Image description: A list is titled 'Our wishlist for Equity' with bullet points underneath: Wider understanding and adoption of the Social Model of Disability. More representation of disabled people in public, political and decision-making roles. Genuine co-production in policy and service design. A social security system that supports, not punishes, disabled people. Nothing about us, without us, always. The list is framed by an orange and gold sparkly border, representing one of DW's logo colours and the glitz of The Life of a Showgirl album by Taylor Swift. DW's logo is placed in the top right corner.
Sequins are forever. Inclusion should be too.
Inspired by #TheLifeOfAShowgirl, here’s our Wishlist for disability equity.
These aren’t nice‑to‑haves, they’re basic rights, and we shouldn’t have to wish for them.

Living with an impairment often means choice isn’t part of your day.
It’s not about being inspirational it’s about navigating a world full of barriers most people never notice.

Photo of river. soft green banks, somewhat idyllic.
Yesterday I took a short walk along a riverbank, The path was wide and flat, perfectly accessible for wheeled mobility, except none were there because every hundred yards or so there was a kissing gate.
This is society excluding it’s own, this is the #SocialModel of disability.
They say disruption starts with a question.
Mine is simple: What if inclusion wasn’t an afterthought—but the engine?

The #SocialModel of Disability states that it is not our bodies which disable us; everyone has a body and they all require maintenance and have differing needs
What disables us is the #ableism of a society that *could* make accommodations for our physical and mental health needs, but chooses not to

There's nothing 'special' about educational needs.
High time it was renamed 'Specific Educational Needs' to put the emphasis on what the student actually needs rather than lazily labelling them as 'special'.

2: Being Autistic is a disability ie #SocialModel of Disability.
Sad 😔 they insist on being elitist

Do you know about the #SocialModel of #Disability??
“…we really need some sort of a People’s Diagnostic Manual because the correct diagnosis isn’t that I’m depressed, it’s that the pathologies of neoliberal capitalism hurt people rated as not having any value….”
Spot on. Tis the difference between the #MedicalModel and the #SocialModel of disability
Thank you @caitlinparr.bsky.social for shining a light on what many people living with #endometriosis & other health issues experience in work. This is why #SocialModel of #Disability and tools like endometriosis.cymru are so important! @ftww.bsky.social offers peer support & campaigns for change. ❤️
I find it helpful to think about what makes divergence disabling rather than simply different. The #SocialModel of disability argues it is the ways we organise work, institutions, norms etc that make it more or less easy for people to thrive

All depends on how one approaches the concept of 'disability'. I'm a #SocialModel guy - autism isn't a disability, but nor is paraplegia. Those are conditions, which give rise to impairment (difference in function tending to detriment in society), which lead to disability (disadvantage in society).
I’m sharing the link to the full video of ‘The Disabling Council’ an incredible project researched and scripted by Allan Sutherland, a key figure in the disability art. The video consist of interviews with disabled people, including the activist Michael Oliver.
