co-guest editor Julie Marshall, and guest presentations from Bronwyn Hemsely, Fiona Given, Amy Freeman-Sanderson, and others.
I also met with a range of the authors to thank them for their excellent work with people who experience communication and swallowing disability.
