CIAI (Italian Association for Aid to Children) is a non-political and non-sectarian NGO (non-governmental organization) that, since 1968, has been working to promote the recognition of the child as a person and to defend everywhere their fundamental rights. APCD promotes the empowerment of persons with disabilities and a barrier-free society in developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region, and supports relevant organizations on disability to network, share information and develop human resources toward empowerment of persons with disabilities and having a barrier-free society in developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
CIAI and APCD aim an inclusive community for persons with disabilities in Thailand, through the implementation of a twin track approach to disability. Both organizations are about to start a project focused both on the need to reinforce the capacities of competent local authorities and service providers to eliminate barriers to inclusion for persons with disabilities, and on the need to strengthen PWDs' capacities to demand inclusion and participate in developing inclusive strategies. Specifically, the action aims at enabling local authorities and representatives of civil society to promote the participation of persons with disabilities in the social and economic life of their communities through the application of the Community-Based Inclusive Development (CBID) methodology in 4 different regions and specifically in the North (Phayao Province), Northeast (Sisaket Province), Central (Kanchanaburi Province), and South (Nakhon Si Thammarat Province).
