Parents, Friends, Professionals and Decision - Makers? Views in the Framework of Living Together with People Living with Disability in Congo
Jean Didier MBELE
Abstract: This paper analyses the care of people living with disabilities under a psychosocial analysis of social links and social ties, with their immediate surroundings and decision - makers. It transpires from this study that people living with disabilities in Congo are victims of social, political, economic, cultural and environmental discriminations. Their individual and global care is insufficient and therefore ineffective. The responsible people in charge of administrative structures for people living with disabilities consider disability as an abnormal physical or mental state, keeping the individual in a total dependence situation. It should be advised to develop strategic solutions which should be both global and differentiated, in terms of protection, promotion and respect of the rights of people living with disabilities.
