“Many persons with disabilities have moved out from institutions
BUT…
the institutional culture stays, formulating still people’s lives out from a narrow and limited life space. We need to ask ourselves as professionals, service providers, decision makers etc. - when we hear persons with disabilities talking about their lives, describing unfair service systems of rules, routines, disrespect, group-thinking, missing support etc. – What is this, why is the institutional culture still going on? Why is institutional culture still influencing persons with disabilities lives?”
We need a change
Towards a deeper understanding of persons with disabilities as persons with own identities and to become a citizen as everybody else.
Towards systematically development of inclusive quality of support and new forms of support - a platform for the support quality based on UNCRPD is needed. Develop the professional’s role, to renew professional’s conception and understanding of the quality of support becomes one of the important “keys” for a successful implementation of rights (=CRPD articles).
