dc.description.abstractIn the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, it is mentioned the need for workplace inclusion for people with disabilities. Moreover, the inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities in the labor market challenges ableist conventions and embraces diversity as an accelerator for social justice and economic growth. The cooperative efforts of the Project No Barriers to Employment further show the intricate legal, social, and pedagogical landscapes that influence the professional inclusion of People with Intellectual Disability across different countries and demonstrate a commitment to reframing work in a way that values everyone. Neither this book nor any other should offer instructions on how to “normalize” the lives of People with Intellectual Disability so that they blend in with the workforce. Instead, books should start by developing methods for recognizing people’s unique qualities so that these differences are incorporated into the definition of labor in today’s society.en
