‘Everyone, including persons with disability, has a right to live with dignity, grace and freedom.
Each one needs a conducive environment – both attitudinal and physical – to realize one’s inherent Samarthya(capability).’ – Anjlee Agarwal
Persons
with disabilities (PwDs) encounter hardships in their day-to-day
life while visiting public utility places, using various public
transportation and places of recreation. ACCESS is the core
issue for attaining one’s full potential, capability
and integrating PwDs into the main stream.’ - Sanjeev
Sachdeva
Samarthya was founded by Ms. Anjlee Agarwal and Mr. Sanjeev
Sachdeva (both persons with muscular dystrophy and assisted
wheel chair users). The duo are trained by United Nations
Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP)
