Attitudes Regarding the Education and Employment of Persons with Disabilities.

This study aims to present European and Hungarian analyses of attitudes towards persons with disabilities in the areas of education and training. Previously published data on employment and degrees awarded in higher education also presents a clear overview of the effects of negative discrimination in Hungary. The second part of this study presents the ‘multi-discriminatory model’, referring to both Hungarian and foreign studies and experiences. The model is furthermore applicable to the examination of other groups, regarding whom there is a wide range of discriminatory attitudes. The third section of this study provides a short description of ongoing research findings and presents further planned steps.
