What is Disability? |
| |
Disability is not easily conceptualized, and increasingly, it is being recognized as a socio-economic construct that is influenced by differing cultures , social institutions, and physical environments. Disability is caused by a wide range of interacting aspects like communicable diseases, genetic factors, injuries, aging and many more. Each disability has its own range of positive causes; the list of disabilities itself is very lengthy, including physical disabilities, cognitive disabilities, vision and hearing problems and mental health disorders, such as depression.

Centre for Empowerment of the Disabled (CED) is therefore setup as a concept to support the disabled people and is directly concern with community empowerment. |
