Abstract

The problem of discrimination is relevant for Ukrainian society. According to the results of the study “Human Rights in Ukraine”, conductedby the Democratic Initiatives Foundation. Ilka Kucheriva and the Ukrainian Sociological Service (commissioned by the UN Development Program in Ukraine) state that only a quarter of the population of Ukraine takes itseriously. Based on the analysis of legal documents, scientific literature,we formulate the term “discrimination” as a situation in which a person /people on various grounds (race, skin color, political, religious and otherbeliefs, disability, etc.) is / are restricted in recognition, realization oruse of their rights and freedoms.Discrimination based on disability is defined as eiblism, which characterizesa person by focusing only on his or her disabilities and puts his or her needs to the background in comparison with other people. The author’s experience in teaching and raising a child with hearing disability is described. Ways to ensure the full realization of all human rights and fundamental freedoms by people with disabilities, ways to overcome the eiblism of people with hearing disabilities in society are proposed.
