Development,
Cultural Values and Disability: The Example of
Afghanistan
This paper assumes a view of development that is much
more than material benefits, and is the sum of people's
own aspirations, efforts, and learning towards bettering
themselves materially, socially, intellectually, and
spiritually. Based on lessons learned in a large
Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) program run under
the auspices of UNDP/UNOPS and implemented by NGOs, the
paper examines how far the program is relevant to local
values. www.eenet.org.uk...colerdge1.shtml
Afghanistan's
Forgotten Children
The Afghan Amputee Bicyclists for Rehabilitation and
Recreation, AABRAR,has trained over 2000 disabled people
to ride a bike ... Disabled people in Afghanistan have
tended to be hidden by their families. They have been
regarded as a source of shame. But Afghan society is
beginning to change its attitudes, if only because so
many people have become disabled or lost limbs over the
past two decades of war.
