Breaking barriers for those with hidden disabilities
By Isabel Carrera Zamanillo
Dec. 2022

Chronic illnesses, mental health issues, and other hidden disabilities can
be debilitating, especially in combination with stigmatization and lack of
proper accommodations. Breaking barriers in academic systems for those with
hidden disabilities demands that personal, institutional and organizational
ableist biases are overcome, writes Isabel Carrera Zamanillo.
