Profile overview
I am very glad to introduce myself through this mail. I am Kannadasan V P from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. I have been working in the Disability space since 2011. I am exclusively working for persons with spinal cord injuries but that has not limited my knowledge to understand the issues of other persons with disabilities. I have worked extensively in the space of rehabilitation both in institution and community-based rehabilitation. I have built a robust network among people with spinal cord injuries across India. I registered for my Doctoral Studies with the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai in 2017. It is a prestigious Social Work school in India. My broad area of research interest is Disability and Sexuality. I am researching how the sexual pleasure and intimacy of men with spinal cord injury get affected post-injury and how physical rehabilitation is addressing these issues. All the given time in my experience I noticed one thing that it is rehabilitation or network, education or research assistive devices or accessibility there is a dearth of knowledge, human resource, and technology. In particular, the Asian Regions need to be developed in all the above aspects. I am holding a Master's Degree in Social Work.
