S01E09: Enabling the 10%
We gain insight into the difficulties faced by physically disabled individuals in Pakistan and explore the current state of our resources and infrastructure available to those who are physically challenged. We meet an extraordinary group of individuals who have defied the odds and grown to achieve incredible feats such as ArshadAbbasi who is the first blind man to pass the CSS exams in Pakistan. We also speak with activists who are not only working to increase awareness about disabilities, but are also lending their support to less-abled individuals in order to help them achieve their full potential.
