Disability Report in Lebanon: Where do we stand regarding the application of Law 220/2000, and admitting the rights of the disabled people in Lebanon?

After the United Nations decreed every 3rd December as International Day of Disabled Persons, this date has been transformed into a yearly occasion for organizing activities to benefit disabled persons. So as not to convert these activities into a folkloric tradition which would make the occasion lose its importance, The Lebanese Council of Disabled People (LCDP) decided to make it an occasion for presenting a yearly report evaluating the conditions of disabled persons in Lebanon with the aim of determining what has and has not been achieved regarding the implementation of Law 220/2000 concerning disabled persons and their integration in the main stream life of the Lebanese society. The report seeks to show all the contributions, policies and programs pertaining to disabled persons undertaken by both the public and private sectors.
