Résumé

En tant qu’étudiant autiste en train d’effectuer une maîtrise, je me suis concentré sur notre compréhension de la notion d’expertise. Je m’intéressais plus particulièrement à la manière dont les décisions politiques en matière d’éducation étaient prises sans la participation des personnes autistes. J’ai étudié les ouvrages utilisés pour prendre ces décisions et j’ai interrogé des personnes autistes pour savoir qui, selon elles, devait être considéré comme un(e) expert(e) en matière d’autisme. J’ai découvert que les politiques étaient façonnées par des experts qui avaient peu ou pas d’expérience directe avec l’autisme et les personnes autistes, et qui n’avaient pas souvent des liens personnels avec les approches qu’ils recommandaient. Je soutiens que les personnes autistes doivent être impliquées dans la conception, l’exécution, la mise en oeuvre et la diffusion de la recherche, ainsi que dans les décisions politiques.
