The development of a human rights paradigm has defined this relationship between a discriminatory and excluding environment and human rights violations, which affects people with disabilities in an ongoing manner. The following table illustrates this relationship: Person with a Deficiency (physical, sensory, mental) DISABLING CULTURAL AND SOCIAL ENVIRON- MENT CAUSE OR AGGRAVATING FACTOR Person with a disability -Made invisible, -Underestimated, -Discriminated against, -Segregated, -Excluded, -Converted into an object of pity and charity, -Converted into a patient, -Annulled or restricted rights, -Loss of citizenship, -Impeded or limited participation, -Object of assistance and social protection, -Excluded from the national development agenda. AN ENVIRONMENT THAT MULTIPLIES HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS • In other words, a DISABILITY (D) is a variable that results from the interaction between a variable that has to do with a person’s functionality (FL: Functional Limitation) and another variable that is related to the environment (E) and social organization. • To illustrate the impact that the environment has on the relationship between a disability and a functional limitation “mathematically,” we use the following equation (Marcelo Medeiros, 2005): D = FL x E More barriers, more disability: If we assign a value of “zero” to an imaginary environment that has no barriers, the product of this equation will always be zero, regardless of the value assigned to a person’s functional limitation. However, as the value assigned to the environment increases, the greater the functional impact that the disability has on the life of the person. As we see here: FL 1 x E 0 = D 0 FL 5 x E 0 = D 0 FL 1 x E 1 = D 1 FL 5 x E 5 = D 25 28
