ABSTRACT
This study draws on an analysis of a range of texts to trace the learning ecologies which support disability-inclusive teaching, research, administration, and industry practice. As a means to increase our disciplinary and institutional capacity to foster inclusion, I seek to understand the processes through which disability-inclusive designers, environments, and institutions come to be.
