PINILLA-RONCANCIO, Mónica. Disability and poverty: two related conditions. A review of the literature. rev.fac.med. [online]. 2015, vol.63, suppl.1, pp.113-123. ISSN 0120-0011. https://doi.org/10.15446/revfacmed.v63n3sup.50132.
The relationship between disability and poverty has been recognised in the literature since the 1990s. Empirical evidence supporting the existence of this relationship has increased in the last decade; however, there is still a lack of knowledge of how these two conditions interact and what the causal mechanisms that participate in the creation of this relationship are. This article aims to explore how the concepts of disability and poverty are related and it analyses the bidirectional relationship between these two conditions, how it is mediated by social exclusion and what empirical evidence supports this relationship around the world and in Latin America (LA).
