Margaux Wosk is an advocate, artist, designer, and entrepreneur who champions disability justice and neurodivergent inclusion. As President of BC People First, Margaux provides leadership to elevate disabled voices and advocate for meaningful change across the province. Their work breaks down barriers, fosters pride, and amplifies underrepresented perspectives through creativity, advocacy, and education. Through their business, Retrophiliac, Margaux designs bold communication tools and products by and for disabled, LGBTQIA2+, and neurodivergent individuals—empowering others to express themselves, reduce stigma, and build community. They also founded the We Belong market, which highlighted neurodivergent and disabled entrepreneurs, and were featured on AMI’s Our Community Episode for their advocacy and small business endeavours.
An emerging leader, Margaux spoke on Parliament Hill at the Disability Without Poverty rally and has collaborated with People First of Canada, McMaster University, and Curiko on accessibility, education, and small business development. Their artwork—featured in York University’s Mental Health Literacy Guide for Autism, to which they also contributed—reflects their commitment to advocacy through creativity. Several of their products are available in the Museum of Vancouver on their open MOV platform. Through every initiative, Margaux remains to be a strong voice for inclusion, pride and important systemic change.
