Abstract: Employment is a major key factor for People with Disabilities in their aim to live independently. Many statistical reports from across various sectors show that most PWD are unemployed even though they should have the ability and potential to find suitable employment. This article illustrates a social movement of PWD to enforce their rights to work. This historical report approach shows the situation of PWD since a group was formed, 1947, to lobby the government for their rights, resulting in the government enacting the Empowerment of People with Disabilities Act 2007. New Social Movement is used as conceptual framework of the report. The disability movement was formed by each group of disabilities later united as National Council of Persons with Disabilities called Disabilities Thailand (DTH). DTH campaigned for Law, Policy and Practice to promote employment with 3 strategies; 1) Collaborating 2) Pressure group and 3) Imply international knowledge. Collective movement of PWD success to promote law and policy, but employment rate among PWD’s just only 13%. It’s challenging for leaders with disabilities, Ministry of Labour, Ministry of Social Development and Human Security and related organization to learn from each other, synergy, find the practical ways and moving forward together to promote work and employment for peoples with disabilities. PWD would be able to live independently, be economy productive member with full potential to create an inclusive society.
