Making the Invisible Visible: Disability Inclusive Development in Solomon Islands
指出国际和国家层面的残疾包容话语常忽视制度结构、政治经济和社会文化权力关系,呼吁基于实证的包容性研究以解决残疾在理论、统计和项目中的隐形问题。
International and national level disability inclusive discourse, policy and strategy typically render invisible the institutional structures, political economies and socio-cultural power relations that constitute the lived experience of disability. The lack of robust information on disability extends these theoretical blind spots to the absence of disability in official statistics, political dialogue and social policy. Empirically grounded, inclusive research that recognises disability as embedded in globalised political economies and culturally specific power relations is required to address the theoretical, statistical and programmatic invisibility of disability. Such research will provide a solid knowledge base on which to build effective inclusive interventions.
