See the ability, not the disability


Saksham aims to support and introduce healthy individuals and physically challenged people to new technologies for their betterment. It also focuses on spreading awareness among them regarding the laws and policies which can be used as an aid so that they can be choosers of their destiny. If provided with the right support at the right time, disabled people can become the choosers of their destiny, and providing that support is a collective responsibility of all citizens, govt, NGOs, and service providers.

We tend to take things for granted, create separation in our worlds and ignore the very existence of people with disabilities. People with disabilities are pushed aside in most domains, from education to basic hospitality and job opportunities. Awareness of this issue can be spread through media, entertainment, and initiatives such as SAKSHAM. Significant changes begin from the roots that are children. Thus, this mindset should be passed on as family values so that society gradually learns to accept and appreciate differences in physiology.

It always starts with one's yearn to bring about a change!





Sessions


This social initiative will consist of a series of sessions aimed at raising awareness about disabilities along with providing support to those who are impacted by them, including those based on laws and policies (aimed at making lives easier for those with disabilities), new technologies that can be used for treatment and streamlining everyday lives as well as motivational sessions to emphasise that with the right outlook and support, one can achieve whatever they want.
