Abstract [eng] Non-governmental organisations are one of the key aspects for a progressive society. Non-governmental organisations are voluntary groups, initiated and created by a non-governmental body, who’s purpose is to ensure people’s (organisation members) needs are addressed. a person with any type of disability should be able to be politically and socially active and disability is not a reason to exclude an individual from the society. However, due to stereotypes and negative public attitude towards people with disability, disabled people face attitudinal barriers with the society. Non - government organisations supporting people with disability aim to help those individuals to regain their self esteem and build and strengthen their skills.
