ASPAU Since we echo, with complete satisfaction that another Style Guide Media and journalism, about people with disabilities, has seen the light.
EAPN Created by Galicia and the Galician Association of REPORTERS.
She joins all who have been seeing the light, almost since 2003, and which I summarized below so that you can consult, such as those developed by CERMI, AUTISM GALICIA, AETAPI, FEAPS, etc.
also know, since we have communicated well, which is about to see another light guide created by the Office Permanent Specialized Ministry of Health, Social Policy and Equality.
hope that all these actions is achieved once she began to germinate in a United Nations document of 1982 "to improve communications about disabled people", followed in 1989 with the 10 famous Royal Association guidelines Prevention and Care of Disabled People (showing the positive side, say "disabled", no labels, beware of myths, standardized information ...) and especially with the Declaration of Salamanca in 2004, that means respectful communication with people with disabilities as people with autism, and that when they have to report them, before people see that the labels, not to speak of disease but of disorder, which focus on inclusive society rather than see it from a welfare perspective or linked to morbid events, in short, that is treated as a normal element of , breaking down the myths, totally false, that people with autism are unable to feel affection, violent, who are indifferent and live wrapped up in themselves, or by using autism in its pejorative sense as an insult especially among the political class association and prevent the dissemination of images that convey isolation or generate compassion and stop frightening or gruesome headlines. And in any case before to publish any information likely to create controversy, consult professionals and Autism Associations to avoid confusion, inaccuracies and errors, which lead to misunderstandings which must then be rectified at the expense of damage in the first instance to people with autism.
In ASPAU we are confident that, together, together, we can do.
We end with a phrase taken from the guide to which we refer:
No people with disabilities, but inaccessible to the diverse societies.
I never knew very well how disability can be determined. The failure, yes. Is a gap. What is not there, do not. But disability is a physical or mental. And I do not know anyone who does not have, to one degree or another.
