Caregivers experience increased psychological and emotional well- being. Empowerment / Support Persons with disabilities improve in their life skills (i.e. independent living skills, functional skills etc.) as much as their potential allows. Caregivers feel confident of their ability to provide competent care and support to persons with disabilities. Persons with disabilities (or their proxies) are able to make informed decisions and planning via better support and access to information, programme and product navigation. Caregivers have greater access to support services, network and structure that sustain caregiving. Integration with Society Persons with disabilities have more

social, family, economic and community life. Caregivers have more opportunities to participate in social, family, economic and community life.

TB-ELI Grant Call 8

Work and Community Integration

In building an inclusive society that is accepting of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs), the community and society play an important role – whether as neighbours, service providers, employers, or the general public including PwDs themselves, in understanding and acknowledging that they form the ecosystem of mutual support which will allow one and all to live independently and be included in the community.

Work and Community Integration

Excerpt from Enabling Masterplan 3

Work and Community Integration

Problem Statement How might we create opportunities where Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) are supported to participate equally in society, just as people without disabilities do?

Supported with autonomy and dignity Opportunities interaction, events, hardware etc. Participate equally, seamlessly and naturally Society home, school, workplace, neighbourhood

Let’s Ideate to Explore

Background

Personas & Insights

Some PwDs are disempowered and need more support, some prefer to blend in and not let their disability be noticed, while a few others are confident and empowered to call attention to their disability and engage on related issues without feeling any lesser. PwDs desire to be treated just like how a person without disability would be. While some of their needs may be unique to their condition and they may need support or assistance at times, they wish to do so in a way that respects their autonomy and dignity, preferably without any labels that sets them apart and draws public gaze to their disability and presumes they are more different or special than any average person.

Different level of empowerment Desire to be treated normally

Background

Personas & Insights

One common need required for PwDs to succeed in integration is for PwDs to thrive in safe, encouraging environments where there is social-emotional support for them to be challenged to grow. Unfortunately, formal social support at home, school, workplace or neighbourhood are often lacking, and informally, the public often do not know how to support/interact with them.

Conditions for nurturing empowerment

Creating experiential opportunities for 2-way interaction and building relationships over time between the PwDs and people without disabilities will go a long way in shifting public attitudes from pity to empathy, and finally to neutral/natural.

Shifting from pity to empathy

Activity 2: Let’s Ideate…

2. As a group, discuss and decide on the TOP 3 solutions that your team feel strongly for the ideal integration to happen

• Solutions could be voted with its impact and sustainability as primary

consideration 3. Post these 3 points on https://tinyurl.com/GC812Oct2018 or scan the QR code on the activity information card 1. Ideas / Solution Generation

• [Green] Come out with the wildest

and most number of ideas you can individually in 5 mins

• What are the potential solutions

that could be taken to address the gaps and challenges presented? (if resource constraints were not a concern)

Let’s Explore…

Possible Design Opportunities & Ideas

Treating PwDs Normally

Support PWDs to participate in community naturally without explicitly calling attention to their disabilities in aa disempowering way Support PWDs to project a positive self-image

Empower PwDs to participate in society

Create targeted products & services based on PwDs’ different needs and behaviours Create interventions to ‘move’ the PwDs from being disempowered to being empowered

Environment to support growth in empowerment

Structured training/ personalised consultancy to caregivers of PwDs and create opportunities for caregivers to learn informally from one another. Services that provide social support regularly and

• pportunities for PwDs to

be challenged to grow resilience. Showcase a vision/narrative of a truly inclusive society that will inspire the PWDs, caregivers and public.

Shifting from Pity to Empathy

Coach the public on how to approach PWDs in a way that is respectful Create

• pportunities for 2-

way interaction between PwDs and the community to build relationships

• ver long term in

key touchpoints.
