    Om programmet

    Persons with disabilities are hugely marginalized in Bolivia and the whole topic is a taboo in the public discourse. This organization
    has its headquarters in the center of the city but the actual work they do is in the outskirts of Cochabamba and in the countryside
    where they offer physiotherapy to children and adults. Most patients suffer from neurological problems such as brain paralysis or
    physical paralysis (both complete and partial paralysis). They also offer legal advice and education on human rights and rights of
    persons with disabilities. They have a well-organized and professional team with a lot of dedication to the work they are doing. You
    can help this organization by giving physiotherapy, workshops or help raising awareness – depending on your Spanish skills. You will
    be able to help different local communities by addressing the main themes to this project: empowerment, prevention and rehabilitation.
    Also giving English lessons to staff and patients themselves is more than welcome here. A minimum period to get started here is 6
    weeks.

    Possible tasks:

    • Supporting the rehabilitation and independence of people with disabilities
    • workshops with an emphasis on early detection and prevention of disability, to health personnel and teachers of primary and secondary schools developing
    • workshops in the municipalities to provide technical support to the organization
    •  conducting evaluations of the staff and their work
    •  developing and providing educational material about human rights and the importance of the inclusion and participation of people with disabilities.

    Typisk dag

    Monday morning after breakfast, you will meet up with the staff and the week-trips are planed. There are therapists and a lawyer, administration and volunteers coming together. The work trips to the surrounding rural areas normally take up a whole day. The villages are hard to reach and it may take you 1-3 hours. Here the people normally await the team with their kids to receive therapy-sessions and get instructed on exercises they can do at home. They also receive support on rights for persons with disabilities and get workshops on community based initiatives to barrier free techniques. Later you will have to evaluate the visit for planing the next trip. Write a report and document your work to publish on social media.
