People with some type of disability are considered vulnerable because they have many limitations (physical or cognitive) that make their life in society difficult. This is because society was built in favor of those who have the full functioning of the body and mind, people with disabilities cannot be favored in this type of society, in addition to being more fragile biologically and socially, when compared to people without any type of disability. .
We can use a very simple example. Imagine that during a test to get a scholarship, the school does not have chairs and tables adapted for wheelchair users. Students who do not have a physical disability would have an advantage in the test, as the chair would not be an issue for them.
The vulnerabilities and difficulties that people with disabilities face will only be reduced, when there are effective public policies on the situation of these people. It does not help that we create strategies to help them, if there is not the full encouragement of public policies that provide integration factors for these people, in addition to providing additional education for people without disabilities, so that they understand the difficulties that the disabled face and that it is necessary to establish improvements in society so that they can live fully in it.
