ABSTRACT
This chapter begins by presenting the results from the some case studies, which are then analysed through the concept of sexual citizenship. The analysis shows how the abstract concept of sexual citizenship can be understood in relation to disabled people’s sexual rights generally and sexual facilitation specifically. The overarching international policy context is one driver in terms of conceptualising and advocating disability rights, sexual rights and human rights. For sexual rights specifically there is no convention of this kind, but the World Health Organization’s definitions of sexuality and sexual health, and recommendations for how to implement sexuality-related rights are often used in state-based sexuality policy work. The central principle in disability rights advocacy ‘Nothing about us without us’ seems to be less relevant when it comes to sexual rights. A lack of collaboration is characteristic of the English case and perhaps a reason for less policy attention.
