Capacity building on rehabilitation practice with children with disabilities for members of Rehabilitation International (RI) in Asia (Second Phase)
The Hong Kong Society for Rehabilitation received support and sponsorship from the Rehabilitation International Social Commission (RI Social Commission), Asia Trust, Hong Kong Rehabilitation Trust Fund and Shun Hing Education and Charitable Foundation Co., Ltd., and started the second phase of the project in June 2023. Besides working with Child Welfare Scheme Nepal (CWSN), this time we have also extended the project to the Philippines, with Kaisaika Inc. Kaisaka is a parent self-help organization serving children with disabilities in Manila. CWSN also extended its activities to Tanahun.
Same as Phase 1, the goal of the project is to improve the knowledge and skills of the community staff and parents, in order to promote the activities and participation of local children with disabilities. The training aims at solving the problems faced by local children with disabilities, including eating, swallowing, position adjustment and movement, and sensory integration.
