International Disabled Day 2017

International Day of People with Disabilities is an exceptional time to celebrate the achievements and contributions as well as increase public awareness, understanding, and acceptance of people with disabilities. International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPWD) stands by its belief that a person is not inherently ‘disabled’…disability is NOT a feature of a person.  We at a guess that people have health impairments: some of us want wheelchairs to mobilize; seeing-eye nature; assistive technology –glasses to read; or medication to manage and feel comfortable. All people have different health impairments at some time in their lives.  The difference is that most of the time your health impairment does not stop you from working, being included or participating in your community. 

People with disabilities exists to certify that environmental and social hurdles are identified and to help everybody to work together to overcome them.  We will never eliminate health impairments…on the other hand, by overcoming barriers, at that moment we eradicate disablement. 

Otherwise, organizing seminars and conferences not every year benefits disabled people. Therefore, those promises and assurances that are given to those people with disabilities at these seminars and conferences must take practical steps on those pledges and promises.
