Do not neglect or segregate children with disabilities or special needs
- Target:
- Ugandan Government
- Region:
- Uganda
Children with disabilities / special needs in Uganda are looked at as outcasts. They are being neglected by both their caretaker/parents, and the community as well.
Most of them are locked inside houses and others are tied on poles with ropes. All this is because they do not want other people to easily notice that in a certain home, there is a child with disability/special needs
In Uganda, there aren't any sound special needs schools due to lack of funds to run these schools.
Caretakers, parents, guardians, the community, and the government of Uganda should stop neglecting or segregating children with disabilities/special needs in Uganda.
These children should be supported and educated.
