International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2026
Each year, December 3 is observed as the United Nations International Day of Persons with Disabilities.
It is an opportunity for the Langara College community to celebrate persons with disabilities and their contributions to our communities, and to affirm that they deserve equitable treatment, dignity, opportunity, and inclusion.
The day promotes awareness of disability issues, amplifies pride in disability identity, and builds support for disability rights, wellbeing, and inclusion.
Join us on December 3
Please join us to honour the day and celebrate the end of the semester together.
- Date: December 3, 2026
- Time: 11:30 am – 1:30 pm
- Location: A Building Foyer
The event will open with remarks from employee and student speakers, followed by activities and information tables hosted by departments across the College. And, to wrap up the semester in good company, we will have a hot chocolate bar, where you can top your drink with your choice of garnishes, like sprinkles, candy canes, marshmallows, and whipped cream.
All employees and students are welcome to drop in for part or all of the event.
