Project Update: Reimagining TAS with Disabled Young People

Read the latest blog from the Reminaginging TAS with Disabled Young People team

“Too often research assumes non-disabled people as participants and researchers. This assumption is ableist: it assumes only non-disabled people will be present in research. In contrast, we reimagine our research partners: emphasising the distinct skills and perspectives offered by disabled young people (Runswick-Cole et al. 2017). Thus, we hope to challenge the normative and ableist power balances that persist in the research process and to build trust with young people as co-researchers and collaborators,” excerpt from the project blog.
