Social Participation Is a Right, Not a Skill
In this episode of OT Evidence in Action, hosts Thandi and Sara explore the concept of social participation in paediatric occupational therapy through the lens of a compelling systematic review by Ana Cristina Cardoso da Silva and Fátima Corrêa Olivera, titled “Social Participation and Occupational Therapy: What Are We Talking About?”
This article challenges traditional views of social skills and reframes participation as a deeply contextual, political, and justice-oriented concept in OT.

Tune in as Thandi and Sara discuss:
- How social participation is shaped by inequality, exclusion, and cultural norms
- Practical ways to assess and support meaningful participation
- Creative interventions that promote social participation an inclusion
- Real-life stories that highlight the transformative power of participation
Whether you're an OT student or an experienced clinician, this conversation will inspire you to think more broadly about your role in supporting every child's right to belong.
