Her experience ranges from charity work, respite centre manager, special educational needs teacher in a special school and in a secondary school, a learning support facility manager, behaviour consultant, key worker and currently working directly with the Government of Gibraltar, having set up its first Disability Office in 2021.  Working directly under the auspices of Gibraltar’s Chief Minister and with Gibraltar’s Minister for Disability, Jenny is currently developing Gibraltar’s first National Disability Strategy.  Most importantly, Jenny is the mother of a boy with rare chromosomal duplications which causes medical issues and profound learning disability.

Die Selbstbestimmung von Menschen mit Behinderungen ist ein zentraler Aspekt einer inklusiven Gesellschaft, die Vielfalt und Gleichberechtigung fördert.

Der Sachwalterverein ist ein privatrechtlicher Verein, der die gesetzliche Vertretung und Förderung der Interessen von volljährigen Personen mit psychischer Erkrankung oder geistiger Behinderung bezweckt. Der Verein ist von der Regierung des Fürstentums Liechtenstein beauftragt, Aufgaben im Bereich der Sachwalterschaft (ehemals Vormundschaft) zu übernehmen. Der Sachwalterverein wird dann zum Sachwalter, zur Sachwalterin einer Person bestellt, wenn keine geeignete nahestehende Person für diese Aufgabe zur Verfügung steht oder wenn mit der Sachwalterschaft spezielle Anforderungen verbunden sind.   Kann eine volljährige Person trotz geistiger Behinderung oder psychischer Krankheit ihre Angelegenheiten selbst meistern – etwa mit Hilfe ihrer Familie, mit Hilfe von Pflegeeinrichtungen oder Einrichtungen der Behindertenhilfe oder im Rahmen sozialer oder psychosozialer Dienste – darf kein Sachwalter bestellt werden. Dasselbe gilt auch, wenn die betroffene Person von einem nächsten Angehörigen oder Vorsorgebevollmächtigten ausreichend vertreten werden kann.

Dominic Slowey  is 74 years old and was born in Dublin He was born with cerebral palsy and  epilepsy which he manages with medication.  Dominic attended mainstream education until he was 15 years old.  When he started higher education, the classrooms were upstairs and he was not able to climb the stairs to get to his classrooms so he discontinued attending the school he was attending. When he was 19 years old he lost all of his sight and moved to another school that was being run by the Christian Brothers, where he stayed until he was around 35 years old. Prior to losing  his sight, Dominic enjoyed watching movies and today he has a great collection of DVD's which he enjoys listening to the stories.

Malta’s my favourite country on earth. From megalithic temples that are older than the Great Pyramid, Stonehenge, the Acropolis and Newgrange.  The fact that it’s a tiny archipelago in the middle of the Mediterranean leads Malta to having one of the best climates in Europe. It’s also Europe’s safest country (EU membership since 1 May 2004 and Eurozone membership since 1 January 2008, officially replacing the Maltese Lira aka Pound and is officially bilingual with Maltese (the only Semitic language in the EU) and English being the two official languages. Malta combines everything I love about both Australia and Switzerland and takes out the bad parts. Honestly I hoped to write a song about everything I love about this country.  From crosses, knights, the awesomely named “Pharaoh Hound, Maltese Dogs to Twistiees, Pastizzi (a type of savory pastry filled with either ricotta cheese or curried peas), the first-rate incredible national anthem “L-Innu Malti” (The Maltese Hymn) the 1956 referendum on whether the archipelago would be formally join the UK as a constituent country in which 77.0% of voters voted in favour of full integration as a part of the UK to Robert Abela, another shining example of a leader being a true human rights respecting changemaker. Other notable historical figures include former Prime Minister Dom Mintoff who was PM when the 1956 referendum was held, the Knights Hospitaler who founded Valletta, Malta's modern capital and largest city in the 16th century and Sir Anthony Mamo (1909-2008) the last Governor-General of the State of Malta (a Commonwealth Realm with Queen Elizabeth II as head of state which he was the Governor-General of from 5 July 1971-13 December 1974) and the first President of the Republic of Malta (13 December 1974-27 December 1976).  Join me and Samantha Pace Gasan, the Commissioner for the Rights of Persons with Disability at the Maltese Commission on the Rights of Persons With Disabilities as we explore the advancements in disability rights in the shining gem of a nation and the role that he/she/they played in advancing the understanding and acceptance of disability in the Magnificent Mediterranean Marvel of Malta.  Prime Minister Robert Abela met someone with a disability on 2 December 2020: https://tvmnews.mt/en/news/person-with-a-disability-spends-the-day-with-pm/  Prime Minister Abela proposes annual increase for those supporting people with disabilities: https://tvmnews.mt/en/news/pm-proposes-e4250-increase-annually-for-those-caring-for-persons-with-severe-disability/  Learn about the Maltese Commission for the Rights of People with Disabilities and the Maltese Federation of Organizations of Persons with Disability:  CRPD:  https://www.crpd.org.mt/  MFOPD:  https://www.edf-feph.org/our-members/malta-federation-of-organisations-of-persons-with-disability/  Check out the Atelier Für Alle disability-oriented art program: https://www.atelierfuralle.org  If you have any questions about this episode, please send them to: [email protected]

In recent years we've seen two things, an increase in homophobic attitudes and the lack of discussion about "Ableism" aka disability discrimination. Joel Moberg aka "Vanora" is a member of both the disability and LGBTQ+ communities and has undertaken various projects to raise awareness about the rights of both LGBTQ people and people with disabilities. In this episode he and I are going to explore how disability can be used as a unifying tool when it comes to raising awareness about various social justice issues and learn what it's like to learn about what it's like to explore one's own gender and identity while also living with a disability.

Bereits 2015 haben eine Gruppe von Freunden und ich einer Gruppe von Schülern der 7. Klasse, die vom Fiechten Campus der International School Basel zu Besuch waren, einen Vortrag zum Thema Diskriminierung gehalten.

Ich möchte Sie nur wissen lassen, dass ich Präsentationen zu Themen mache, mit denen die heutige Behindertengemeinschaft in Schulen konfrontiert ist.

Wussten Sie, dass „Menschen mit Behinderungen“ eher Opfer von Menschenhandel und moderner Sklaverei werden? Nun, es ist wahr und hier ist der Grund.  Diese Folge wird auch ein Interview mit meinem guten Freund enthalten. Lea Ifrid war Mitglied von MAST, einer von Studenten geführten Organisation, die versucht, das Bewusstsein für Sexhandel zu schärfen. Dieses Interview war nicht in der englischen Originalversion dieser Folge.

Bhutan ist ein Land wie kein anderes. Es ist ein hochbuddhistisches Königreich in der Vogelbeobachtung Indiens und Chinas, das erst 1974 seine Grenzen öffnete und 1999 Fernsehen und Internet einführte. Seit 1974 arbeitet das Land unter einem System des Bruttosozialglücks, das das allgemeine Wohlbefinden und die Qualität von Indien und China misst Das Leben der Bürger und nicht die gesamtwirtschaftliche Leistung als Zeichen der Entwicklung. In dieser Folge untersuchen wir, wie dieses System zu einer besseren Lebensqualität von Menschen mit Behinderungen beitragen kann und wie das Bruttosozialglück zur Bruttosozialinklusivität führen kann. Nur damit Sie wissen, dass ich in diese Folge nicht wie in der englischen Version über die bhutanische Geschichte gesprochen habe, da ich im Geschichts-Podcast eine Folge dazu machen werde.

Ich kündige eine neue Show. Folgendes müssen Sie wissen.

For those of you who didn't know I have a website which you can visit using the link below. https://sites.google.com/s/1QbElzbm4LBB0mmd4IC9NPyB0RSG1Jd9u/p/17TLRdUFWGB_70DvK8Jdnc-Mye_K8HDrl/edit

After Quarantine is over the world we knew will be different from the one we left.  Before that happens I will be sharing with you the advantages and the disadvantages that quarantine has provided me and the lessons that this experience has taught me.

First of all I would like to apologize for the audio quality during the last few episodes. I am aware of how bad it was and I hope the audio quality in this episode will make up for it. Moving forward I would like to try and do a live show where you can call in and reach out directly with your disability rights questions, questions about the show and other topics that you would be interested in having me cover. I hope you are all interested in this idea as this will only work if you are interested in it.

This is just a short Quarantine update nothing special. Email me at [email protected]
