RISEWISE -RISE Women with disabilities In Social Engagement

Description du projet

Renforcer l’inclusion sociale des femmes handicapées

L’emploi et l’inclusion dans les activités sociales quotidiennes constituent des défis importants pour les femmes handicapées. Financé par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie, le projet RISEWISE entend relever ces défis. Il s’efforcera d’identifier les besoins et les bonnes pratiques de divers pays de l’UE représentatifs d’environnements culturels et socio-économiques variés. Plus précisément, il fera appel à une méthode d’analyse innovante qui favorise l’échange d’expériences entre les chercheurs, le personnel chargé de l’innovation et les praticiens. RISEWISE sera la première étude globale portant sur les femmes handicapées menée en Europe. Elle étudiera des lignes de recherche potentielles qui évaluent la faisabilité et les possibilités d’innovation. Le projet entend également démontrer l’impact du renforcement des capacités des femmes handicapées sur la croissance économique et sociétale durable.

Objectif

Women with disabilities have more difficulties to find an employment and to integrate in social day life activities than men with disabilities.
This project focuses on the collective of women with disabilities from different perspectives, trying to identify needs and best practices in several EU countries, representing different cultural and socio-economic environments, for the integration and improvement of their quality of life in several respects. By applying a novel analysis method, based on the experience acquired by the exchange of researchers, innovation staff and practitioners in the European area among the participating institutions, the project will identify a set of multi-sectorial research lines, to enhance integration and involvement of this population in the society along several dimensions.
The delimitation of the scope of the project to this sector of the population has several advantages. First, it is the first relevant study at a global scale that is performed in Europe on this collective. Second, it allows putting into practice and validating a novel social research method, with a strong multidisciplinary approach, with such a well delimited case study. novel potential research lines can be explored in different settings to assess their opportunity and feasibility. Fourth, it will show the impact that this collective may have on a sustainable growth in economy and society, from different respects, by empowering their capacities, so far undervalued. Fifth, it will establish a platform for cooperation among research groups and associations in EU that are aware of the situation of this collective, looking for their synergies. It is worth mentioning that advances on technologies and measures towards a stronger social engagement of disabled people have finally a positive impact also in the whole population as many examples show on how solutions have been transferred to the rest of society in fields such as computer interfaces, ergonomic solutions, etc.
