Disability Equality Training
In order to promote an understanding of the Disability Equality Training (DET) for various stakeholders in provincial parts of Thailand, APCD allowed participants in DET Training of Trainers (TOT), conducted 5 days in July 2007 to design a one day curriculum and implement it with their target groups in different provinces in Thailand as a DET Extension Campaign. The target groups and areas involved were:
- Loei Province, 17 July 2007: Targets are members of Child and Youth Council
- Nakornsrithammarat Province, 24 July 2007: Targets are representatives from Huasai Sub-district Administrative Organizations (SAO) and Organization on Disability Development
- Chieng Mai province, 8 August 2007: Target groups include lecturers in the university, representatives from local mass media, SAO and persons with disabilities
- Chaiyabhumi province, 21 August 2007: Targets are social development volunteers for disabled persons
Main activities in the DET extensions were Lecture based on disability model which are Charity Model, Medical Model and Social Model, and information/experience sharing.
Outputs of the seminars in 4 provinces were reconciled to the objectives of the program. The participants gained information on the rights of PWDs and awareness of social disability model.
In order for APCD to analyze strength, weakness, opportunity and threat (SWOT) of the whole program, and pursue the effectiveness of the course in the future, APCD conducted DET Evaluation meeting on 28, 29 August 2007, which resource persons, holders and other stakeholders can share lessons and brainstorm for an appropriate curriculum of DET in the context of Thai society.
