F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

RE-INTEGRATION OF WOMEN ACCUSED AS WITCHES INTO THEIR FAMILIES/COMMUNITIES.

In one of the regions of Ghana, women who are accused as witches are driven away (or escape death) in to one of six  'witches' camps in the region. These women most often go to the camps with young girls(children) of school going age.

I am trying to design a communication plan aimed at gradually re-integrating these 'witches' in their families and communities. Any ideas?
