This module explores Pathological Demand Avoidance or Pervasive Drive for Autonomy (PDA) and its impact in aquatic environments. Learners examine PDA as part of the broader neurodiversity spectrum, recognising core characteristics and how demands can affect participants.
Practical strategies focus on reframing language, creating demand-free time, and designing experiences that promote engagement, autonomy, confidence, and inclusive participation that everyone can benefit everyone.
