Advanced Training on Disability Inclusion

March 24, 2009

USAID funded an advanced training workshop on March 24, 2009, targeting non-governmental organizations. The objective of the workshop was to provide non-governmental organizations with the tools and methodologies necessary to employ people with disabilities in their organizations. The workshop covered the following themes: criteria to engineer a space in an inclusive manner, orientation and mobility for the visually impaired and the physically disabled, vocational and social communication, adapted modes of communication and access to information materials and adapting scopes of work. Many of organizations who attended the workshop will use the information as they plan on employing people with disabilities within their institutions, as part of USAID's Towards Inclusive Development in Lebanon program.
