Learning Unit n°5 of LEARNING MODULE N° 2: “The Access Requirements of Tourists and Customer Care”
Objective
The goal of this learning unit is to understand the role of ICF in modifying the consideration of the person with disabilities from the Medical to the Social model of disability, granting the recognition of the person as an individual whose exclusion from society is due to the reduced opportunities provided by the built and social environment. The unit shows how to behave towards persons with disabilities with the capacity to understand that disability is not the problem of a minority but it is the exclusion of some individuals from actively participating in society.
