title: [Disability, vacation and travel--goals of a humane travel culture].
abstract: In our society, holiday-making and travelling have become civic rights. Handicapped people however frequently find this "civic right to holiday travelling" difficult to implement in the usual manner. Mobility barriers, behavioural uncertainty in the social-communicative contact of disabled and non-disabled people but also financial limitations act as disincentives. It therefore is necessary that disabled persons' organizations, non-profit and commercial service providers but also the Federal government step-up their involvement in this field and get efforts toward improvement started, an endeavour that could be coordinated and inspired by the Tourism and People with Disabilities working group established in 1989.
