Infos

Bangladesh is one of the most poverty stricken developing countries in south-east Asia. The country faces immense problems of persons with disabilities, but the main problems are not yet prioritized. According to the World Bank estimates, about 15% of the population in Bangladesh consists of persons with disabilities and the number is increasing day by day. It is evident that persons with disabilities are more likely to experience economic and social disadvantages than those without disability in Bangladesh. This book illustrates the livelihood pattern of those persons with disabilities living in Dhaka City.

Sheikh Abir Hossain has completed his Bachelor and Master degree from the Institute of Social Welfare and Research, University of Dhaka, Bangladesh in Social Welfare. At present, he is working as a Staff Researcher in the BRAC Institute of Educational Development, BRAC University, Bangladesh. He is keenly interested in different issues related with social science and education.
