Dr. Chloe Farahar is an Associate Lecturer in Psychology and a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Kent's School of Arts. Their work focuses on neurodiversity advocacy, Autistic well-being, and inclusive education. They co-founded the Autistic Discovery Journey, a post-diagnostic support program, and developed the Aucademy platform to educate Autistic and non-Autistic learners. Farahar is a key member of the ATTUNE project, an interdisciplinary initiative funded by the Medical Research Council, Arts and Humanities Research Council, and Economic and Social Research Council. This project investigates adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) among neurodivergent youth and designs preventive arts/digital interventions. Their research also addresses mental health stigma reduction, neurodivergent-inclusive teaching, and participatory creative methods with young neurodivergent populations.
