Abstract
In this video, Chioma Ohajunwa discusses the role of the family and the home environment in how disability is understood and conceptualised. She discusses how the existing beliefs and understandings of disability within the family environment affects how disabled people are thought about and cared for, particularly when it comes to learning. She introduces how the attitudes and existing prejudices and beliefs of the family will affect how the education and care for disabled children will manifest.
