MAP India (Museum of Art & Photography)<\/a> commissioned the ReReeti Foundation to conduct a research study about the needs and expectations that people with disabilities have of museums in India. Among various fundamental essentials like education, employment, mobility and so on, leisure and recreation are among the lowest of priorities for those with disabilities. The study aims to \u201cunderstand the challenges that people with disabilities face while accessing museums and other arts and cultural spaces as well as the expectations that [they] have from museums.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study uses qualitative methodology and questionnaires. It includes respondents across a range of disabilities: those with visual impairments, orthopaedic disabilities, neurodiverse individuals, those with mental illnesses as well as deaf and hard of hearing individuals, as well as educators, parents, and accessibility consultants.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13126,"parent":0,"template":"","report_topics":[507,508,503,512,517],"class_list":["post-16296","reports","type-reports","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","report_topics-audience-development","report_topics-diversity-and-inclusion","report_topics-festival-management","report_topics-health-and-safety","report_topics-legal-and-policy"],"yoast_head":"\nInclusion in Museums: Perspectives of People with Disabilities - Festivals From India<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Inclusion in Museums: Perspectives of People with Disabilities - Festivals From India\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"MAP India (Museum of Art & Photography) commissioned the ReReeti Foundation to conduct a...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\/blog\/report\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Festivals From India\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-08-08T12:07:02+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Copy-of-Conservation-Lab-2.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1279\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"712\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/\",\"name\":\"Inclusion in Museums: Perspectives of People with Disabilities - Festivals From India\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/02\\\/Copy-of-Conservation-Lab-2.png\",\"datePublished\":\"2024-03-08T08:28:29+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-08-08T12:07:02+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/report\\\/inclusion-in-museums-perspectives-of-people-with-disabilities\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/02\\\/Copy-of-Conservation-Lab-2.png\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.festivalsfromindia.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2023\\\/02\\\/Copy-of-Conservation-Lab-2.png\",\"width\":1279,\"height\":712,\"caption\":\"Art Is Life: New Beginnings.
