Two Nepali NGOs have tested and have come up with the output that inclusive education is a good start to meet that end. The Case of Nepal More activities are there now in both the CRC field and in the field of disability in Nepal. This is also the crucial case for MS-Nepal with its strong commitment toward meeting the needs of disabled people by including disability as a cross cutting issue in its new policy paper. This initiative is seen as a human rights issue and certainly is a continuation of the commitment to children with special needs and disabilities as can be seen in the MS support to Basic and Primary Education Project under the Special Education Programme. The CRC perspective Nepal ratified the CRC in 1990 and is now in the process of preparing its second report on CRC status and progress to the CRC Committee in Geneva. The Ministry of Children, Women and Social Welfare is responsible for preparing a report, which should be submitted this year. The Ministry has recognised that it will be beneficial to include all relevant ministries and I/NGOs in the preparation of the report. The first step in this process was a planning workshop that took place on 21 March 2000. Resource persons from Nepal and a host of other countries participated in the workshop.

Search www Search Aarogya Ask The Doc Catalogue Drug Search Sitemap ... International Day For Disabled Persons Articles Tackling Autism In India Autism is a complex developmental disability that appears during the first three years of life. It is the result of a neurological disorder that affects communication skills. Autism is four times more prevalent in boys than girls. Children and adults with autism have difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, social interaction, and leisure or play activities. The disorder makes it hard for them to communicate with others and relate to the outside world. In some cases, aggressive and/or self-injurious behavior could result. Persons with autism may exhibit repeated body movements (hand flapping, rocking), unusual responses to people, or attachments to objects, and resistance to changes in routine. A center for autistic children exists at Priyanj Ashiana [Tel: (022) 884 1193], Sanket Building, Evershine Nagar, Malad (W), Mumbai. Here, children receive structured intervention on a one-to-one basis. A monthly parent enrichment program has also been recently started. Rubina Lal, a lecturer at SNDT and chairperson of the advisory board of the above institute feels there is no awareness in our society about autism. She calls for Government intervention in bringing about better understanding among parents.

Printer friendly version The movement for inclusive education Callous school managements and over-anxious parents of abled children are barring 90% of India's 40 million disabled children from entering the nation's classrooms says Gaver Chatterjee. April 2003 - In an uncaring society which has earned a notorious global reputation for hypocritical piety and institutionalised neglect of the poor and disadvantaged, it’s the ultimate cruelty. Across the subcontinent 90 percent of India’s estimated 40 million children aged four-16 years with physical and mental disabilities are out of school. And the overwhelming majority of them are vagabonds not out of volition but because callous school managements and over-anxious parents of abled children in a travesty of humanity and social justice have consistently discouraged them from entering the nation’s classrooms. Social justice and equity which are dominant sentiments of the Constitution of India demand that India’s 35 million physically disabled, if not the 5 million mentally challenged, children should be given preferential access into primary and secondary schools. Instead nine-tenths of them are systematically excluded. The cover of this conspiracy of exclusion of challenged children from the education system was dramatically blown in mid March when Star TV and several newspapers reported the refusal of every school — government and private — in Kerala (officially India’s most literate state) to admit seven-year-old Benson and his five-year-old sister Bensy, whose parents died of AIDS. Though it’s well-known that the HIV-AIDS virus is not communicable, both children were dismissed from the Kaithakuzhi Government Lower Primary School after the school’s parent-teachers association backed by villagers launched a stir for their expulsion. Opinions voiced by doctors and social workers to the effect that there was no risk of other students in the class contracting AIDS were ignored. And following the example of this government school every other school has refused to admit Benson and Bensy.

Siblings of Children with Disabilities (April 2002) The ERIC Clearinghouse on Disabilities and Gifted Education (ERIC EC) The Council for Exceptional Children 1110 N. Glebe Rd. Arlington, VA 22201-5704 Toll Free: 1.800.328.0272 E-mail: ericec@cec.sped.org Internet: http://ericec.org How are children affected by having a brother or sister with a disability? What support can be provided to siblings of students with disabilities? A short list of opportunities observed by parents and brothers and sisters could include: the insights a sibling will have on the human condition: the maturity many brothers or sisters develop; the pride brothers and sisters report in their sibling's abilities; the loyalty brothers and sisters display toward their siblings and families; and the appreciation many brothers and sisters have for their good health and own families. Below are suggestions for parents and service providers to minimize siblings' concerns and maximize their opportunities: Provide brothers and sisters with age-appropriate information. Most brothers and sisters have a life-long, and ever-changing need for information. Parents and service providers have an obligation to proactively provide siblings with helpful information. Agencies representing specific disabilities and illnesses should be challenged to prepare materials specifically for young readers. Provide siblings with opportunities to meet other siblings of children with special needs. For most parents, the thought of "going it alone," without the benefit of knowing another parent in a similar situation is unthinkable. Yet, this happens routinely to brothers and sisters. Sibshops and similar efforts offer siblings the same common-sense support that parents value. They let brothers and sisters know that they are not alone with their unique joys and concerns.
