My colleagues and I have been mailing surveys and conducting interviews with the leaders of disability organisations for the last few years in Europe. We are planning on making the trip once again this summer and we are looking for organisations in Germany and France. These two EU Member States have been particularly difficault for us to secure appointments for interviews.
I would greatly appreciate any contact information that anyone in the disability community might have. We have great contacts in the Deaf community but our project is not fully focused on Deafness but on the larger disability movement and how organisations interact with government to get what they need and want.
Last year we were very successful and productive in Spain. Italy and Austria, in part because we found angels on the ground who were willing to act as liasons for us in securing interviews. We are hoping to repeat that success this summer.
Any assistance would be appreicated. If anyone would like the papers that came out of last year's work, please let me know and I will send them on.
Kind regards,
Mairin Veith
