El autismo no incluye un manual de instrucciones | Alejandro Gayol | TEDxLeon
¿Y si todo lo que creías saber sobre el autismo estuviera incompleto? Es hora de dejar atrás los prejuicios y la victimización para hablar de lo que realmente significa "incluir", porque quizá lo raro no es el autismo, sino la forma en que lo miramos. Joven escritor y divulgador decidido a transformar la forma en que la sociedad entiende el autismo. Desde pequeño, ha convivido con este rasgo de su identidad y ha aprendido a verlo no como una limitación, sino como una perspectiva única desde la que observar el mundo. Esa experiencia personal se ha convertido en el motor de su labor: inspirar, educar y conectar con quienes aún ven el autismo desde el desconocimiento o los prejuicios.Aborda la neurodivergencia como una riqueza que merece ser reconocida.
Alejandro no solo quiere a hablar de autismo. Quiere a hablarnos de lo que ocurre cuando alguien se atreve a compartir su historia y romper el silencio que muchas veces rodea a la neurodiversidad, porque, cuando una voz se alza con autenticidad, muchas otras encuentran el valor de hacerse escuchar.
