Media – especially online, social & mobile media – is strategically important for the work of civil society organizations (CSOs) (including Disabled Peoples Organizations – DPOs)
disability perspectives on media are relatively new & not well understood – but there is a long history to media innovation by people with disabilities & many exciting things happening now
• What role does media play in social & political transformations of disability;
• How does media portray disability, now? How does this work in different societies (e.g. Australia, Indonesia)?
• What role do CSOs/DPOs have in changing disability stereotypes in the media?
• What is the role of media and communications – especially social, online, mobile media – in the work of DPOs, advocacy and policy?
• How can DPOs best harness online & other media?

‘Stop dan renungkan: Sebagai seorang wartawan, Anda dapat membantu mempengaruhi pandangan dan opini publik sehingga penyandang disabilitas dapat menikmati hak yang sama untuk berpartisipasi dalam semua sektor masyarakat seperti halnya warga negara yang lain. Melalui peliputan, Anda dapat mendukung hak-hak penyandang disabilitas.’
[Translation: ‘Stop and consider: As a journalist you can help influence public opinion and views so that people with disabilities enjoy the same right to participate in all sectors of society as other citizens. Through your reporting you can support the rights model of disability.’]
