Disabled Welfare in India
Abstract: Disability welfare encompasses policies, programs, and services aimed at ensuring the social, economic, and political inclusion of persons with disabilities. It seeks to address barriers related to health care, education, employment, accessibility, and social participation, thereby promoting equality and human dignity. This abstract examines the evolution of disability welfare from a charity-based approach to a rights-based framework grounded in social justice and inclusion. It highlights the role of governments, non-governmental organizations, and international conventions in safeguarding the rights of persons with disabilities. Despite significant progress, challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, social stigma, limited awareness, and gaps in policy implementation persist. Strengthening disability welfare requires inclusive policy design, community participation, and effective monitoring mechanisms. Ensuring equal opportunities for persons with disabilities is essential not only for individual empowerment but also for sustainable and inclusive societal development.
