This manual is based on Oxfam's experience working with local disabled people's organisations before, during and after the recent crisis in Kosovo. Case studies from West Africa and South and East Asia also show how the principles and training can be translated to a wide range of political and social contexts. It suggests practical materials useful for trainers working in geographically isolated areas without access to sophisticated equipment. Most of the activities and exercises can be adapted for use in groups of people with a wide range of impairments and educational levels. The text is written in clear and simple language
This Companion aims to support Oxfam staff to integrate disaster risk reduction (DRR) into their work on livelihoods and food security. It is one of a series of documents providing information about DRR and climate change adaptation (CCA)
