“Home page: because the home is a page to be written”: analysis of a pilot experience of coexistence between young people with and without disabilities

Abstract

This work analyzes “Home page” an experience of coexistence that involved 15 young people (including 8 with medium-mild disabilities) living in the province of Bergamo. The survey, through a semi-structured interview, direct observation and participation during the equipes, collected the participants’ opinion which was analyzed and grouped on the basis of the topic dealt with and the similarity of the concepts expressed (Tusini , 2006).
The research outputs stimulate policy makers in order to think about the issues of cohabitation, considering what are the best practices that can offer adequate solutions to the needs of different categories of people. Responsible welfare can promote shared interdependence and enhance vulnerabilities as an opportunity for building equitable solutions for all members of the community.
