Reformulating 'Inclusion': a study with non-speaking disabled youth
Each day over the next week I'll post up an abstract for a paper being presented by a member of the Critical Physiotherapy Network at the In Sickness and In Health conference in Mallorca in June 2015. (You can find more information on the conference here.) Reformulating 'Inclusion': a study with non-speaking disabled youth By Gail Teachman & Barbara Gibson Discourses of 'inclusion' assume a predetermined normative centre that constructs people as either insiders or outsiders along a moral hierarchy that privileges particular bodies.

In this presentation we explore these notions through … [Read more...] about Reformulating 'Inclusion': a study with non-speaking disabled youth
Idea 25: Overcoming barriers to publishing in English language journals (3 mins)

Idea 2: Publishing in people’s first language (2 mins)
Every day during September we will post up an idea for you to vote on. The most popular ideas will become the things that the inaugural Organizing Committee of the Critical Physiotherapy Network focuses on in 2015. So please make sure you cast your vote at the bottom of each post. The Critical Physiotherapy Network has quickly become an international collective. We have people from 17 countries who speak at least 10 different languages. While we've conducted most of our business thus far in English, that doesn't mean we don't recognize that this is problematic and try to be a bit more inclusive in the way we share our ideas. It would be a bit hypocritical for us to claim that we … [Read more...] about Idea 2: Publishing in people’s first language (2 mins)
