(via Humanitarian Issues: Safeguarding people with disabilities during emergencies | OCHA)
This is a significant issue and it’s good to see organisations considering how they adjust their practices to meet different needs.
Jesus used the phrase “as you do to the least of these, so you do to me” in one of his stories. In emergency situations where the disabled are often pushed aside, they represent the “least.”
Because of the unique nature of their situation I love and wholeheartedly endorse the work of cbm.
