From institutions to community living for persons with disabilities – perspectives from the ground - Summary

The European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights
(FRA) wanted to contribute to making steps to implement
deinstitutionalisation more effective, by capturing
concrete evidence of what is and what is
not working on the ground. To do this, the agency
conducted extensive fieldwork research in five EU
Member States at different stages of the deinstitutionalisation
process.
This summary report presents the key findings of
that fieldwork and the FRA opinions stemming from
them.
