Need:
According to the Census 2001, in India, there are 2.19 crore persons with
disability (PWD) which accounts for 2.13% of the total population. PWD are
among the most marginalized sections of society cutting across caste,
creed and community. They belong to a heterogeneous group composed of
those born with a disability and those who acquire disability due to
micro-nutritional deficiencies or disease or accident or the trauma of
life events. Most people with disabilities are poor and the highest
concentration of poor people with disabilities are in the rural areas.
Because of the prevailing lack of understanding and concern for them,
rural persons with disabilities particularly those who are members of poor
families, are most vulnerable to economic and social handicaps.
Before eighties, the only mode of rehabilitation available to this section
was institutional rehabilitation. After eighties, a new approach known as
"Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR)" has come to vogue. And this
followed a series of measures initiated by the Government for the welfare
of the disabled. Among them the most important initiative was passing of
the Persons with Disabilities (PWD) Act, 1995, which envisages
equalization of opportunities, protection of rights and inclusion. Since
the passing of the PWD, ACT 1995, the Government has also been emphasizing
on the community based rehabilitation. To bring the PWD in to the
mainstream society a combination of both community based and welfare
oriented programmes are very essential. It is in this context that the
present training programme is planned. This course is mainly addressed to
officers working in the government sector and non-government sector for
the development of PWD and mainstreaming them in development.
