Ethical Practice

Our ethical practice is aligned with the social model of disability, facilitation of projects and communication, and protection of participants. We are in the process of revising and approving our ethical statement. But as a not-for-profit organisation we are waiting until we can meet with a legal team or person(s) to review our ethical statement to ensure we can best support out participants and audience. Below is a brief summary of our ethical practice of which has been influenced by organisations such as; PhotoVoice, ShapeArt

Introduction
Accessible Artistry is a not-for-profit organisation run by a group of disabled people in the UK. Formed January 2020 we have great hopes that we can work with the wider disability community

Our Aims:

Participatory and socially engaged methods

It is our belief that stories are best told by those who have

As opposed to interpreting a story, or simply quoting an individual, we believe that facilitating communication between a group/individual to an audience is the most ethical form of visual communication.

Participants will be more involved in a project, to ensure that their voice is heard. From the first mind-map of ideas, creation, to curation. We will be here every step of the way to offer our guidance. While this may vary in each project but it could be the teaching of different visual communication techniques, to portfolio reviews.

Social Model of Disability

Accessible Artistry supports and is informed by the social model of disability. Where by the inaccessibility of society and disability discrimination disables an individual - not their disability. This is opposition to the medical model of disability.

A more in-depth explanation of the social model of disability and it's role within the disability community can be found here.
