In this opinion piece, BindiMaps CEO Anna Wright highlights the critical distinction between the medical and social models of disability. While the medical model views disability as an individual health issue, focusing on medical treatments and rehabilitation, the social model shifts the focus to societal and environmental barriers that hinder full participation. Wright argues that addressing these barriers is crucial for creating an inclusive society where disability is not a personal tragedy but a reflection of our collective responsibility to design accessible environments and systems.

In this article, our CEO & Co-founder, Anna Wright, challenges the belief that disability is “wrong” or needs fixing. They advocate for recognising individuals with disabilities for their capabilities and unique experiences, promoting a more inclusive society. Through the “social model of disability,” our CEO emphasises that societal barriers, not the condition itself, create disability. Join us in changing cultural norms and embracing diversity in all its forms.
