dc.description.abstract |
Rehabilitation services for people with communication disabilities (PWCD) in many majority-world countries are extremely limited, with speech-language pathology little known. Collaborations between clinicians and services in majority- and minority-world countries provide important contributions to developing rehabilitation services in the majority world for PWCD. The effectiveness of such partnerships may be influenced by a number of elements within the relationship. This paper presents insights from a group of majority-world speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in Ghana on establishing and maintaining links between majority- and minority-world services and clinicians. The framework of three sustainability dimensions (service environment, socio-cultural-political environment, and economic environment) is used to consider how SLP relationships across majority–minority worlds can be meaningful and lasting. Readers are encouraged to adopt the perspective of SLPs from within the country to consider the impact and sustainability of majority–minority world partnerships. | |
