Abstract
STF78 A06004 The National Federation for People with Disabilities in Namibia (NFPDN) has been working actively with the Awareness Building Campaign (ABC) from 2003- 2005. The main objectives of the evaluation have been to assess the impact of the campaign on attitudes towards people with disabilities and disability issues.During the campaign, NFPDN has led several successful events which have brought together stakeholders to discuss disability issues within the Namibian context. The ABC seems to have contributed an important ideological contribution to change the understanding and attitudes of people with disabilities – going from charity to independence. ABC has given local activities on disability issues a nation-wide perspective. There has been good communication with supportive and funding organizations, SAFOD and FFO.
