Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proposant un panorama clair et synthétique des études consacrées au handicap, ce livre souligne à la fois les situations concrètes qu'il recouvre et ses enjeux politiques et sociaux. Il pose ainsi les bases d'une meilleure prise en considération des personnes handicapées et des questions contemporaines liées au handicap. Comment le champ du handicap s'est-il historiquement et socialement construit dans les sociétés occidentales ? Quel type d'expériences le handicap produit-il ? Quelles mobilisations suscite-t-il ? Quel type de recherches et quels courants de pensées recouvrent les disability studies ? Quels traitements politiques les sociétés donnent-elles aux personnes dites handicapées ? Comment celles-ci vivent-elles aujourd'hui à l'école, au travail, en famille, en milieu "ordinaire" ou en institutions spécialisées ? Voici quelques-unes des nombreuses questions que se posent tous ceux qui s'intéressent au handicap et que cet ouvrage propose d'éclairer. Depuis une quarantaine d'années, le handicap est en effet devenu un objet d'études à part entière des sciences humaines et sociales, de la sociologie en particulier. Les recherches ont permis de mieux comprendre l'objet socio-politique "handicap" et d'en cerner les contours instables. Mais elles ont aussi ouvert de nouvelles pistes et catégories d'analyse pour penser nos sociétés contemporaines à l'épreuve de la diversité. Elles montrent que la fonctionnalité des corps et des esprits touche au coeur des questions de justice sociale. Ce manuel propose un panorama clair et synthétique des études consacrées au handicap en soulignant à la fois les situations concrètes qu'il recouvre et ses enjeux politiques et sociaux. Pour les étudiants, chercheurs et enseignants en sociologie, anthropologie, sciences sociales, santé publique et ceux des professions (para)médicales et médicosociales.

L'assignation matinale et originaire étant de construire des véhicules juridiques psychologiques, socio-antropologiques et portiques afin a amorcer un changement positit et une protection durable des oS. ainsi que des protocoles coutumiers pour leu valorisation dans les cultures et traditions atricaines This publication is certainly the first major thematic and critical synthesis on the condition of socially vulnerable persons (PSV) in Africa. An excellent line-up of 40 experts and institutions from different countries of the continent is making an effort to understand this phenomenon, which has become worrying, through a complex, retrospective, factual, current, quantified, punctual, prospective and relatively exhaustive analytical inventory. The various contributions are accompanied by strong recommendations that challenge the holders of issues for their application in a process of co-construction for an active citizenship of transformation. It is a document of advocacy/indictment and lobbying in favor of the development, protection and improvement of the social conditions of the elderly and persons with disabilities in Africa in terms of health, food, housing, environment, social protection, income maintenance, employment and education, given their increasing numbers in relative and absolute terms. The issue of socially vulnerable people is thus brought to the forefront of important, if not permanent, political-social and scientific concerns. It is the subject of recurrent investigations and reflections within the special mechanism of the African Union, the Working Group on Elderly Persons and Persons with Disabilities of the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights. The initial assignment is to build legal, psychological, socio-anthropological and political vehicles in order to initiate positive change and sustainable protection of VHPs, as well as customary protocols for their valorization in African cultures and traditions.

Download or read book Management of Accessibility for Handicapped Students in Higher Education written by United States. Department of Education and published by National Association of College & University Business Office. This book was released on 1981 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compendium of four mini-projects carried out by a special task force of the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) addresses policy and management issues related to providing accessibility to handicapped students in higher education. Topics range from executive policy decisions on compliance with federal accessibility mandates to operational procedures for responding to specific accommodation requests. The compendium is comprised of four sections: Section 1 was developed from a series of site-visit interviews with senior-level decision makers, faculty, staff and handicapped students at six colleges and universities. It contains an overview of accessibility issues and problems that require attention, a discussion of how accessibility considerations can be incorporated into a planning and budgeting process, and a set of guidelines for assessing specific accommodation requests; Section 2 reviews 16 national data bases that describe the handicapped population in the United States and contains summary charts of the characteristics revealed. Section 3 describes the results of a survey that NACUBO mailed to a stratified sample of 944 of its member institutions concerning trends in accessibility expenditures and number and types of handicapped students served; and Section 4 lists adaptive education equipment by impairment (such as hearing or mobility) and then by function (such as writing or speaking). The document contains an index, equipment source list, and lists of information resources and services available to handicapped students. (GLR)
Download or read book Disability in Higher Education written by Nancy J. Evans and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Create campuses inclusive and supportive of disabled students, staff, and faculty Disability in Higher Education: A Social Justice Approach examines how disability is conceptualized in higher education and ways in which students, faculty, and staff with disabilities are viewed and served on college campuses. Drawing on multiple theoretical frameworks, research, and experience creating inclusive campuses, this text offers a new framework for understanding disability using a social justice lens. Many institutions focus solely on legal access and accommodation, enabling a system of exclusion and oppression. However, using principles of universal design, social justice, and other inclusive practices, campus environments can be transformed into more inclusive and equitable settings for all constituents. The authors consider the experiences of students, faculty, and staff with disabilities and offer strategies for addressing ableism within a variety of settings, including classrooms, residence halls, admissions and orientation, student organizations, career development, and counseling. They also expand traditional student affairs understandings of disability issues by including chapters on technology, law, theory, and disability services. Using social justice principles, the discussion spans the entire college experience of individuals with disabilities, and avoids any single-issue focus such as physical accessibility or classroom accommodations. The book will help readers: Consider issues in addition to access and accommodation Use principles of universal design to benefit students and employees in academic, cocurricular, and employment settings Understand how disability interacts with multiple aspects of identity and experience. Despite their best intentions, college personnel frequently approach disability from the singular perspective of access to the exclusion of other important issues. This book provides strategies for addressing ableism in the assumptions, policies and practices, organizational structures, attitudes, and physical structures of higher education.
Download or read book EBOOK Learning Disability written by Gordon Grant and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2010-05-16 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The editors have brought together a range of eminent contributors who present a range of issues throughout the life cycle. The book asserts that it hopes to 'assist readers to anticipate change and discontinuity in people's lives and think about strategies to support them' through the many challenges that they may face in their lives. In my view this book certainly does that and the editors and contributors are to be congratulated on the production of a relevant and contemporary text that I have no hesitation in both endorsing and recommending to all involved in supporting and or caring for people with learning disabilities." Professor Bob Gates, Project Leader - Learning Disabilities Workforce Development, NHS Education South Central, UK "The editors have gathered an authoritative faculty to present and discuss a range of contemporary issues; both practical and ethical. The text is well grounded in the lived experience of people with disability and draws on the evidence-base of contemporary science. Each chapter includes thought provoking exercises. This is a seminal text for students and practitioners, researchers and policy makers." Associate Professor Keith R. McVilly, Deakin University, Australia "I currently own a copy of the first edition and it has proved an invaluable resource time and time again. There is not an essay I complete that does not make reference to the book and I can consistently use it to reflect back on my practice as a student nurse and social worker. Having read several extracts from the new edition it does appear to include very high quality content covering learning disabilities over the lifespan ... if I were to personally recommend any book for budding or current learning disability professionals then this would be it." James Grainger, Student Nurse/Social Worker, Sheffield Hallam University, UK "I like the way it has primary and secondary information from a range of sources. The exercises in the book also get you to think about the situation in question which helps us think about our values and anti-oppressive practice ... This book really does start with the basics and having a learning disability from birth and the effects, to in depth knowledge and literature ... This book would be very helpful to me as it brings in literature policies and models from both a health and social side, which is important for my course and collaborative working." Laura Jean Lowe, Student Nurse, Sheffield Hallam University, UK "It is written with a clearly conveyed in-depth knowledge and in a way that has professional lived experience within the context of the work. The authors have taken into account the emotional, client-centred approach to the modern practitioner's practice ... The book gives a true wealth of good practice scenarios that can only help practitioners be good at what they do and aspire to be." Lee Marshall, Student Nurse, Sheffield Hallam University, UK With its spread of chapters covering key issues across the life cycle this text has established itself as the foundational primer for those studying the lived experiences of people with learning disabilities and their families, and outcomes achieved through services and support systems. Recognising learning disability as a lifelong disability, this accessible book is structured around the life cycle. The second edition is refreshed and expanded to include seven new chapters, covering: Aetiology Breaking news (about disability) and early intervention Transition to adulthood The sexual lives of women Employment Personalisation People with hidden identities With contributions from respected figures from a range of disciplines, the book draws heavily upon multidisciplinary perspectives and is based on the latest research and evidence for practice. The text is informed by medical, social and legal models of learning disability, exploring how "learning disability" is produced, reproduced and understood. Extensive use is made of real-life case studies, designed to bring theory, values, policy and practice to life. Narrative chapters describe, in the words of people with learning disabilities themselves, their lives and aspirations. They helpfully show readers the kinds of roles played by families, advocates and services in supporting people with learning disabilities. New exercises and questions have been added to encourage discussion and reflection on practice. Learning Disability is core reading for students entering health and social care professions to work with people with learning disabilities. It is a compelling reference text for practitioners as it squarely addresses the challenges facing people with learning disability, their loved ones and the people supporting them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le Département vaudois de la santé et de l'action sociale souhaite disposer d'informations concernant les capacités et les besoins des personnes majeures en situation de handicap de manière à étayer sa réflexion sur l'architecture et la taille du dispositif de prise en charge. Il a chargé l'Institut universitaire de médecine sociale et préventive de Lausanne d'une étude, circonscrite à la population des adultes en situation de handicap mental, de handicap physique ou de polyhandicap, dont les objectifs consistent à décrire et à estimer, pour chacun de ces groupes : 1. la proportion et le nombre d'adultes placés en institution résidentielle en mesure de vivre en milieu ordinaire sous réserve de l'existence de dispositifs de prise en charge adaptés (transfert de l'institution vers le milieu ordinaire) ; 2. la proportion et le nombre de personnes en situation de handicap (mineurs et majeurs) vivant hors institution résidentielle susceptibles de devoir être institutionnalisées dans un proche avenir - si rien ne change dans le dispositif existant - (transfert du milieu ordinaire vers l'institution).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: À la suite de leurs recherches menées dans le cadre de Cemaforre, Centre national de ressources pour l'accessibilité culturelle, les auteurs proposent cet essai, une première dans le domaine des sciences humaines, politiques et sociales. Il retrace les différentes formes de prise en compte des personnes handicapées et âgées en manque d'autonomie vis-à-vis du droit de participer librement à la vie culturelle.

Les auteurs y présentent les grandes lignes de force et les principales étapes qu'ils ont pu observer dans l'évolution des concepts, des politiques et des pratiques. Cet historique aide à mieux comprendre les origines des obstacles persistants sur les chemins vers l'effectivité des droits culturels de ces populations qui représentent en France près d'une dizaine de millions de citoyennes et citoyens. Il permet aussi de repérer les atouts dont nous disposons pour poursuivre et engager les travaux indispensables à la réalisation d'avancées significatives. Cet ouvrage nous éclaire aussi sur notre société ainsi que sur les prises de conscience nécessaires à la construction d'un avenir plus respectueux de la citoyenneté culturelle de chacun.
Download or read book Institutional Disability written by Robert A. Katzmann and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This case study of transportation policy for disabled people illustrates the flaws in policymaking that lead many Americans to believe government is not working as it should. Robert A. Katzmann examines the workings of the legislative, administrative, and judicial processes, both separately and in interaction, as he relates the erratic path of transportation policy for the disabled over two decades. An estimated 13.4 million people in this country have difficulty using public transportation, but the federal response to their problems of mobility is of fairly recent vintage, beginning with legislation in the early 1970s. Since then, there have been many twists and turns in policy, involving a wide array of governmental institutions. These constant shifts have confused state and local governments, the transit industry, and the disabled community. Assessing why policy was so erratic, Katzmann concludes that in part the confusion resulted from the inability to choose between conflicting approaches to the problem--one oriented toward the rights of equal access for the disabled, and the other favoring effective mobility by any practical means. In addition, the conflict between these two policy approaches was compounded by increasing fragmentation within and among national institutions.
Download or read book Allies for Inclusion Disability and Equity in Higher Education written by Karen A. Myers and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an overview of students with disabilities in postsecondary institutions and the importance of allies in their lives. It is a call to action for faculty, staff, and administrators in all facets of higher education, and emphasizes the shared responsibility toward students with disabilities and toward creating meaningful change. This monograph begins with a look into the future of disability education. How will students create their own identities? Will there be a need for disability accommodations or will a universally designed world eliminate that current necessity? It also looks at the past, with discussions of disability legislation such as the ADA of 1990, the impact of Supreme Court decisions, descriptions of college students with disabilities, and the paradigm shift from the medical “deficit” model of disability to one that focuses on the individual’s lived experience as a social construct. Drawing on theoretical frameworks in multiple disciplines, disability identity development is explained, ally development is defined, and disability services are explored. The monograph ends with a discussion of where disability education is now and how faculty, staff, and administrators will continue to be allies of inclusion for students in the years to come. This is the 5th issue of the 39th volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report. Each monograph is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences. Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.
