“…In conclusion, our paper contributes a new perspective to geographers' ongoing interest in questions surrounding the self-determination of people with disability. Complementing geographers' interest in people with cognitive disabilities' negotiation of everyday spaces as a key feature of their self-determination (Hall, 2005;Holt, 2007;Power & Bartlett, 2018;Wiesel & Bigby, 2016;Wilton et al, 2018), our paper highlights the significant but often overlooked temporalities of self-determination. Our analysis points to the need for careful geographical engagement with the complexity of decision-making by people with cognitive disability, acknowledging the elusive lines that often separate 'support' from 'substitution' of decision-making.…”

“…In geographical scholarship there has been a long engagement with the sociocultural dimensions of decision-making by people with cognitive disability. Geographical analysis has focused more broadly on issues surrounding the selfdetermination of people with cognitive disability, through analyses of their agency in 'self-building' spaces (Power & Bartlett, 2018); participation in art (Macpherson et al, 2016), peer-support and self-advocacy (Power et al, 2016); the negotiation of everyday spaces (Hall, 2005;Holt, 2007;Power & Bartlett, 2018;Wiesel & Bigby, 2016;Wilton et al, 2018); and the co-production of knowledge (Holt et al, 2019;Murray, 2019). Despite geographers' ongoing interest in questions surrounding the self-determination of people with cognitive disability, explicit and direct links to supported decision-making have rarely, if ever, been drawn.…”

In many societies, people with cognitive disability have been presumed to lack reasoned decision-making capacity. Consequently, substituted decision-making laws and practices have traditionally authorised some people such as parents, guardians or medical professionals, to make decisions on their behalf. Several countries are now moving towards an alternative supported decision-making paradigm whereby people with different cognitive abilities are supported to make decisions that reflect as much as possible their 'will, preferences and rights'. In this paper we examine how geographical thinking about temporalities might illuminate some of the legal, ethical and practical complexities of supported decisionmaking. The paper draws on qualitative data from interviews with people with intellectual disabilities or acquired brain injury, and those who support them in making decisions. We examine how temporal scales and boundaries shape the determination of decision-making capacity; how decision-makers' 'will and preferences' are interpreted by supporters; and how the labour of support for decision-making is organised. We argue that further geographical engagement with supported decision-making can help significantly advance this important disability rights agenda.

“…Taking photos of the places, activities and/or people they engaged with, collaborators labelled/with disabilities’ use of the tablet offered a different entry point into meaning (Rose, ), simultaneously capturing the material features of the urban environment and the subjective life‐world through the selection, focus and framing of images. This combination reveals “context” and “content” – helping us identify important spatial dimensions of how collaborators labelled/with disabilities experience the city (Wilton et al., ). Collecting information in multiple ways facilitates alternative routes of expression and presentation of information (Booth & Booth, ) – supporting access (essential for co‐production with disabled people).…”

We engage with scholarship in participatory geographies and critical disability studies to consider the difficulties and prospects of co-producing knowledge with people with intellectual disabilities in a project examining their uses of urban public space. The research employed an inclusive, collaborative design and had an explicit focus on social change, articulated in the research process (e.g., the development of research and self-advocacy skills) and outcomes (e.g., lobbying to improve material conditions, challenging ableist assumptions about "intellectual disability"). Our analysis highlights three tensions: the time/spaces constraints faced in "slow" participatory work, the nature and duration of relationships among collaborators and the shifting relations of power and influence within the project.We reflect critically on how these tensions were negotiated and what lessons might be learned for participatory practice.

“…La participación en actividades deportivas ha mostrado varios efectos positivos en personas con DI (Bowers et al, 2016; Crawford, Burns y Fernie, 2015; Pérez-Cruzado y Cuesta-Vargas, 2016). Las visitas con apoyo a centros comerciales contribuyen a satisfacer necesidades de las personas con DI (Wilton et al, 2018). Las personas con DI valoran el empleo como una fuente de ocupación, satisfacción y establecimiento de relaciones sociales y amistades (Iriarte, O'Brien, McConkey, Wolfe y O'Doherty, 2014).…”

Mediante revisión de la literatura y un análisis con expertos profesionales, expertos por experiencia y potenciales usuarios, se elaboró un modelo breve de asistencia personal para ser ejecutado por agentes comunitarios con supervisión profesional. El modelo considera actividades en los espacios habituales de las personas y sus familias, con apoyo para el uso de recursos formales e informales de la comunidad y el refuerzo de redes de apoyo que continúen operando una vez que termine la intervención. Con una duración de 9 meses, el modelo se desarrolla mediante un proceso de 3 etapas: 1) establecimiento de vínculo y elaboración de un plan individualizado, 2) implementación del plan y 3) refuerzo de los aprendizajes de los participantes y traspaso a redes de apoyo. Se discute la factibilidad de la aplicación del modelo en países latinoamericanos y la necesidad de realizar estudios que evalúen su implementación.
