ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book illustrates a plurality of different activisms on injustices occurring across the life-course that cannot always be ascribed as ‘disability’, but overall give a message of resistance. It explopres a flavour of what the ordinary work of activism is about, whether you are an undergraduate student or have been a member of a disability rights organisation. Ensuring the vibrancy of disability activism and collective disability movement implies continuing to grow a culture of dissent, dialogue, disagreement and discussion. The most notable has been the rise of the independent researcher or community activist who is working on disability issues, often who does not call themselves ‘activist’. These people are working alone and often with no funding and support from larger charities, academics and government institutions.
