Daniel Pateisky is a lecturer at the University of Vienna, Austria, an advocate in Austrian and international disability policy and social work, and a member of Vienna's Independent Monitoring Committee for the Implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. He holds a doctorate in Sociology from the University of Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, that focussed on international disability human rights and drew on his interdisciplinary background in development studies and linguistics. His research revolves around critical, post-colonial, and participatory approaches to dis/ability, international translation of human rights, and the nexus between older persons' rights, care labour, and migration. He has been assisting young people with chronic illnesses, consulting in student disability services in higher education, and helping develop reasonable accommodation measures.
