| Description: | Handicap International exists to support the needs of disabled people in countries affected by poverty and conflict.
We provide both emergency relief and long term development support.
Prevention
Handicap International aims to eliminate preventable causes of disability.
For example, we provide mine risk awareness in countries affected by conflict.
We are also active in promoting measures to reduce the effects of road traffic accidents in developing countries.
Rehabilitation
Handicap International aims to meet the needs as well as the rights of disabled people.
For instance, where relevant, we provide physiotherapy services which enable disabled people to become mobile and able to access services.
Inclusion
Handicap International is working towards the full inclusion and participation of disabled people in all aspects of life. For example, as well as supporting Disabled People’s Organisations (DPOs), we encourage mainstream organisations to include disabled people |
