Disability awareness

Many people have no information about disability issues, that’s why people with disability are facing discrimination and isolation in the community. Due to lack of knowledge many people in our community treat disabled people with prejudice. Disabled people often face discrimination and isolation in the community. Due to the above reasons and many others, Songambele has decided to embark on journey of creating awareness in the community in order to help community members to understand, accept and involve people with disability in the community activities. People with disability have much more to offer if given a chance to do so.

 

We work together with our partners to organise and participate in the following events in raising awareness:

  • African Child

  • International Kili Marathon

  • World Spinal Cord Injury Day

  • World AIDS Day

  • International Day of Disabled Persons

  • International Women's Day

  • World Autism Awareness Day
