The social model is well suited for analyzing the problem of disability and poverty in that it pays attention to the context in which the life of the poor person with a disability is lived, and thus makes it possible to focus on the relative as well as the relational aspects of poverty. The weakness of the social model has recently been discussed, pointing to the lack of balance and thus the absence of the individual and his/her experience in the discourse. The new and interesting aspect of International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health is the possibility to downplay the medical–social model distinction and rather to view the individual with a disability as a whole person with individual and contextual/social differences that contribute to the manifestation of the discrimination of human beings globally.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
