Blindspot
This coming January 29, PUP JME will be having a webinar called “BLINDSPOT: Exposing Aptitude, Magnifying Opportunities.” It aims to promote diversity and inclusivity among PWDs and to help enlighten marketing students to serve and reach PWDs from a marketing perspective.
Disability inclusion means providing equal rights and opportunities to people with limited capacity. The main goal of this advocacy campaign is to uplift the value and relevance of reaching out to diverse people, especially those marketing students with disabilities.
Blindspot also aims to start the conversation about inclusivity, particularly in the marketing industry. It also seeks to recognize the PWD community as a market, discover solutions on how to tap them as a market, and open up more opportunities for the community.
This 4-hour live stream session will feature different activities, including the following:
- Q&A with successful PWD entrepreneurs, marketing professionals, and PWD-friendly brands.
- Commercial Making Competition featuring partner brands catering to the PWD market.
- Outreach activity for PWDs and their children.
- Live sign language translation.
