About the product

With respect to the reduction of the physical barriers to the inclusion of persons with disabilities into mainstream community life, one essential avenue is increasing the availability of appropriate, high-quality, low-cost assistive devices. This publication provides information on the indigenous production and distribution of assistive devices in the Asia and the Pacific developing countries. These five volumes cover the following areas: a regional review, proceedings of a technical workshop, a directory of assistive-devices producers, a listing of international and national mandates and technical specifications for the production of assistive devices.
