Dear Mr. Mag. Ruppe,
I welcome your candidacy to no, and I wish you much success. Particularly necessary, I think, that people participate in shaping the policy, have a look for the “total assistance needed”. I therefore welcome strongly that you want to cover ALL types of disability “” and the group would seek cross-sectoral cooperation for the achievement of disability policy objectives.

I stand fully to the principle of self-representation, but on the groups point out, the need for their own self-determination and Self-advocacy for a comprehensive assistance. For people with a learning disability, there are already developments for Self-advocacy (“People First” groups), other area is, however, regularly “through the grate”. The group of the severely disabled on several occasions, for example, need to awake comatose or brain-injured people or those with severe brain organic diseases, a mouthpiece, a “representation of self representation”, wherein some of the a – I opposition but not- (n).

A record of your Interviews, I would like to add a necessary addition. You say: “People with learning disabilities are also in the midst of society into small, well-supervised residential units. Since Sweden is a role model”. We must not pretend to be (also according to the UN disability Convention, art. 19) where he/she “belongs”. Of course, discrimination in the mainstream society. But whether in small self-managed managed outpatient, residential care groups or in the place of origin or family of Choice (also with a supply of financial and human support), or to life, depending on the possibility of assistance in your own home must be the freedom of choice granted. Also Sweden, a model is needed, even in people with the most severe cognitive support.

Mag. Sebastian Ruppe joins the note to supported “self-representation” severely multi-handicapped people, and the constructive criticism of the formulation for the “accommodation” for people with learning disabilities.

Dear Mr Lichtenauer,
thank you for your encouraging, constructively critical post in which you give me important notes to Self-advocacy severe multiple disabled people and to me rightly to say that I have opened in my formulation of the “accommodation” for people with learning disabilities the idea of”space” rather closed.
This is exactly how I imagine the cooperation with “all of you out there”, because I'm not far from been an expert on All the/s and think I know everything, but, on the contrary, I can never stop learning and to expand my horizons in the field of disability.
People first and their Initiative at Home instead of home, which I appreciate very much! (for example, the design of the assistance benefit act) – would be for me a clear response and information partners in a possible. political work. And Sweden would be a first “education destination” from me!
With warm Regards from Graz
Sebastian Ruppe
