“Disability is an umbrella term for impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions.”The total population of PWDs (5.035 million) in Pakistan is astonishingly more than the population of any of the individual countries of Norway, New Zealand, Lebanon, or Kuwait. From within Pakistan, the PWDs population is more than the combined population of three cities i.e. Multan, Hyderabad, and Peshawar.
HHCS in partnership with other associated organizations and partners frequently organize and participate in different advocacy events to aware of and advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities. These events have been helpful to create a sense of empowerment among PWDs and develop a sense of responsibility among communities and government toward the rights of PWDs. These events include International Wheel Chair Day, International Disability Day Seminar on Community Based Rehabilitation Programs, and inclusive games.
