dc.description.abstractUnderstanding disability is crucial for those who want to promote an inclusive society. There are different models of defining disability which are divided into two categories: The individual models, and the social model. Individual models have been considered oppressing for persons with disability for instance, the medical model which is a sub-category of individual model and the best known model, looks only at the impairment. It views disability as a problem of the person, directly caused by the disease which requires medical care. Another type of individual model is the charity model which looks at disability as a real personal tragedy. Nowadays, the social model is most commonly used by organizations of people with disability. Through them they can engage in forums that advocate for disability rights. It sees disability as mainly a socially created problem. Contrarily to the medical model, disability is not seen as a consequence of the disease but as a consequence of the inability of the society to make the environmental modifications necessary for the full participation of people with disabilities in all areas of social life. Thus the issue is attitudinal, which becomes a question of human rights at the political levelen_US
