Breaking the chains, bridging the gaps: Giving a voice to persons with disabilities

Abstract

The day-to-day experiences of persons with disabilities (PWDs) are twice as burdensome due to the social exclusion they face. PWDs are confronted with dilemmas such as inadequate education, employment declination, and healthcare rejection, which make them marginalized individuals. PWDs struggle to fit in the classroom due to a lack of improvements to accommodate their specific demands. PWDs frequently experience discrimination even before they are permitted to join the workforce. Moreover, the demands of people with disabilities are frequently overlooked or ignored because of the paucity of healthcare facilities and equipment in the country. Some initiatives to address these problems have been made; however, proper implementation has been overlooked and is still underway. By doing this, we allow individuals with disabilities to gain assurance and a sense of togetherness.
