Community-based rehabilitation

Within the framework of its community-based rehabilitation activities, Handicap International intends to encourage people with disabilities to actively participate in community and social life. The organisation has worked in cooperation with the local authorities and associations for people with disabilities in Sichuan, Tibet and Guangxi. Awareness campaigns and training courses have been conducted in universities and schools. Lastly, support groups for parents have been set up, as have activities designed for young people and children with disabilities.
