Neurodiversity
Neurodiversity is a term originally coined by Australian sociologist Judy Singer in the late 1990s. It defines that “every human has a unique nervous system with a unique combination of abilities and needs.” Neurodiversity (ND) variations relate to social, communication, learning, attention, environment, sensory and mood; all which impacts on the way an individual interacts with the world around.
NEURO:

DIVERSITY:
The state of being diverse
DIVERSE:
