One of the most important stages in the participation of disabled people in social life is the employment process. The individual participating in employment is involved in the production process and can gain a place in social life with the job position he/she has obtained. Within the scope of the OTİGED Project, an analysis carried out to reveal the positions of people with disabilities, especially individuals with autism in social life and the labour market. The main purpose of this analysis study is to identify policy measures regarding the introduction of international examples and the general situation in the employment of individuals with autism, and ensuring their integration between the social life and the labour market.
A policy research report has been prepared in relation to this analysis study. This report includes current situation, country practices and literature search on successful models used in the employment of individuals with autism from world countries. It is aimed to support the participation of young people with autism in employment and social life with the works to be done and the intellectual outputs to be produced.
The original of the Analysis Study and Policy Research Report was prepared in English and other language translations were made by the project partners. You can access the optional language versions of the report from the links below.
