Systematic review : legislation, policies, strategies & guidelines relating to disability in Malta

Abstract

This Disability Systemic Review is another building block that provides us with a clearer picture of the data. In this repository we are seeking to further our knowledge in this field of study. ‘Disability’ is a very complex issue and these last 20 years has received a great deal of attention. The development and expansion of services needs to be commensurate with the knowledge base that we need to develop so that we can be in a better position to offer social policy recommendations. As a Faculty in collaboration with CRPD we are walking the talk and finding ways how to democratise our knowledge. Taking our data back to the community so that it serves as a way of resolving issues is what academic and our alma mater is about. The commitment of our academics, administrators and research support officers in this endeavour is second to none. We manage to produce so much data because we are not shy to work together and navigate around each other’s differences to produce high quality knowledge.
