Disability awareness survey Half of the people said, “Understanding of disability in Tokyo Para is not progressing” August 26, 16:37

When a private research institute conducted a survey of people with disabilities nationwide about next year's Tokyo Paralympics, half of the respondents said that understanding of people with disabilities did not advance at the convention, and that proportion was based on a survey I understood that it was increasing. Research institutes are analyzing that disability is born because disabled people have not realized social changes even one year before the convention.

A private research institute, the Research Institute for Persons with Disabilities, last month conducted a survey on the Internet of approximately 2,000 people with disabilities who use employment support services nationwide, and 374 responded.

According to it, when asked whether understanding of persons with disabilities would progress through the Tokyo Paralympics, those who answered that understanding progressed for all persons with disabilities decreased by 1 point from the October survey. While it was 12%, it was not progressing at all, it increased by 5 points to 17%, and if it did not progress very much, it increased by 7 points to 33%, and half of the negative answers.

Also, in response to the question of whether or not to watch the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, 45% of people want to watch both tournaments, while 40% do not want to watch both tournaments but want to watch the Paralympics. I don't think it was 11%, but those who were reluctant to watch the game increased by 10 points from Ototoshi, exceeding 51%.

The director of Shigao Toda, Director of the Research Institute for Persons with Disabilities, said, “Even if the event is about a year away, the person with disabilities has not realized a big change in society. I hope that more people will be able to expand their barrier-free so that more people can feel a little worried about people with disabilities. ”
