DAC-Manifesto-2021

Cafwyd trafodaethau o gylch arweinyddiaeth anabledd,
yn cynnwys pobl â phrofiad bywyd mewn penderfyniadau
ariannu a chynrychiolaeth ar banelau ym mhob grŵp
ffocws:
“Oni ddylai pobl sy’n deall am anabledd fod yn asesu?”
Datblygodd canfyddiadau o gylch grwpiau gwahanol â
namau gyda phryderon yn arbennig o gylch ‘namau cudd’.
“O’u hychwanegu, mae anableddau anweladwy’n beth
mawr yn ddiwylliannol hefyd. Fel y ffordd y gallech chi
gael eich trin yn awtomatig fel pe na baech chi’n anabl;
am rywun ag anabledd anweladwy fel gwahaniaeth
synhwyraidd.”
Discussions around disability leadership, involving
people with lived experience in funding decisions and
representation on panels was raised within each focus
group:
“Shouldn’t people who understand about disability be the
ones assessing?”
Perceptions around different impairment groups emerged,
with concerns particularly around ‘hidden impairment.’
“Adding on, unseen disabilities is a pretty big thing
culturally as well. Kind of the way you may be
automatically treated as though you are not disabled; for
someone with an unseen disability maybe like a sensory
difference.”
