IN BRIEF

Assessing Political Bodies and Disability Rights: Insights from Trento and the Luca Coscioni Association

Luca Coscioni Association has launched the podcast “Corpi Politici,” exploring disability rights, citizenship, and social inclusion through personal stories. The first season, consisting of four episodes, addresses key issues such as accessibility, assistive devices, independent living, and mobility, highlighting ongoing advocacy efforts, including a legal case that allowed a student with severe mobility impairments to study remotely.

The series also discusses family caregiving challenges, featuring insights from Rocco Berardo on resource shortages affecting approximately 2.2 million caregivers in Italy. It references court rulings mandating municipalities to implement Barrier-Free Plans (PEBA), supported by lawyer Alessandro Gerardi. The podcast is available on major streaming platforms and YouTube.
