The "Qaderoon Bekhtelaf" Fund launches a new program to integrate people with disabilities across 25 Egyptian governorates
The "Qaderoon Bekhtelaf" Fund recently announced the launch of the "Best Buddies Egypt" program across 25 governorates nationwide. This initiative comes as part of the state's ongoing efforts to support people with disabilities and enhance their effective participation in Egyptian society.
The program primarily aims to train volunteers and equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills to interact correctly with people with disabilities. The initiative's organizers also seek to empower volunteers to design and implement various awareness activities that reach different segments of society.
The program's concept is based on spreading a culture of inclusion, which is an important step toward ensuring that people with disabilities receive their full rights in education, employment, and social life. Through these activities, the Fund hopes to break down social barriers and build bridges of human connection among all members of society.
This step is part of a broader strategy adopted by Egypt to address the needs of people with disabilities, as the state seeks to provide an inclusive environment that ensures them a decent life. It is expected that this program will contribute to changing the societal perception of disability and fostering values of acceptance and mutual respect among citizens in all governorates.
