OVIEDO-CACERES, Maria del Pilar; ARIAS-VALENCIA, Samuel Andrés y HERNANDEZ-QUIRAMA, Andrea. Historical configuration of visual impairment and the implications for public health. Rev. Univ. Ind. Santander. Salud [online]. 2019, vol.51, n.3, pp.252-261. ISSN 0121-0807. https://doi.org/10.18273/revsal.v51n3-2019008.
People with disabilities have been subjected to different looks, which account for how historically they have been significant and placed in social reality. This work aims to reflect on the configuration of the visual disability construct within the theoretical models on the subject and the implications that have had on the way in which it is intervened from public health. The model of functional diversity as well as intersectionality are key elements that must be included in the reflection of the work in alternative public health, as they allow to make a comprehensive exercise of the reality of people with functional diversity and having tools to overcome discrimination and establish the conditions for the guarantee of their human rights, fundamental aspects from the political and technical perspective of public health.
