What is the Disability Action Council?
The Disability Action Council (DAC) is a permanent body made up of
representatives from the Cambodian Government as well as from non-governmental
aid organisations who are committed to working for the well-being of
Cambodia's people with disabilities (PWD). Our mission is to initiate,
secure and coordinate the services necessary for people with disabilities,
and to enable them to enjoy the same rights to opportunities for employment
and quality of life as others in society.
We do not deliver services directly to people with disabilities. Instead, our role is to work hand-in-hand with all groups working with PWD. At the same time, we act in a professional advisory capacity to the Cambodian Government's policy-makers and legislators on all issues affecting the welfare of PWD.
By bringing together government, national and international organisations, business, religious organisations and local communities, the DAC aims to facilitate the continuous evolution of a comprehensive national approach to rehabilitation, equalisation of opportunities, and prevention of disabilities.
