PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE PROCEEDING:
This page is an ongoing attempt to understand the needs and gaps in the disability sector through open collaboration with disabled persons, caregivers, organisations working with persons with disabilities and interested individuals.
Aim: To democratise knowledge production with the belief that everyone can play a part in better understanding, and contributing to the disability sector in Singapore. It also aims to improve awareness about the disability landscape in general, ongoing initiatives to meet gaps, and to spur collaborations between partners.
Method: Through scanning existing literature (reports, research, news articles) and several discussions & roundtables with interested stakeholders, the following can be achieved:
- Needs can be identified, articulated and revised
- Resources can be mapped to those needs
- Evaluations on how well resources fit needs can be performed (e.g., are they adequate or inadequate, are there enough/too many services?)
- Ideas and solutions to fill gaps can be brainstormed and gathered
Who can contribute: Anyone, as long as you would like to help articulate what the needs in the disability sector are (or at least, a lead) along with existing support and gaps in tackling those needs.
