International Day of Persons with Disabilities
- 3 December
On this occasion, the ICRC Special Fund for the Disabled is emphasizing that the physical rehabilitation needs of people with disabilities are under-addressed and rarely considered a priority.
Claude Le Coultre, chairwoman of the SFD: "It is important that these people are given the chance to become independent and able to support themselves."
Also, this year, the ICRC Special Fund for the Disabled is celebrating 25 years of helping people to walk and work again.
