This book examines how intellectual disability is affected by
stigma and how this stigma has developed. Around two per cent of
the world's population have an intellectual disability but their
low visibility in many places bears witness to their continuing
exclusion from society. This prejudice has an impact on the family
of those with an intellectual disability as well as the individual
themselves and affects the well-being and life chances of all those
involved. This book provides a framework for tackling intellectual
disability stigma in institutional processes, media representations
and other, less overt, settings. It also highlights the anti-stigma
interventions which are already in place and the central role that
self-advocacy must play.
