Disability Observatory

The Disability Observatory was born with the proposal of bringing together different researchers interested in the issue of disability and producing knowledge (research) and actions on the subject.

The objective is to illuminate the phenomenon of disability as an interaction between the social, psychological and biological spheres. To this end, it proposes and develops research on disability at different levels and in a multi- and interdisciplinary perspective.

It also intends to act as an observation center for the development of reflections on disability in the national and international scenario. The Observatory is interested in monitoring the development of public policies, scientific production, the media, among others.
