Review and synthesis of the implementation of policies supporting independent living for disabled people with Europe (2009)

Whilst working at the University of Bristol, Ruth and colleagues were commissioned by the European Commission’s ANED group to undertake a review of the progress within EU member states on policies to support independent living. ANED (the Academic Network of European Disability experts) supports pan-European policy development in collaboration with the EC’s Disability Unit. Data was collected via questionnaires to 28 countries and the final report and executive summary are published here.
