Vanuatu’s first Community Rehabilitation Worker (CRW).

Vanuatu is fortunate to have its first ever CRW to study on the specific field of disability, the Fiji school of medicine has develop a new field of studies based on the disability accept of life. The course started last year 2009 and is slowly progressing, however with sponsorship aid from the AusAid, Vanuatu is lucky to enrolled its first ever students to undertake the program (CCDR)Certificate in community Disability and Rehabilitation, Mrs. Marinette Twomy and Mr. Knox Morris from the Vanuatu Society for Disable People and Mr. Pallen Philip from World Vision Vanuatu. With the skills and the knowledge they have gathered during the one year of studies, the Vanuatu’s disability citizens will finally have people to bridge the barrier that is between them to rehabilitate, socially communicate for them, include them and have someone manage their life to live to the fullest. Hopes are for more students to undertake these studies in the future to come.
