The University of Vienna’s science magazine Rudolphina explores in a recent article the challenges that people with intellectual disabilities face within the healthcare system. A lack of data, language barriers, and insufficient structures often mean that inclusion depends on the commitment of individuals – with far-reaching consequences for the quality of care.

In the interview, the head of our research group, Elisabeth Zeilinger, explains why participatory research is crucial for making these gaps visible and highlights the new approaches our team is developing to promote a more equitable healthcare system.
