INTRODuCTION

Our visionA world in which all forms of disabilities can be prevented, cared for or integrated, and in which the rights of people with disabili-ties are respected and applied.

Our objectives in ChinaHandicap International has been working in China since 1998. Our objective is to promote the rights and socio-economic in-clusion of people with disabilities, especially in poor rural areas, trough pilot projects run in close cooperation with government and civil society partners as well as associations of people with disabilities. Current projects are located in guangxi, sichuan, Tibet , qinghai and Beijing.

Handicap International is an international solidarity organization specialized in the field of disability. Non-governmental, non-religious, non-political and non-profit making, it works alongside people with disabilities, whatever the context, offering them assistance and supporting them in their efforts to become self-reliant.

The organization was created in France in 1982 and is now active in more than 60 countries. In 1997, the organization received, as a co-founder of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, the Nobel Prize of Peace for its action in favor of the victims of landmines.

Although the standard of living has significantly improvedoverthelast30yearsduetoefficientreformsleadingtorapideconomic growth, the number of poor people in China remains very high. According to a recent World Bank Report1 , more than 250 million people are still living in extreme poverty2 and inequalities are growing. In this context, persons with disabilities represent one of the most vulnerable groups, disability being a cause and a consequence of poverty. The “second China national sample survey on disability” (2006) estimates that there are more than 83 million persons with disabilities in China and that more than 75% of them live in rural areas. The survey further estimates that only 33% of persons with disabilities needing rehabilitation services have access to such services and that the illiteracy rate of persons with disabilities aged 15 or above is only around 40%. As a consequence, the average annual income per person with disabilities is currently less than half of the average national annual income per person.

The challenges are enormous and the Chinese government has initiated a series of concrete actions to improve the situation. In June2008,Chinawasoneofthefirstcountriesintheworldtoratify the united Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The government has since then initiated several new regulations and policies to comply with the requirements of the Convention and social security for persons with disabilities will be one of the main pillars of the next 5-year action plan (2011- 2015) of the China Disabled Persons Federation. The new policies however do not yet reach the most isolated and poorest populations of the country and there is an urgent need for more specialists working in the field of disability (physiotherapists,occupational therapists, speech therapists, social workers…).

In this context, the objective of Handicap International in China is to work alongside with government and civil society partners to provide direct support to the most vulnerable groups in the poorest areas of the country and lobby for more policies targeting those areas. Handicap International is currently working in close collaboration with the Disabled Persons Federations in the Autonomous Regions of Tibet and guangxi as well as in the provinces of sichuan and qinghai. Projects aim to develop more inclusive development policies where the rights of persons with disabilities for equal participation are respected.Concreteactionsinthefieldofdisabilityprevention,physical rehabilitation, access to education for children with disabilities, access to employment and social integration are

currently ongoing. We are also continuing to provide medical rehabilitation to the survivors of the sichuan and qinghai earthquakes and support their social inclusion. On top of these field activities, we participate to provincial and national levelworkshops and research for the improvement of social protection and access to services for persons with disabilities, together with government stakeholders, academic institutions and civil society representatives. We also support the development of local associations of persons with disabilities to provide services to their members and advocate for their rights.

In 2010, we participated to the shanghai World Expo by animating an interactive session on barriers to accessibility for people with disabilities in the Pavilion of the European union.

On top of activities related to the improvement of the living conditions of persons with disabilities in China, Handicap International also communicates in China on the global awareness and advocacy campaigns of the organization, suchas the International Campaign to Ban the use of Landmines and cluster Munitions. In December 2009, we organized a pressconference and a photo exhibition on this topic in Beijing, which was very well received by local media.

All those achievements would not be possible without the commitment and professionalism of Handicap International’s staff and I would like to thank them for their continuous generosity and motivation in improving the situation of people with disabilities. I would like also to thank our different governmental and non-governmental partners as well as our donors without whom our activities would not be possible.

PHysICALREHABILITA-TION

Tang yonghong

When the earthquake struck at 14.28 pm. (12 May 2008), Tang Yonghong was sleeping with her 6-year old daughter. While her daughter could escape from the house on time, she could not and suffered a spinal cord injury. she is now wheelchair bounded and has received intensive rehabilitation support from Handicap International teams. she now reflectsontheprogressshehasmade:“In the beginning, I needed to be lifted in and out of bed. Now I can transfer my-self and I can also lift the front wheels of the wheelchair, which means I can get up slopes and kerbs. – This was impos-sible in the past.”

Tang Yong hong still receives home vis-its from Handicap International in order to address on-going medical and social needs. Being supported for home modi-ficationsandaninterestfreeloanfromHandicap International towards pig-raising, means that Tang Yong Hong can now be more independent in her daily life.

INCLusION

The objective is to improve the social inclusion of persons with disabilities and their families into the community, following the Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) Approach developed by the world Health Organization, the International Labor Organization and UNESCO. CBR is a strategy within general community developm-ent for rehabilitation, equalization of opportunities and social inclusion of all children and adults with disabilities. The overall objective is to ensure that people with disabilities are able to maximize their physical and mental abilities, have access to regular services and opportunities, and to become active contributors to the community.

Handicap International is currently implementing such project in 8 pilot areas in Guangxi Tibet, and Sichuan. The experience gained in those projects is also being consolidated and shared with the national Disabled Persons Federation.

“BETTER ACCEssIBILITy”

“Better City Better Life!” is the theme of the 2010 shanghai World Expo where Handicap International, with the support oftheEuropeanUnionandSanofiAventis,organized twoevents in2010.Thegoalof those events was to demonstrate that a better city is also a city where there are no barriers for persons with disabilities. The events showed that disabling situa-tions are not only the result of the physi-cal, sensorial or intellectual impairments of the persons but also the result of en-vironmental barriers. It showed that dis-ability is a concept that varies according to the context and environment in which a person is and that disabling situations are the result of interaction between im-pairments and environmental barriers.

“INCLusION THROUGH SPORTS”

Access to sport and leisure is an impor-tant component of the Community Based Rehabilitation Approach. In August 2008, Handicap International, with the support of the Belgian Embassy in China, invited disabled children and teenagers from guangxi, sichuan and Tibet to attend to the Paralympics and meet some of the athletes of the Belgian Paralympic Team, in the presence of HRH Princess Astrid of Belgium. This was a unique opportunity for those children and teenagers to ex-change with the athletes on how sport contributes to rehabilitation and social inclusion and on differences in percep-tion of disability in China and Europe

“PROMOTING GENDER EQUALITY!”

According to the China sampling survey on Disability (2006), women with disabil-ities have less access to education and employment than men with disabilities, especially in rural area. Handicap Interna-tional is therefore taking particular care to promote gender equality and empow-erment of women via its projects.

In April 2010, Handicap International was honored to receive a private donation from Madam Neelie Kroes, Vice Presi-dent of the European Commission. The donation will be used to promote women emancipation in society and specificallyto support to girls and women with dis-abilities in China.

The goal is to empower persons with disabilities to be active members of their communities and influence local decision makers to be more inclusive for people with disabilities in their policies. Those projects include the creation of self-help groups, the promotion of participation of persons with disabilities to decision making and the set-up of community disability action plans using participatory approaches.

mainstream schools.

Tibet• 65 children were included in mainstream schools• 70 staffs from 3 pilot schools were trained on

inclusive education techniques

guangxi• 25 additional were well included in both special

Access to vocational training and employment The goal is to improve livelihood of persons with disabilities, by providing better access to mainstream and specialized vocational training and providing them with micro-credit to develop income generating activities. The project also includes ensuring a better continuum of services between school, vocational and professional education and employment.

“people with disabilities in the pilot areas of the

project have set up their local associations and

exchanged on their production skills, problems and

difficulties . Based on that , they made their own deci-

sion based on their needs. On top of the improvement

of their economic situation , they have increased their

participation in local social life”

Lan TangzhongLanTangzhong,a6yearsoldoutgoingboywithChinese character lifting in hands, is talking to his classmates. Can you imagine that about one year ago, he cannot walk and sit because of cerebral palsy? What disappointed to his family most is that he was even rejected to go to school.

Handicap International, when heard this news, took the responsibility to take care his daily life and sent him to the kindergarten. gradually, he can walk, go up and down stairs and speak more clearly. Now, he even can run and jump. We are so excited about his progress.“This is really the happiest thing for my whole family!”

Support to the development of disabilityfocused civil society organizations and associations of persons with disabilities On top of working with Government partners, Handicap International is sup-porting civil society organizations specialized in the field of disability as well as associations of persons with disabilities, in order to ensure more participation of persons with disabilities in decisions concerning them. Our supports include training in association governance, management as well as technical expertise in the field of disability.

ugeonOne of my ears becomes deaf when I was in grade six of primary school.

From then on, I changed from an outgoing, active class leader to be a lonely and quiet girl.

I even lost the interest in studying.It is really hurt when people call me “little deaf leader” instead of “little girl leader”.

2001 is a very special year to me when I joined the Tibetan Deaf Association sign Language Project.Irealizedthatwithadisability,westillshould trust ourselves and work hard.

Main Events, Conference and Seminars organized or supported in 2009 and 2010

International Forum on Social Security and Social Service for People with Disabilities

Mainorganizer:ChinaDisabledPersonsFederationDate: 1st ~ 3rd Dec, 2009

Location:GuangzhouMain advocacy message (abstracted from Handicap International China director’s speech):“The challenge is to provide the necessary benefits and services to

people with disabilities while avoiding that too many people become

dependent on the long term on those benefits. It is to find the right

balance between providing benefits that allow more people to access

quality services to become autonomous and providing long-term living

allowances for persons with disabilities who cannot be fully autono-

mous.”

Forum on social welfare and services for Adult people with intellectual and psychiatric disabilities

Mainorganizer:ChineseAcademyofSocialSciencesDate: 24th Nov, 2009Location: BeijingMain advocacy message (abstracted from Handicap International China director’s speech): “on top of setting-up a social assistance mechanism, it is equally im-

portant to improve access to mainstream and specialized quality ser-

vices for persons with disabilities. There is indeed in China a huge

shortage of qualified disability specialists. The professions of physio-

therapists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, physiologists,

psychiatrics and social workers are not enough being promoted.”

Another challenge for China will be to find adapted solutions for rural

areas where 75% of the disabled population leave. In those areas, on

top of the official Government social security systems and services,

community-based initiatives taken by the private sector and the civil

society to empower persons with disabilities need to be further pro-

moted. Those include local solidarity funds, local strategies to improve edu-

cation for all, micro-credit and grassroots income generating strategies.

Knowledge management is an important component of the ad-vocacy strategy of Handicap International in China. We devel-oped a web resource called “Disability China” where users can easily access and search for relevant regulations, reference texts and training materials on disability, in Chinese and in English.

Awareness rasing compaign through media Handicap International China is also actively collaborating with the media to promote a better inclusion of people with disabili-ties. In 2009 and 2010, stories mentioning projects of Handi-cap International China were mentioned in more than 280 media releases. We would like to thank those different media for their support.

Fatal FootprintOn top of its advocacy activities related to its projects in China, Handicap International is also introducing the global advocacy campaigns of the organization to China. One ofthose campaigns is the International Campaign to Ban the the use of Landmines. In December 2009, together with the French Cultural Center in Beijing, the Remin university, g2studio and ETWORC, Handicap International presented the photo exhibition Fatal Footprint. This exhibition was of-ficiallyopenedbytheambassadorsofFranceandBelgiumtoChina as well as representatives from the China Arms Control and Disarmament Association and survivors from landmines from Vietnam. This exhibition revealed the strength that an-imates landmines and cluster muntions survivors and that pushes them to move forward and overcome the sequels of the accident. The exhibition was reported by more than 50 medias from China and abroad.
