Recently, two MyRight staff members were in Bolivia to meet our partner organisations. Bolivia is a country where <\/span>People with disabilities face significant barriers on several levels. Many cities and public spaces are inaccessible, severely limiting freedom of movement. Discrimination and social attitudes create exclusion. For example, prejudices often lead to people with disabilities not having the same opportunities for education and work as others. Many schools have neither the resources nor the knowledge to provide accessible education for students with special needs. Many people also feel that access to health care and rehabilitation is limited, especially outside the major cities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Parents who have children with disabilities also receive no support from the state, leaving them to do everything themselves. Some have to stop working because their children need round-the-clock help. Others are forced to work several jobs at the same time to make ends meet so that their children receive the support they need. During the trip, we saw many examples of the important work our partner organisations are doing to break down these barriers and enable a more inclusive environment for everyone in Bolivia. You can read about some of them below.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Through MyRight, organisations not only receive financial support, but also a network of other organisations to learn from and exchange with. We also provide training to strengthen their activities. This time, we held a workshop for all organisations on Outcome harvesting, a way of measuring and evaluating the results of the work you do. Having black and white evidence of what you actually achieve is very valuable, it creates a sense of pride and allows you to plan better and work more efficiently.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

We are impressed by the work that these organisations manage to carry out in Bolivia, despite the great challenges they often face. We thank them for their hospitality and look forward to continuing to follow their work.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Those active in the FECOPDIS organisation do not have it easy. Even their own organisation's premises are not accessible, with high thresholds making it difficult to get in with a wheelchair. But they're not going to let any barriers stop them, either physical or structural. One of their important achievements is that the Departmental Law for Persons with Disabilities (Law No. 1080) in Cochabamba, Bolivia has been adopted this year. It aims to ensure the rights, accessibility and inclusion of persons with disabilities. <\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Every Saturday, the organisation APTV-PCDI\/M organises dances for young people with intellectual disabilities in a park in the town of Tarija. Participants learn different traditional Bolivian dances and gain an important social context.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
