Destek Sisteminde Yenilik ve Engelli Topluluğunun Güçlendirilmesi | Elyse Go | TEDxSJCS Youth

Manila merkezli sosyal girişimci Elyse Go, engelli bireylerin ve bakım verenlerin dünyasını ele alıyor. Aidiyet ihtiyacının uygulamada neden sıklıkla reddedildiğini tartışan konuşma, eşitlik ile hakkaniyet arasındaki farkı açıklıyor. Dışlanmanın kökünde yer alan politika, yapı ve zihniyet sorunlarına eğilmeye çağrı yapıyor. Konuşma, yerel bir topluluk tarafından bağımsız olarak düzenlenen bir TEDx etkinliğinde sunuldu.

• Engelli bireylerin ve bakım verenlerin aidiyet ihtiyacı
• Eşitlik ve hakkaniyet arasındaki fark
• KASAMA değeri ve kapsayıcılık çağrısı

Elyse Go takes us into the unchartered world of persons with disabilities (PWDs) and their caregivers, exploring why the need for belonging, something we all understand, is so often denied in practice. Through the Filipino value of KASAMA, meaning "to be together with" in journey, struggle, and outcome, she breaks down the difference between equality and equity, shares powerful stories of PWDs and their families defying expectations, and challenges us to stop waiting for exclusion to erupt and instead address its root causes in policies, structures, and mindsets. This talk is a call to action, an invitation to become a KASAMA in building a world where everyone's potential has room to grow.
