Helen Meekosha is an Associate Professor at the University of New South Wales, Australia. Helen has opened up the field in the gendered relations of disability. Her work has broken new ground in setting disability in a context of neoliberalism and globalization, arguing the case for an examination of global North/ South relations that affect the incidence and production of disability. Karen Soldatic is a Lecturer at the University of New South Wales, Australia. Karen is an international disability scholar who has extensive experience within the field of international development in conflict zones. Her work brings together this rich field work engagement to theoretically inform conceptual understandings of disability in the Global South.
