We turned our experience of neurodiversity into a manga

When Japanese manga artist Eri Nanato was diagnosed with autism and ADHD, she and her husband, Satoshi, decided to create a manga inspired by their experience.

Eri Nanato and her husband Satoshi Kameyama are both manga artists in Tokyo. They’d been married for a year when Eri was diagnosed with autism and ADHD. They then decided to explore what they were going through by creating a manga about their experience.

In North Central Argentina there's a biologist who's devoted her life to rescuing and caring for anteaters. They used to be extinct in that part of the country but thanks to Alicia Delgado and her team, that's all changing. Outlook’s Clayton Conn went to meet ‘Momma Anteater’.
