Introducing a Human Rights-based disability research methodology
journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-21, 09:27 authored by Anna Arstein-Kerslake, Yvette MakerYvette Maker, Flynn, E, Ward, O, Bell, R, Degener, TResearch has the potential to be a powerful tool for the realisation of the rights of disabled people. However, antiquated research practices continue to marginalise disabled people by excluding them from research; inadequately remunerating them for participation in research; undertaking research that assumes difference; and not including their voice in the leadership design or implementation of research. This article builds on emancipatory, participatory and inclusive research methodologies to introduce a new human rights-based disability research methodology that presents a roadmap to overcome these problems and transform research into a means of rights realisation. It presents a protocol for the methodology that was created by the international Disability Human Rights Research Network. Finally, it explores many challenges that researchers may face when endeavouring to implement the methodology.
