#Ableism is an attitude or social practice that discriminates against those regarded as “#disabled”. It assumes that some bodies, minds, and behaviors are more desirable and worthy than others. Ableism can present itself in diverse institutions and spaces.

Defining Disability:
#Disability refers to a periodic or permanent form of physical or mental difference(s) which may be considered non-normal and/or less valuable in societies that privilege non-disabled bodies. It can be both visible and invisible.

Utilizing #twitter as a #knowledge #sharing platform, we will be posting keywords and definitions that we have adopted in our #research projects on #disability. We would love to hear your feedback on these definitions as a way to #generate knowledge and discussions. Stay tuned.
