Abstract
In this presentation, I will discuss my role as principal investigator of the Canadian Accessible Musical Instruments Network (CAMIN), a project funded by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) Partnership Development Grant. I will commence the presentation by situating the need for this research within the field of music education and providing examples of organizations that practice a disability-led model of community music making. Following, I will detail how CAMIN came to be, its members, and its aspirations. Finally, I will present examples of projects undertaken under the umbrella of CAMIN by some of its members and their implications for music teaching and learning.
