What is Albinism? Understanding Children with Albinism

Loading player...
The Centre for Neurodiversity (CND) at UJ results from a collaboration between the university, the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) and the EU.

Based at the UJ Soweto Campus, the centre is involved in community engagement work within the larger Soweto area as well as in surrounding communities.

The centre is one of the three centres in the country funded by the DHET and the EU as centres of excellence and national hubs, the other two being Wits – Centre for Deaf Studies, and University of Pretoria – Centre for Visual Impairment Studies.

In underprivileged communities, families usually cannot afford psychological, including neuro-developmental, services.

This centre is expected to meet these needs and allow easy access for teachers as a walk-in service for information, development and support.
