Julia Samantha Edima Instagram – World Disability Day 👩🏽🦽🌎 👩🏽🦽
Before, when I heard about the Etoug-Ebé Disabled Center, I
imagined a basic center that welcomes people with
disabilities, helping them in their socio-professional
integration, I saw psychological support from which these
people would benefit necessarily. But it’s much more than
that, believe me! I was very surprised during my first visit to
the center alongside @misterworldcameroon and the
members of @juliasamanthafoundation, to realize to what
extent our country is widely equipped in terms of
rehabilitation tools and psychological monitoring in this
center.
Secular arm of the State in the holistic care of disability in
Cameroon and Central Africa. The National Center for the
Rehabilitation of Persons with Disabilities Cardinal Paul Emile
Léger, located in Etoug-Ebé, a district of the sixth
arrondissement of the city of Yaoundé, has a plural service
offering, which includes: Psychosocial care, medical-
technical, educational offerings and socio-professional
retraining.
We learned so much from this visit, whether it was a short
course on sign language, the making of plasters, we were
just as moved by the resilience and strength that these
people inspire, their willingness to fight to have a better life
This leads me, on this day dedicated to them, to encourage
everyone to question feelings of stigmatization and rejection
and to cultivate empathy, tolerance and mutual aid.
In addition, everyone can find themselves in a situation of
disability, both physical and mental, no one has certainty
about their condition the next day, treating others as
yourself, with respect and love, drains better energies in your
life 🤲🏽❤️🤲🏽
