Disability in Sierra Leone : ウィキペディア英語版 | Disability in Sierra Leone According to the World Health Organization, an estimated 15% of the world’s population experience some form of disability or impairment.〔(World Report on Disability ). (PDF) . Retrieved on 2014-04-28.〕 The proportion of disabled people is much higher in Sierra Leone, a West African country which had emerged from a decade-long civil war back in 2002 where the trademark of the rebel groups was to hack off the limbs of civilians. It is estimated that there are about 450,000 disabled people in Sierra Leone, although this number may be an under-representation. Common disability issues include blindness, deafness, war wounded including amputees, and polio.〔 == Socioeconomics == In a 2009 study of disability in Sierra Leone, one third of the disabled people surveyed were employed while twice as many disabled people (16.4%) had no access to healthcare as compared to non-disabled people (7.1%). In addition, according to the United Nations Development Programme, only 35% of Sierra Leone’s population above 15 years of age is educated and the statistic is even lower for citizens with disabilities. Poor people are also more at risk of acquiring a disability due to a lack of access to sanitation as well as a safe living and working environment.
