| Summary: | <p>The situation of disabled people, and especially disabled women, was ambiguous over the centuries and highly diversified, both in the social attitudes towards them, as in the recognition for their active participation in social life, and the ability to achieve professional and personal self-fulfillment. Current times, despite the postulate of equal-rights for disabled people in every possible sphere of life and unrestricted access to knowledge, culture, education and employment, put disabled people, just because of the consequences of disability, in the position of lesser chances and limitations for realization of their individual plans, and achieving goals established by today's society and themselves. Because of that the article undertakes an attempt to explain the existing minimal activity of visually impaired women in the light of their commitment to social and professional life.</p> |
