Challenge

Due to ill-built public facilities and infrastructure, the disable people were trapped in their house and could not get access to library, cinema, part, school, hospital, etc. They not only suffer from physical impediment, but also psychical setbacks: inferiority. To make things worse, the physical impediment and psychical setbacks reinforce each other and form a vicious circle. which makes a kind of invisible segregation for the disable in the world.

Solution

This project will try to break the vicious circle by raising their awareness about the Convention of the Rights of Persons with DisabilitiesCRPD) and building self-confidence via workshop. To encourage them go outside, we will financing them travel cost in group. In addition to that, we will buy painting kit and music instruments for them and hire teachers to teach them at the aim of getting self-fulfilment, no matter through music learning or painting works.

Long-Term Impact

Like the Chinese saying that to teach people fishing rather than give them a fish. This project aims breaking the vicious circle made of physical impediment and psychical setbacks. Once the chains that been shattered, their inner power and self-confidence will grow. What's more, the change happened to them will create impact on other disable people. When they go out frequently, they are no long segregated from the invisible wall and live a life with dignity.
