• Title:
  The challenges of emancipation in the context of autonomy of adults with visual impairment
• Creator:
  Walkiewicz-Krutak, Małgorzata
• Description:
  The aim of this article is to identify significant determinants of emancipation of persons with visual impairment. Ridding oneself of restrictions, stereotypes, and even violence affecting various spheres of functioning of a blind adult is crucial to the mdevelopment and consolidation of his/her subjectivity. It is assumed that conscious autonomy of visually impaired people, enabling and conditioning performance of the tasks related to adulthood, requires independence in orientation and mobility, independence in carrying out activities of daily living, easy access to information and opportunities to communicate, undertaking satisfying professional activities as well as rewarding family, social and cultural activities. Developing subjectivity and autonomy in adulthood requires support from the family, as well as well-planned and consistently implemented educational and rehabilitation activities. The process of expanding autonomy of an individual can take place in relationship to the emancipation process of the group. One example is the activities of foundations run by visually impaired persons, whose main purpose is promoting dignified living of the blind.
