Modelo social como alternativa para el desarrollo de la persona con discapacidad, Callao. Perú

People with disabilities have to deal daily with physical, attitude, social and political barriers, since their integral development is limited. The objective of this paper is to analyze the importance of the social model as an alternative for the development of the person with disability, Callao, Peru. The methodology used was a qualitative approach, case study method, the technique used was the interview with their respective guide, we have also coexisted as reporting units: a State official of the Municipal office of attention to the person with disabilities Omaped Provincial Municipality of Callao, a former regional coordinator of the Council for the integration of the person with disabilities Conadis Callao, four people with different types of disability and two people without disabilities. Data processing was carried out through the Atlas Ti-7 qualitative analysis program. In this way, we proceeded with the triangulation of the related theories and the previous works, resulting in that the studies were consistent with the investigation. It should be noted that multidisciplinary authors such as Abberley (1987), Oliver (1998) and Palacios (2008) founded a social model like the one proposed. In the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities CDPD (UN, 2006), these persons were recognized as subjects of Human Rights. Currently there are advances in the State and society regarding the dignified treatment, universal accessibility and inclusion of the person with disability, but the barriers still exist, even more because the authorities do not comply with the regulations to achieve a better quality of life. Therefore, it is necessary to specify that public policies based on the social model would constitute an alternative for the development of the person with disability.
