Sharing research results to field stakeholders
Research toolkit for disabled people’s organisations : How to undertake and use applied research
SummaryThere are a number of very good manuals and texts on how to do research, including applied research and participatory research. However, we have found very little guidance available for advocacy groups, such as disabled peoples’ organisations (DPOs), on what comes before and after research is done. This handbook addresses this gap, providing practical information for DPOs on why they might decide to undertake research, how to identify who to work with, how to guide the process to ensure they obtain results that are useful for them and what do to with their research findings. This toolkit has been developed as one component of the DFID funded Cross-Cutting Disability Research Programme (CCDRP) undertaken by the Leonard Cheshire Disability and Inclusive Development Centre, University College London.
The emergence of the social model of disability offers a comprehensive critique of traditional approaches to disability. Parallel calls have been made to break the mould of disability research by adopting an 'emancipatory' approach. This book contains thirteen original contributions from leading figures and newcomers on the key issues and problems in translating disability theory into research practice.
The questions addressed include: breaking the researcher-researched heirarchy; involving disabled people; ownership and control; disability research funding; measuring disability barriers; research and the survivors' movement; narrative approaches; researching sexuality, multiple oppression, abuse and violence, and researching disability in non-European contexts.
The Alliance for Inclusive Education and the Disability LIB (Listen-Include-Build) Project have produced a document to help organisations make decisions about meeting disabled people's access requirements during events.
9 checklists will help stakeholders realise what needs to be, who can help and what they already have to organize an accessible conference or meeting for example.
Center on Knowledge Translation for Disability and Rehabilitation Research (CKTDRR)'s library
The purpose of the Center on KTDRR is to make it easier to find, understand, and use the results of research that can make a positive impact on the lives of people with disabilities. The KTDRR Center promotes "the use of high-quality disability and rehabilitation research" for NIDRR-funded researchers, developers, and KT centers. Other audiences include people with disabilities and their families, disability advocates, service providers, and policy makers, as well as administrators, educators, and employers.
In the "library" section of CKTDRR website, KTDRR staff reviewed a number of scientific articles on how to translate knowledge into action. The articles can all be uploaded from the website.
