Overview

Disability, identity, and social participation influence how individuals navigate health, sexuality, and representation in society. Historically, people with disabilities have been excluded from conversations around bodily autonomy, sexual agency, and public visibility, reinforcing stereotypes and limiting their participation in social and cultural life. By further examining how disabled individuals assert their identities, claim space in discussions of health and sexuality, and demand authentic representation in media and public discourse, traditional narratives can be challenged. Continued exploration may encourage understanding of the diverse experiences of disabled people and build a more inclusive society that values all bodies and voices. Disability, Identity, and Social Participation: Health, Sexuality, and Representation explores how disability shapes personal and collective identities related to health, sexuality, and societal inclusion. It examines the barriers to social participation and representation, while highlighting the ways disabled individuals challenge stigma and assert agency in both private and public spheres. This book covers topics such as sexuality education, discrimination, and human rights, and is a useful resource for educators, sociologists, medical professionals, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
