Abstract [en]
“States Parties shall take appropriate measures to enable persons with disabilities to have the opportunity to develop and utilize their creative, artistic and intellectual potential, not only for their own benefit, but also for the enrichment of society,” states paragraph 2 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Article 30 – Participation in cultural life,recreation, leisure and sport (CRPD) (UN General Assembly, 2006).In this book, disabled persons’ opportunities and challenges for developing creative, artistic, and intellectual potential are highlighted. Furthermore, both individual and societal enrichment, and barriers to this enrichment, are made visible.How might inclusive arts practices strengthen active citizenship and community participation? This is the main question that inspired us to engage with glocal collegial networks which led to this book project.
