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."

A very good discussions and presentations, all the issues of rural India included very well. It would be good if some of good Women SHGs  try to reduce the burden of fuel wood and fodder. SHG could ask the possibility of  growing firewood in financially viable way, assess the quantity required for it. home delivery of firewood. use of smokeless stoves and bio gas at home can be discussed and can do planning in at least 2 villages.
