Abilities Melas are the need of the hour for the Empowerment of PWDs

Dear ALL

Goodmorning.

The urgent need in the process of Empowering the PWDs is to show their skills which mostly leads for their revenue generation and thus economical empowerment. In addition to the on going Melas, probably we all need to think this as a process instead of an event.  

In this direction, the need is to move towards the concept of cooperatives by the PWDs / Parents / NGOs etc. To increase access, cooperatives need to be planned at all levles including: National, State, District, Mandal and even at Villages level. All the concerned authorities or consumers can support this concept by alloting certain products based on their skills and local needs.  This certainly helps both the groups i.e. producers and consumers. 

There exists several successful examples before us starting from the level of Colony / Housing Society itself. 

Looking forward for better networking and thus empower the PWDs for better living with sustaianble approaches.......

with thanks

DEVELOPMENTAL COMMUNICATION

Dear All,

Communication is the most powerful tool to enhance the capacities of the individuals / organization and finally the country.  The logic goes that, commnication helps to build: the capacities, mobilize resources, independent living, better sustainability, better quality of life and thus finally the wellness of every one. 

The Information and Communicaton Technology (ICT) helps to utiize the modernized technology in improving the access and thus to get the entitlements as a RIGHT at all levels.

Looking forward to work with the modern communication technology for reaching the un-reached with better service delivery system suting to their issues, skills, needs and living environment.
