Hilary Stace

Hilary Stace has a long involvement with autism and advocacy issues. She researched New Zealand autism policy for her 2011 PhD and found that complex, often contradictory understandings of autism and approaches signalled that autism could be considered a wicked policy problem.

Current research interests include disability, particularly autism and intellectual impairment, ethics (history, policy etc), New Zealand history, particularly disability, education, women, activism, politics etc.
