That takes into consideration the
special needs of not only persons living with Disabilities, but also old
persons, nursing mothers, children, the sick and basically everybody.
This decision comes against the
backdrop of a sudden call for awareness noticed with most buildings, to be
precise public buildings in the social space that mostly in recent times does
not take into consideration the special needs of the people and their social welfare.
As a social change bringer and
advocate for people with special needs Awa Jacques Chirac M. Program manager
for the Socio Economic Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (SEEPD) in an
exclusive interview with the Executive Director of World Echoes Media Group
Tamukong Roland Angong ahead of 2023 International Day of Persons with
Disabilities, declared his action plans to cause government officials,
government institutions, the civil society, NGOs, Mayors, MPs, Senators ,Hospitals,
school owners and proprietors, the
church, decision and policy makers business operators and most especially
builders or engineers etc. to take
special note, special needs and why not considerations before putting up,
erecting or supervising a building under
construction for its special needs to
everybody.
Meaning buildings in the North
West Region and Cameroon in general should start taking special consideration of
the collective needs of everybody and must be accessible by all without stress
and must be all inclusive.
What the CBC Health/SEEPD Scribe is
advocating for, is the rights of persons living with disabilities, saying, that time has come under the sun for laws on
promoting people’s rights with disabilities kept in cupboards and seldom
implemented to be brought back into normal life situation and put into daily
practice at all levels.
That is why SEEPD Program Manager
on a second thought, mindful of all the abuse and the gross violation of social
rights to access for persons with disabilities and others has taken upon
himself this December 3rd 2023 a special year of our lord to carry out a week
long awareness and sensitization campaign that will cut across the media,
through government, the church, the civil society, in the communities and homes
to enforce the special need and call for collective social inclusion.
What we are saying is that the
SEEPD program Manager under the CBC Health service working for over 50 years with
the general experience in promoting inclusive development and the CBM is
determined and has taken commitment to not only call for as usual but to do a
proper follow up this year to oversee a general turn around for collective
inclusion.
This year’s international day for
persons with disabilities will be celebrated
under the theme “A DAY FOR ALL”
which calls for the special consideration of every body and everyone’s wish.
Doing justice to everyone and
most especially the needy and disable persons the Program Manager for SEEPD has
taken commitment and undertaking to more than ever before fight against the
gross abuse generally going on in town with constructions for the protection of
right to access for everyone most especially those with disabilities and
special needs.
