“There are no studies or research about the exact and accurate number of disabled persons. During conferences, we usually end up issuing recommendations and that is it. Even in other Arab countries the issue of the disabled is neglected and ignored. People need awareness about this issue. In London, for instance, a bus stops and the driver gets out to help a disabled passenger get into the bus,” said Ahmad Al-Farsi, Chairman of the Al Ata Academy and Channel.
This is a an organization that strives to ensure that Persons With Disabilities of working abilities are empowered economically. We believe that through economic empowerment especially entrepreneurship and employment, persons with disabilities can attain an independent life, and be able to make choices for their lives. In this struggle, we urge all people of good will to join and support us to get started or move forward.
